Cocaine Bear hätte angesichts des Themas und der Regisseurin alles werden können, und ich bin ganz froh, dass der Film ein mittelmäßiger schwarzhumoriger Slasher mit einem Baribal-Killer in der Hauptrolle geworden ist, der einen Würfel Kokain statt eines Gehirns hat. Der Film hat viel Humor, ist aber stellenweise sehr unausgewogen, aber ich habe mich im Kino gut amüsiert - besonders in den Szenen mit Margo Martindale und während der Pavillon-Sequenz. Sicherlich hätten die Filmemacher noch mehr schwarzen Humor bringen können und nicht so viel familiären Ballast in das Drehbuch packen müssen - aber was soll's, ich habe das Kino zufrieden verlassen.

This was very bizarre, a freak and this year's absolute (not only) cinema dud. It's not only the bear and half of the park visitors who are on coke, but above all the director Elizabeth Banks, who should have stuck to her below-average B-movie roles and not wandered behind the camera. I was expecting at least a ton of proper gore, a high bear and fancy wisecracks bordering on parody, but sadly none of that happens. It's far too little for a fun romp, the humor is not funny and doesn't work, and for a serious bear slaughter it's too moronic, bland, and the gore is tragically weak. Not to mention the classic stupidity of all the characters who have tunnel vision and negative IQ. The only good thing I see then is the fairly passable running and the colorful visuals, but the CGI mess that they want to pass as a bear is just very bad.

This gets one less star because of the kicking of the bear cubs and because of the precisely crafted trailer, which created the impression that this poorly directed exercise in futility might actually be good. Some films are bad not in an entertaining way, but simply in an uninteresting and soul-crushing way.

It's a shame that Elizabeth Banks took a potentially bizarre and wacky premise, where it was already decided that it would be a bad film, but I was hoping that it would at least be stupid-funny and it's kind of boring. The bear itself looks pretty cool, and the best scene is with the ambulance, which is also one of the coolest, the rest of it wasn't worth much. There's not enough gore for my taste (there was some guts and some severed limbs), but when I think of the bear attack from The Revenant, there was nothing as intense here. There is very little humour, I didn't laugh once, it's mostly cringe and insipid. By the end, I was wishing for the ending and I was struggling not to turn it off. Had I seen it in the cinema, I’d be pissed. 3/10.

Elizabeth Banks turned a potentially funny brutal comedy into a lazy and plodding film of unlikeable characters, dysfunctional humour and zero atmosphere. The couple of fine scares and the likeable bear tearing people apart aren't enough when you spend most of the time looking at your watch for the end credits. A below-average film that scores points more for its entertaining premise than for how it's handled.
