IMDb profile

Boris and Natasha is a 1992 comedy film that was loosely based on the animated television series The Rocky and Bullwinkle Show. The actors did not attempt to copy the accents of their animated counterparts, and although Rocky and Bullwinkle do not appear in this film, they are referred to by the names "Agent Moose" and "Agent Squirrel". This was due to the network's inability to secure the rights to the animated characters' likenesses for this film. This film was produced by Management Company Entertainment Group for Showtime Networks, and originally released to movie theaters by 1992.

[edit] Plot

The movie opens in the tiny country of Pottsylvania, located between the countries Wrestlemania and Yoursovania, where Fearless Leader concocts a plan to obtain a time-reversal microchip. Boris Badenov and Natasha Fatale are the two spies being used as patsies in his plan. Partway through his plot, the duo realizes something is awry, and detour to America to find the base of the real plan. They find themselves knee-deep in a secret assassin operation, topped with exploding potatoes and the temptations of capitalism.
