(More customer reviews)This is the wildest Rocky & Bullwinkle advernture of all, combining lots of action with a premise that remains prescient in the wake of continuing scandals in collegiate athletics.
The University of Wossamatta is running out of money and needs a star player for its football team to draw in spectators. Bullwinkle and Rocky are recruited, and soon their "Alley Oop!" forward passes and Bullwinkle's ability to use his antlers (which are also good for hanging hats on) enable Wossamatta to trounce every team they play.
In step professional gamblers Boris and Natasha. Having spent years breaking things, Boris now will fix - a game. But their first plan winds up only winning Wossamatta another game, so they get the help of Fearless Leader to build their own team, a phalanx of monstrous types known as the Mud City Manglers - and to drive the betting odds even higher they disguise these unspeakable turks as girls!
The funniest parts come as we see bookies all over the country watch in horror as the overwhelmingly favored Wossamatta team is trailing badly to the manglers-in-drag. Eventually, unable to possible pay off Badenov at the odds given, they flee the country - to Pottsylvania.
The only flaw in the tape is that it cuts out some of the funniest lines of the original serial - notably when a Southern type (Paul Frees) browbeats narrator William Conrad for using the title Civil Defense. Nonetheless, you won't watch a football game the same way again after seeing The Bullwinkle Bowl.
