What keeps Maze humming is Hackl's firm sense of narrative tension. He knows character and dialogue are icing in films like this, so it's taut pacing, editing, and sound design that are crucial. (The actors are all fine, playing everything straight, sans irony.) The final showdown is ludicrous and thrilling -- as it should be.

David Hackl often shoots his bear in fashions that accent its lumbering, powerful grace, even during its death rattle.

Ignore the hanus title this movie is one hell **** time. Like the fashioned animal attack films but on speed. "Grizzly" centers on a sheriff played by hunky Thomas Jane (Hung) and his bad boy brother played by sexy James Marsden (Hairspray) who find themselves in the middle of a situation when a killer grizzly mama bear wants just revenge for her illegally poached Cubs. Piper Perabo (Coyote Ugly) also stars as Jane's deaf wife and Billy Bob Thornton (Sling Blade) as a big game hunter. The kills are fierce and brutal and the bear looks mostly great until the finale which rocks but is CGI'd up. All in all it's a very effective thrill ride that's criminally underseen and should have been released in theaters. 4.25/5

The acting was okay for the most part (Marsden and Perabo were pretty good but Glenn and Thornton gave two of the most wooden performances I've seen recently), the attacks by the bear were not that well made but it could've been worse but, ultimately, the movie is entertaining and in the end you really care for the 3 main characters (****'s not a bad movie but it's not a good one by any means either, it's just some mindless entertainment about an intelligent killer bear.

Rarely do you sense that any key performer was ever in the vicinity of a real animal.

An extremely poor film - we only watched this because Billy Ray Thornton was in it but he must only have needed a few thousand bucks for a new pool because he barely appears. Save your time and money unless you like rooting for the animal in these pathetic "Let's kill the rogue animal" movies. In fact the computerized grizzly is the best actor in this movie.
