The 2160p resolution allows for a more finely clear and precise picture. There is no mistaking the natural glossy sheen to the image.

Cocaine Bear delivers just about everything that one would expect of a movie called Cocaine Bear: it's gory, irreverent, and it to play to its strengths. At about 90 minutes sans credits, it's very brisk, too, so love or hate what it does, there is no mistaking that the film isDoing Lines - Cast and filmmakers read lines from the script to COCAINE BEAR, which was a work of art unto itself.

Speaking of encountering the titular bear: here’s where Banks finds her biggest success. As expected, this drug-fueled ursine is not only smarter than your average bear, it also harbors the biggest cocaine habit this side of Tony Montana, and will do anything to feed that need. Anything. And really, the film only works whenever the 500-pound flimsily rendered apex predator is on the screen as it slices, dices, rips, and shreds its way through human fodder as it seeks out the next high. While genre lovers will likely wallow in the film’s gonzo attitude and style, it never comes close to being as wild and, ahem… gutsy, as it tries to be. environment, to rip apart. The film delivers exactly what is expected of it, then: a carnival ride through the grisly world of a bear hopped up on gory moments spread out over 90 minutes. The characters are likewise uninteresting, but they are at least played with physical zeal to spare. The

Doing Lines – Cast and filmmakers read lines from the script to COCAINE BEAR, which was a work of art unto itself. All Roads Lead to Cokey: The Making of COCAINE BEAR – Meet the hilarious ensemble brought together to bring the movie of what is soon to be the world’s most famous bear to life. Well, unfortunately, that’s not what we get with Cocaine Bear. Sure, the film gleefully fulfills its basic expectations with cleverly-executed moments of over-the-top death and carnage perpetrated against a cast of Darwin Award winning rubes. And yes, Elizabeth Banks – who directs – shows a deft hand with her many set pieces. bright sunlit areas and shadows is very well pronounced, and the characteristics of each are seamless and share the screen with excellent contrast

The same is said of All Roads Lead to Cokey: The Making of COCAINE BEAR - Meet the hilarious ensemble brought together to bring the movie of what is soon to be the world's most famous bear to life. resolution allows for more intricate clarity that does not make new information appear, but that renders the information that is here more readily All of which means that Cocaine Bear has to work pretty hard to do something that we haven’t seen before, and although we’ve seen animals affected by pesticides, microwaves, laser beams from space and bits of meteors that have dropped in the sea, we haven’t actually seen a wild beast go mad on narcotics. And to a point, we still haven’t because this is 2023 and filmmakers are not going to give actual cocaine to an actual bear (although had this been made in the 1970s by, say, John Milius or Werner Herzog then that is probably what would have happened).

Alternate Ending – In the “not so different, yet it doesn’t make sense” category we’ve got this. About a 20 second “alternate ending” that had me scratching my head. should definitely opt for this, however. The picture and sound qualities are improved to the point of being noticeable and worthwhile. Extras arehunts for its next fix, a handful of humans find themselves in danger, including park ranger Liz (Margo Martindale), Nurse Sari (Keri Russell), As these many and varied subplots intertwine, the bear wreaks more chaos and kills off various characters, leading, sadly, to a pretty foreseeable conclusion. That movie was Grizzly, and along with the likes of Piranha, Squirm, Empire of the Ants, Alligator and Day of the Animals (where an enraged and topless Leslie Nielsen wrestles a bear during a thunderstorm – no, really!) formed a movement of ‘nature run amok’ movies, each successive one being of a lower quality than the last, culminating in the roaring, performing rubber shark of Jaws: The Revenge in 1987. And whilst the deliberately (so they say) bad run of CGI hybrid creature features that SyFy and The Asylum brought to the public’s attention in the 2000s continues to this day, the novelty factor that made them famous has become somewhat nauseating.
