pointyfilippa The movie runs out of plot and jokes well before the end of a two-hour running time, long for a light comedy.
Lucia Ayala It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.
Payno I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
Geraldine The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

Horst in Translation ([email protected]) "Yogi Bear's All-Star Comedy Christmas Caper" is a really long title for a really short film as this is another of these many animated (Christmas) specials from the 1980s. This is one of the very rare directorial efforts by prolific Australian animator Steve Lumley and the script is by Mark Evanier, who is mostly known for his Garfield stuff today. Anyway, as for this one here, you see already from the title that Yogi is in the center of it all, but this is only partially true because he really does not have that much screen time. The other most known character are probably Fred Flintstone and his buddy Barney. The latter is voiced by the legendary Mel Blanc and this is from the last decade of his life in fact. Blanc and the other cast members (including the very prolific Daws Butler) voiced several characters too, well most of them. But that is no surprise because the "All-Star" in the title already says that this film is packed with animated characters. But honestly, most of them are unknown to me, somebody who really has seen a great deal of animated films, and with the little screen time and forgettable material they have, this film sure can't change that. The comedy overall is fairly mediocre gently-speaking. And the wild dangerous animal references (bear, lion) only work for so long. Plus the more dramatic, if you can even say that, part of the plot with the little girl neglected by her rich dad never gets half as emotional as they hoped it would. Anyway, this film is not a failure, but it's far from a good watch or recommendable outcome. Skip it, it's not worth seeing, not even during the holidays.
Michael_Elliott Yogi Bear's All-Star Comedy Christmas Caper (1982) *** (out of 4) Cute made-for-TV special has Yogi and Boo Boo sneaking away from the park to head off to the big city to see some friends. Once there they come across a rich little girl who gets everything from her father except his time and attention. Fans of the Hanna-Barbera characters aren't going to find a great story here but there are so many great characters on display that you can't help be entertained for the majority of the running time. For the most part the story itself isn't anything too original or interesting but it allows the filmmakers to get across a certain message. As you'd expect, the animation is quite good and I thought the film had a very good look that really managed to bring the scenes and characters to life. Not only do we get Yogi and Boo Boo but there's also Augie Doggie, Blabber Mouse, Dixie, Mr. Jinks, Wally Gator, Quick Draw McGraw, Snagglepuss and even Fred and Barney have a cameo.
Shawn Watson The usual gang of Snagglepuss, Huckleberry Hound, and Auggie Doggie & Doggie Daddy head to Jellystone park for Xmas to party with Yogi and Boo-Boo. But he's already headed into the city to party with them. Amid the confusion Yogi ends up hiding from zookeepers by dressing up as a department store Santa where he tries hard to make a little girl's dream come true.The plot is hardly timeless, or even original, but it works well, and has plenty of cameos from Hanna-Barbera stars. If it had been a bit more focused instead of an ensemble effort then it would deserve the title of Xmas Classic, but it's worth a watch as is.
