The first reviews for Cocaine Bear are in, and critics are praising the movie for being fun, bloody, and exactly what’s advertised on the tin.
Reviews for Cocaine Bear are now in, with critics loving the movie's self-awareness, humor, and bloody mayhem. Directed by Elizabeth Banks, Cocaine Bear tells the story of a large grizzly who ingests large amounts of cocaine before then going on a murderous rampage through a Georgia forest. The film, which is very loosely based on real events, stars Keri Russell, Alden Ehrenreich, Ray Liotta, O'Shea Jackson Jr., and Jesse Tyler Ferguson, among others.
Which brings us to the problem with Cocaine Bear, namely that the joke of a bear doing cocaine is pretty much the only thing it has, and one joke isn’t enough to sustain a feature film, no matter how funny it is. Basically, you already know going in whether or not you’re going to like Cocaine Bear, and while it’s hard to imagine the film converting any non-believers, it’s not hard to imagine some hyped-up audience members being slightly disappointed.
Because it sure makes me feel like she’s missing the opportunity here to embrace the wild premise wholeheartedly. This is especially true with the less-than-satisfying third act as if the film is running out of cocaine, I mean, steam, and some of the broad storytelling approach earlier on that scattered around here and there.
