🍿 Set in the 1980’s, not even an all-star cast could save this campy, memeified comedy–thriller. | ✍️ Dmitry Samarov
What if you make the bear 500 pounds, and she doesn’t die but goes on a killing spree, and a bunch of well-known actors are cast as drug dealers, cops, delinquents, and civilians who cross the addicted beast’s path? Laughing yet? Director Elizabeth Banks is shooting for an irreverent 80s-style gross-out but winds up with a bunch of barely connected gags that wear awfully thin past the half-hour mark.
But I can’t think of a thing Banks could have done to live up to her movie’s title or down to the sad true story that inspired it. The real Cocaine Bear was stuffed and became a roadside attraction. The movie was a meme and launched a million jokes before anyone saw a frame. Save yourself the price of admission and just watch the trailer if you haven’t already, or—better yet—make your own TikTok version. It’ll be funnier and will cost viewers a lot less time.
