Led by the criminal mastermind Fearless Leader (Robert De Niro),Boris and Natasha have devised a plot to take over the world and, while they’reat it, get rid of moose and squirrel, their long-time foes from Frosbite Falls,better known to millions of adoring fans around the world as Rocky and Bullwinkle.

However, the dim-witted duo have managed to escape the clutches of Boris andNatasha through sheer tenacity and cunning intuition – or maybe they just gotlucky. Teaming up with a rookie F.B.I. agent, Karen Sympathy (Piper Perabo), our eponymous heroes will once again come face to face – or faceto snout – with their dreaded nemeses.
