David Noh Film Journal International Tired, unfunny bacholor party/revenge comedy. Sep 22, 2017 Full Review Brian Orndorf Blu-ray.com Kern lines up the elements but doesn't launch the picture with enough invention, offering a tired broheim movie that's occasionally interrupted by strange behavior.

thomas l Four kinds of stupid, and then they meet the married fiancee. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review gene f Hilarious!!!! I loved it. It was smart, and funny and it had fun surprises. Watch it. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member My husband and I watched this movie on Netflix. It was supposed to be a good comedy. We didn’t laugh at all. The story kept us interested enough, but ended up no where... I wouldn’t bother with this one. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/03/18 Full Review anthony b One of the most unfunny, boring bachelor party movies I have ever seen. The elements that make up Big Bear are hardly fresh but this one doesn't suffer from lack of originality as much as it does a lack of everything else. There is so little to this film that it barely constitutes a film, that said, it still manages to go from bad to utter shit in under 90 minutes. No one does anything in this movie, probably because the newbie filmmakers were afraid to do anything wrong. Clearly those behind the camera lacked competence and confidence, and it shows to a pathetic degree. There's a cabin, a kidnapping, and 75+ minutes of agonizing nothing. If your idea of humor is Adam Brody with a mustache, check out Big Bear immediately but remember, you've been warned. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Big Bear, a comedy that I can relate to! Sometimes we can all use the encouragement of our friends to face our fears and get the bear off of our chest. This film took me on a voyage of self-discovery when Joe (Joey Kern) has a late epiphany about the turmoil in his life. Thanks to his friends, booze and some unexpected help he has a remarkable breakthrough. Big Bear is a comically light-hearted film with a charismatic cast that reminds us of the best buds in our lives. I had a blast watching the four friends interact with each other, as they reminded me of myself and my own pack. Definitely would recommend this fun film! Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member I’ve never been to an IKEA but Joe (Joey Kern) acts like my friends that are obsessed with the store! It hilarious to see him rave about the place like it’s his new rebound. I recommend this movie to IKEA connoisseurs who enjoy a good laugh!
