Fresh and Exciting

Best movie ever!

There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

This movie bored me so bad that I didn't finish it. I have a quirk, where for the most part, I have to finish a movie, even if I can't stand it but this movie was actually bad enough to make me turn it off. It was on television and I thought it sounded fun.The serial killer story had potential to be interesting but for some reason, they nixed that in one of the first few deaths. It didn't even make sense for them to have the serial story, as it provided no substance to the story and didn't carry anywhere. So, right off, I was disappointed with that tale. That meant from thereon out, a movie that claimed a group of teenagers were going to face a serial killer and bears, was really only about nature killings. Which, don't get me wrong, nature killings can be entertaining to watch too but this movie failed in that area too.Every character except for Ranger Bob was poorly written. The acting was about as good as you could expect considering the characters were horrible. They had no and I mean NO redeeming qualities at all. And there was the reason why I shut it off. I didn't even care enough about their bad qualities to enjoy seeing them die. They were just a bunch of soulless evil little twits who didn't seem like teenagers I've ever met (yes, I've met soulless but these guys seemed old), and I just wanted a big rock to fall down and smash them all. So, after two died, and I realized the film really wasn't going anywhere entertaining, I turned it off.The idea behind the film was interesting and perhaps with better writers and directing, it could have been something worth watching. But the carryout of the idea fell far too short to even be worth finishing. Shudder, will skip this movie next time I see it on TV.

I wasn't expecting much when I rented "Grizzly Park." I'm not a fan of horror movies and only rented this due to the presence of Glenn Morshower as Ranger Bob. After reading a lot of reviews I was expecting a total mess of a film; it wasn't quite that bad.The idea of characters getting killed as punishment for their misdeeds isn't a new one in horror, or even in mystery (see "And Then There Were None"), but I liked the idea of this group of offenders being given a chance to repent their misdeeds. Needless to say, they don't. "Grizzly Park" is also beautiful to look at, as it was filmed on location in a couple of state parks (quibble: the movie is supposed to be set in a California state park, but the vegetation is clearly Eastern, witness all the deciduous trees changing color. It obviously isn't California). Some horror film aficionados may have downgraded the film due to its lack of sex and minimal violence - for a horror film. There are a couple of fairly graphic deaths for those who enjoy that sort of thing.Glenn Morshower turns in a great performance and I think his presence is reason enough to rent the film. It actually would have benefited from being longer, as we really don't get to know the characters very well. One of the extras on the disc includes interviews with the actors describing their characters as "deep" and "troubled." I'd call them "sketchy" myself.The so-called twist ending really didn't come as a surprise, but it was very rushed; not enough time was spent on it for it to be believable and it really felt tacked on. A couple more minutes would have been better here. Overall, if you're a fan of Mr Morshower and cheesy movies I think this is worth your time on a slow evening. I've certainly seen worse.

Along with being definitely one of the worst movies I have ever seen due to its terrible acting, complete lack of story, and confusion on what type of genre it wanted to be, this movie had the worst soundtrack I have ever heard. It featured what must have been some friend of the producer's original music and it was incredibly bad. It was along the lines of a Trey Parker and Matt Stone original song for one of their movies, only the comedy was missing. Dreadful. I usually enjoy watching movies that are this bad, but this is in a whole different ballpark. The attempts to include humor soured any moments that would otherwise make you laugh due to its awfulness. I wasted 95 minutes of my life, don't make the same mistake.

I love horror movies. Grizzly Park is not a horror. I've seen a lot of awful movies, this was the worst. It would take to long to cover everything that was bad in this movie but let me just give you some highlights (or would it be lowlight?). First, there's some unrelated sereal killer that kills a bus driver that's supposed to be picking up murdering juvies (yes some were murders, and no they didn't go to jail, you can't go to jail for killing people they just send you to pick up trash)anywho, the sereal killer poses as the bus driver, he has blood allover him and no one notices. He then kills a ranger and then gets eaten by a bear. (YAY) No one was sure what he was going to do anyway, they just wanted an unrelated person to die.For the first hour NOTHING happens. Then people start dying. Which by this time you want them to die very violently, which they do. However you only see like 2 people die. In summary, it was just like someone wanted to make a movie for no reason at all. LET ME JUST SAY, PLEASE DON'T WAST YOUR TIME. PLEASE!!!!!
