In the Disney-animated adventure Brother Bear, Joaquin Phoenix provides the voice of Kenoia, a young Native American boy whose father is killed by a mother bear protecting her cubs. With revenge in mind, Kenoia sets out into the woods only to find himself magically transformed into a bear himself. Seeing the world through the eyes of his prey, Kenoia is forced to learn a lesson about nature and life. Brother Bear also features the voices of Rick Moranis and Dave Thomas as characters that are reminiscent of their McKenzie brothers from SCTV. Matthew Tobey
