Title: a caution
Review: The real problem I have with this film is not it's quality or the work that went into it. It's actually better than some movies considered classics, with higher production values than such credible and successful horror movies as "The Blair Witch Project" and the original "Halloween". The problem is with the threat itself. I live in grizzly country, real grizzly country, where these big bears behave much as they did before the continent was tamed. Grizzlies simply don't act the way they do in this film, and not even disease or injury could change that. A rabid animal will succumb to the disease or fight an opponent it can't beat (there aren't many of those for a grizzly), not engage in the prolonged reign of terror depicted in this movie. A pain maddened bear will go off somewhere and die, not on a rampage. Anyone who sees grizzly should keep in mind that this is fiction. I worry that it would justify murdering bears the way "Jaws" has nearly made the great white shark extinct.
