Movie Review: Yogi Bear
By Priscilla (2nd grade)
Yogi Bear is funny because when Yogi builds a picnic basket stealer, which is a picnic table but in the middle part is a launcher, so when a picnic basket gets placed on the table, it launches forward and lands on the target tree. There’s a surprise for Yogi. So if you ever saw that movie you would think Yogi is funny, too. I would rate the movie 5 stars. Starring Dan Aykroyd, Justin Timberlake, Tom Cavanaugh, and Ana Farris. Directed by Eric Brevig.
