Grizzly Falls

While the story and acting are the opposite of subtle, young moviegoers may enjoy the action and suspense.

A series of stunts with bears and lots of stage fighting involving characters who are unambiguously good or evil.

Cinematographer Thom Best never captures the glory of the Canadian Rockies, and the uncredited editing is jarring and unconvincing in key action sequences.

(Kids) are likely to reject Grizzly Falls as though it were a piece of chewed-over bear fat.

To be avoided by anyone considering a vacation to anything wilder than a zoo.

When you don't find yourself wondering about dialogue that's drowned out by rushing rivers and footfalls in the brush, something is very wrong.

A hapless family film that's too scary for little kids and too boring for everyone else.
