Rating: **
Yogi Bear (voice of Aykroyd), who dwells in Jellystone Park with companion (and unheeded voice of reason) Boo Boo (voice of Timberlake), possesses an intelligence that sets him apart from the rest of the ursidae though he channelizes it mainly to steal picnic baskets from visitors much to the chagrin of parks rangers Smith (Cavanagh) and Jones (Miller). Smith has a thing for nature enthusiast/ documentary filmmaker Rachel (Faris) while Jones has ambitions of making it to the top which is exploited by the evil Mayor Brown who intends shut it down the park. After Yogi’s antics fouls up the park’s 100 anniversary celebrations, an infuriated Smith tells him to be just like the other bears, but will Yogi use his smarts to save the park from its doom?
