Hosts Mat Bradley-Tschirgi and Thrasher, and Alex Miller discuss Boris and Natasha: The Movie. Two Pottsylvanian spies infiltrate America whilst followed by mysterious assassins.

The first live-action film based off the 1960s cartoon The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle and Friends, Boris and the Natasha: The Movie premiered on the premium Showtime channel. You have some SCTV favorites (Dave Thomas, John Candy), a brief John Travolta cameo, and elements of spy satire. Too bad the plot's as convoluted as a real spy novel, the America fish out of water story is less interesting than the Pottsylvanian caper that starts the film, and nobody except for the excellent narrator (Corey Burton) plays things at the manic winking pitch the cartoon did.
