Kids loved it

My kids really enjoyed this movie as they were growing up.Their ages ranged from 7 to 14 years.It was a good family movie. March 14, 2006

Reeks akin to three-week-old unrefrigerated fish

No, the putrid smell of rotting fish is more tolerable than viewing a movie that is so horrid it can't even be shoved into the "cult classic" category!!!

Plot? Well, an AmerIndian interacts with two teens, several poachers, a bear, parents, game wardens and sundry critters that lend ambience to a warm fuzzy all critters are brothers except for the bad guys who have the rifle aiming ability of, well, a bear shooting a rifle.

Inane, senseless, non-plausible yet far-removed from fantasy. I am shocked and awed, perhaps even astounded, that a real human would place their name as being responsible for the creation of this coma-inducing time waster.

Flee...... run away.... do not come near any electronic device conveying this so-called movie.

The only use I can imagine for this attrocity is to give it as a gift to someone you despise, that you hate with liver quivering unadulterated passion.

The only practical use I can think of for this incredibly horrific movie is to use it to garner confessions from criminal suspects. Even then, once a jury learned a confession was gained from the suspect being forced to view this movie repetitively, it is likely the confession would be tossed aside and the detectives using this movie would be charged with some sort of cruelty to a prisoner if not a crime against humanity.

I must admit, though, my scathing commentary has been watered down. The movie is even worse that what I declare it to be. March 11, 2006

true heart

I was very disappointed with this DVD. The character development is poor and stereotypical. The plot is too simplistic and unbelievable even for children.

I have lived in the area where the area was filmed. There are no wolves, kodiak bears (a few black bears), moose or elk in the Tantalus range. The producer could have put a more effort into research. January 18, 2005
