Criticism of ‘Vicious Bear’, Yogi Bear South Park version

‘Vicious Bear’ offers a crazy feast in which a bunch of jerks and some brainless drug dealers come across a smug ursid.

    Stewart Raffill was in the 70s a director of love letters to natural parks with their noble fauna. In 1981, he gave a turn to his career with ‘High Risk’, a twisted comedy where nature was an action amusement park and characters that were not exemplary. Elizabeth Banks, who as an actress experienced a humorous walk of shame in ‘What a hangover’ (Steven Brill, 2014) similar to that of the snarling bear, does a somersault behind the scenes of ‘Vicious Bear’ to land on her feet and triumphant.

    Savage that opens with claws gore and laughter, the film dispenses with various experts and zoologists, preferring to feast on the animal with a handful of cretins and some mindless drug traffickers led by Ray Liotta who seems to be reunited with his Henry Hill from ‘Goodfellas’ without having been rehabilitated. ‘Vicious Bear’ is pure vice: an accelerated cartoon (Yogi Bear through the prism of ‘South Park’)a survival with a runaway bug of assumed seventies roots (William Girdler’s ‘Grizzly’) and the ‘Jurassic Park’ of the weekenders.

    For activists of very animalistic animals and carnivorous humor

    ​

    The best: that chase from the bear to the ambulance; nor Michael Bay.

    The worst: one of the two main post-credit scenes.
