For Beary Barrington, The Country Bears' young #1 fan, fitting in with his all-too-human family is proving im-paws-ible. When he runs away to find Country Bear Hall and his heroes, he discovers the venue that made them famous is near foreclosure. Beary hightails it over the river and through the woods to get the Bears in the Band back together for an all-out reunion concert to save Country Bear Hall.

Reviews

Matt Greene People got together, thought of the concept, wrote a script (assumedly) made of words, hired and fed a crew, filmed some stuff, edited together said stuff, and unleashed the product onto the world. If you've ever been to the Disney World attraction, and your favorite part was the somber family melodrama of the singing animatronic bears, then you're in luck. Otherwise, this is just a painful disaster that could not possibly be more ill-advised or ill-conceived.

GrandpaBunche ..is that it contains the indelible sight of Christopher Walken performing "The 1812 Overture" via armpit farts — yes, you read that right — for a captive audience of bipedal, talking redneck bears. And Walken is joined in this bit of lysergic lunacy by no less than Elton John, Bonnie Raitt, Alex Rocco, Willie Nelson (!!!) Wyclef jean and Brian Setzer, so it's simply got one brain-trampling moment after another. Yeah, I know it's a kid's film, but what kids were clamoring to see this? Was it made as a tax write-off? But even with those burning questions in mind, it's certainly a truly bad movie, but I sat through it in a state of greatly amused slack-jawed disbelief, so I say see it. Preferably girded with a couple of sixers of beer.

blazeeagle Good for almost all ages. Most enjoyable when watched with family members. I suggest parent's watch this with young children, for two reason's: 1. It's a family movie 2. A few thing's need parental guidancerbverhoef's excellent review on here covers most, if not all, of my thought's on this movie. There's not much else for me to comment on.If anyone doesn't like this movie, I suggest they chill out and open up their heart's and enjoy this film!It's about an humanoid bear who lives with an human family that feels left out, different, etc. To avoid even slight spoilers, I can't say anything else.

mogier I'd never heard of the Country Bears before - even the Disney attraction - and picked up the DVD for half price as a 'stocking filler' for my 8-year-old. I was pleasantly surprised - it's great to see something so innocent and good hearted that isn't packed with the sort of mawkish sentimentality that often finds its way into kids' films. The bears are the stars of the show, with some excellent costume puppetry and some great characters (my favourite is Zeb, who plays a mean fiddle). The story is a simple one, and you know how it's going to end. And I usually hate country music, but enjoyed the rocky tunes that punctuate the movie. This is the sort of thing that will keep most kids amused for an hour and a half - and any adult who can let their inner child out for a bit will get a kick out of it too. I'd be happy to see more of the Country Bears...
