      some fake

      It's not bad for a film made in 1988 to be like this. But it still feels fake. Bears themselves are unpleasant. The voice acting is maddening.
              I like the part where it smashes things in the camp the most. And the confrontation with the dog afterwards.
              That hunter is a new recruit, he is inexperienced, and he is so easily moved. I think it's more reasonable to shoot the bear. The big bear saves the little bear, isn't there such a drama? It's not an animal, it's a human....

      memories of childhood

      I like Arnold, a person full of humanistic care. In this play, there is a scene where the bear is injured with one foot and can only walk on three feet. It is not easy to make animal movies. If you want to train the bear to be lame It is quite difficult to walk. Therefore, someone in the crew suggested to put a nail under the bear's paw and the bear would limping away, but Arnold refused, and the result was to train the bear for three months. I remember the first time I saw this movie was in...

      My expected plot did not materialize

      It turns out that this is based on real shooting and editing, which is incredible!
      Since the first time, the horse was killed, I guess, the subsequent plot should be like this. . . .
      After the big bear (Weiwei) and the little bear (baby) meet, Weiwei finds a chance to kill one of the two hunters, then another hunter kills Weiwei, and finally, the baby grows up and kills another hunter Weiwei has his revenge! Ha, (ps, the baby's mother is called Benben.)
      Until one of the hunters...

      Great Wisdom of Grizzly Bears

      After repeated recommendations from friends, I finally watched Zixiong's story, and the most direct emotion was: Why did I delay such a good movie until now!

          Contrary to what I imagined, the tear-jerking point of this movie is at the very beginning. The mother bear was crushed to death, and the little bear tried his best to scrape away the soil and rocks. In the end, he lay beside his mother and fell asleep in grief and helplessness. Perhaps this is the only slightly sentimental...

      love and compassion

      At first, it was hard to imagine that this was a movie with a "story". The bear's performance was "three-pointed". In the movie, from the beginning, the mother was crushed to death and was sad. In a blink of an eye, he chased the frog and had nightmares at night. The next day, the male bear was found to be dead. The stalking and stalking, there is even 18X becoming a bear plot! The expressions and actions are as anthropomorphic and realistic as the simulation production (?), but it is obviously...

      Watching movies about animals always makes people's hearts softer. I'm really glad that the hunters in the movie finally chose to release rather than kill. About human beings and animals, it always reminds me a lot, more of which is the hatred of human beings themselves. PS I think of the news that the elderly will feed the golden retriever that has been sick for many years and eat the dog meat alive, and think of the story of a Chinese director who blew up the general dog to make the picture...

      I like it very much, Zixiong's stickiness likes it, the male bear's stubbornness likes it, the male bear likes the arrogance of the enemy but does not kill, and the hunter's ultimate conscience is aroused and...

      I've been thinking about how it was shot and I can't watch it with peace of mind. . . fuck. This unscientific,. . Bears are so smart that they can act. . . Trained to become sauce purple. ....

    Movie plot

    The mountains stretch, immersed in solemnity. "Bear" opens with director Jean-Jacques Arnold using a panoramic lens to immerse us in the vastness of nature. It seemed like another planet, and I saw a little bear clumsily digging for honey. At this time, its mother smelled the fragrance of the honeycomb, and digged under the pile of stones hard... The bear's name was York, and the long hair covered its eyes. It was enjoying it, but it...
