Manuel São Bento: FULL SPOILER-FREE REVIEW @ https://www.msbreviews.com/movie-reviews/cocaine-bear-review
"COCAINE BEAR offers what one expects from it: an absolutely INSANE bear wreaking gory, bloody havoc while also doing the stupidest things imaginable. A totally nonsensical yet extremely entertaining time wher…
CinemaSerf: OK, so the plot wears a little thin after a while but I really did quite enjoy this daft action adventure film. It all starts with a bloke tossing bags from an aircraft before he clonks his head on the door whilst leaving, mid-air, and next thing the police are identifying the body and a large duffl…
Nathan: After the initial hit of Cocaine Bear, the film left me scratching for something a little stronger.
I think the main drawback of this film is that it is trying to do too much. There are seven to eight characters introduced throughout the course of the film, with each given significant time to dev…
The Movie Mob: **Cocaine Bear delivers ridiculous creature violence on some goofy, short-lived characters, but its lack of consistent tone and identity kept it from being everything I had hoped.**
Let’s start with this: I am a massive fan of lane creature movies – Ghost Shark, Sharknado, Lavalantula, The Sand -…
spidertalk: If you are viewing this film with some of the Oscar flicks in mind then you might see it as terrible. But if you are watching it for some good ole entertainment's sake, then this one is surely not a miss. A definite viewing which will make you smile and horrified at the same time. I loved it as a on…
Louisa Moore – Screen Zealots: There’s a bear high on mass quantities of illegal drugs that is going on a murderous rampage in a Tennessee state park in “Cocaine Bear,” an absolutely awful action / horror movie from director Elizabeth Banks. I understand with a premise like that, it’s supposed to be stupid. The problem is that th…
Wuchak: **_Not funny enough as a comedy and too silly to take serious_**
In 1985, several bags of cocaine fall from a drug smuggling plane in the mountainous area of northern Georgia and eastern Tennessee. Near Blood Mountain, a mother black bear eats a lot of the cocaine and goes on a bloody spree as i…
GenerationofSwine: I got excited for this one, I mean it's 2023 and Cocaine Bear had the promise of NOT being political. It had the promise of NOT having meh message. It had the promise of NOT being serious.
I mean, the bear was obviously the star. People were going to see it because they wanted to see a giant b…
Peter McGinn: To say that Cocaine Bear isn’t the usual style of movie I like to watch is an understatement. My wife thought it had been involved in Academy Award talk of some kind and suggested we give it a try. Not sure where the Oscar talk came from but we stuck with it, barely. The violence is that excessive s…
hamfaceman: This movie wasn't great. Had a good sequence with the ambulance, but other than that it was pretty overhyped and was just trying to cash in on a provocative name. The ad campaign for this movie was successful so congrats to them on that.
r96sk: Some good death sequences aside, <em>'Cocaine Bear'</em> largely bores.
I do like how many of the characters go out, in ways that are quite creative in fairness. The rest of the 95 minutes though? Underwhelming. There are a few minorly amusing moments scattered in there, though for the majority i…
