Yogi Bear, from the Hanna-Barbera cartoon which dates back to 1958, makes the leap to the big screen. A live action film featuring computer-animated wildlife, Yogi is voiced by life-long fan Dan Ackroyd, his sidekick Boo Boo is Justin Timberlake.

When a corrupt mayor announces he'll turn failing Jellystone Park into a logging facility, Yogi and Boo Boo team with Ranger Smith (Tom Cavanagh, TV's Scrubs) and a wildlife documentarian (Anna Faris, The House Bunny) to save their home.

Yogi Bear was shot in New Zealand - Woodhill Forest in Auckland and the Aratiatia rapids in Taupo standing in for Jellystone.

"A bland and innocuous small-fry outing that retains a measure of the original Hanna-Barbera cartoon's charm, though scarcely enough to justify the time, expense and visual-effects trickery it must have taken to inflate an endearing 2D cartoon into a dopey 3D extravaganza."

Variety

"It's nature vs corporate greed in this latest film for Yogi Bear, partially shot here in good ole NZ."

"There's exactly one thing about the misbegotten big-screen Yogi Bear that might make you think back with any fondness to the Hanna-Barbera cartoons on which it's based. That would be Justin Timberlake's charming performance as the voice of Boo-Boo Bear."

The New York Times

"If you have fond memories of Yogi Bear from your childhood, you'd be hard pushed to remember why after watching this big screen revival of the 1960s' Hanna-Barbera series."
