A bit of a Laugh
adamsdabratt26 August 2021
Not sure if this was supposed to be a comedy, but let me tell ya... Bearry got a few laughs out of me. Definitely Not even a B-Movie, but the teddy bear is a star!!! Lol.

Not the worst C grade film
amandajanegroth18 August 2021
Warning: Spoilers
While I have sat through many films only to turn off after 10/20 mins, I managed to sit through all of Bearry. The writing is full of one liners and cliches, but the acting is okay, I especialy liked the "best friend" as a comic releif. The storyline is different, but can be predictible in times. Good camerawork, and some few great shots. I didn't like the resteraunt stranger towards the end of the film, she came out of nowhere and completely ruined the storyline. All in all, it's watchable if you are bored. 5 stars.

Fun
LizMann1828 August 2021
I have no idea why anyone would approach a movie about a large killer teddy bear as a serious horror film, when it's obvious the makers of Bearry approached this with a sense of humor.

There isn't much here to take seriously. The actors were certainly giving it their all, the movie is competently shot and well recorded, the suspense and gore are minimal. What shines here is the script. This movie is genuinely funny. I think the Sharknado films started this whole new wave of ridiculous plots and The Asylum films have certainly capitalized on this, but Bearry is a smaller production but every bit as entertaining.

Entertainment should be what a film is all about. While Bearry does have it's lulls, overall I enjoyed it, and laughed from beginning to end. The Teddy Bear itself is a hoot. It's worth watching once if you like silly LOL films and I'd even watch a sequel. It was the trailer that made me watch this and if you get a chuckle out of the trailer, you will enjoy this film.

C Grade Film, But It's Got a Murder Bear!
icocleric4 July 2022
This isn't a B-Movie, it's probably C grade, but this film knows its not a good film, and doesn't take itself too seriously. Which I really like, and if you know in knowing its going to be terrible. There's things to enjoy about it.

I mean a teddy bear murdering people, it's gloriously terrible. Like with a better budget they could have done a lot more with the concept. But it's still fun.

Censorship is a no-no
Zorya_Beryl12 November 2021
Censorship worse than in the USSR. Delete all you want, this "movie" is still worthless. Face the truth. Enough said, like I said. Bad, horrible acting, ridiculous script.

ok for a b movie but...

Warning: Spoilers
The acting was ok, but there was no real gore or violence, just cgi blood. But the worst part was the shower scene. Why have a shower scene and barely show anything?

Interesting concept, pretty bad movie...
paul_haakonsen25 September 2022
Right, well with a movie such as the 2021 horror movie "Bearry", then I guess it is either make or break. I don't think there is any middle way for a movie with such a concept as what writers Kathleen W. Hwang and Anthony Werley churned out for "Bearry".

And I have to say that the movie didn't really make it. Sure, it had an interesting enough concept, but the movie was simply too poorly executed and brought to the screen. And the subpar acting and horrible special effects didn't really help to sell the movie much.

The acting performances in "Bearry" were dubious at best. I wasn't particularly thrilled by what I saw on the screen, and the only familiar face on the cast list was Vernon Wells, and let's just be honest here, he isn't exactly top of the acting cake.

The special effects in the movie are just toe-curling bad to look at. I wonder who greenlighted this poor CGI effects and went 'yup, it looks good, the audience will buy into that'. But hey, at least the special effects were so bad that they managed to get me to laugh.

"Bearry" is a movie that came and went without leaving a lasting mark on the horror genre. And I doubt that I will ever return to watch it for a second time. Nor is this a movie that I would recommend fans of the horror genre to waste their time on.

My rating of director Alexander T. Hwang's 2021 horror movie "Bearry" lands on a very generous three out of ten stars.

Skip it.
Otkon20 September 2022
Warning: Spoilers
For one, it's not nearly as over the top as it needed to be for the premise. Usually I love the idea of a killer teddy bear. Could this be my dream depiction? Kindly, the answer is no.

Years go by before the bear kills anyone. Oh, and the plot is all over the place. Um, the bear is supposedly protecting her. It then assault her? Maybe I missed something. Don't bother looking. Because the story is just not there.

The acting is bad. I mean really bad. Like adult film bad. Felissa Rose is terrible. The two cops are terrible. Thomas is okay. All this was missing is Eric Roberts inside the bear suit.

Pure silliness and fun
BigHarvey8 March 2022
Bearry is an outrageous slasher/comedy that kept me wondering what was the true source of the mystery till the very end. There isn't much here to take seriously with a dash of rom/com and a splash of supernatural horror. And once you put Felissa Rose in the story, anything is possible as to what motivates the villain. Pure silliness and fun.

missed an opportunity .....BUT ....
godinamachine27 March 2022
HEY EVERYBODY ITS ME (4) and today we review ..........the berry springer show ....the movie !!!!!!!

So a movie about a killer bear ? ....but a killer teddy bear that is ? ...sure why not , in the era of killer donuts, killer sofas ...why not killer teddy bears i mean we already have a drunk mouthy one thats afraid of thunder storms ...so why not one that kills you too .......

personally THESE types of movies are what REALLY makes watching movies fun, the crazy ideas people come up with to try and make something interesting and different , not your run of the mill everyday film , but one that is out side of the remake,reboot,prequel,sequesl,REquel/marvel or DC film box that everyone is doing these days ....indie films have become the ONLY place to go for ANYTHING with original ideas anymore........ not to say a autonomous teddy is new ..... but at least this has some fun moments and its own take on the idea ...a KILLER teddy .........and the animated teddy thing has yet to be over done .... killer dolls yea a bit played out BUT KILLER TEDDY ....oh no we still a good 30 more films to go before then lol.........

so obviously this is a low budget film, and its got a few b-film familiar faces .......the acting is decent enough, though at points can be a bit over the top, and the FX are decent enough as well .... the story is nothing too over the top .....it semi delves into a more "deep story" at the end with the crazy lady showing up talking about controlled killer teddies BUT they dont do much wit hit ... just mention AND gone ..... NOW i almost expected it to lead to a terminator teddy at the end BUT NOPE so i admit ....missed opportunity there you guys ....you should have grabbed that robotic bull by the horns and ran with it because that could have / would have been pretty cool to see at the end..... of course paying homage to the terminator , his face half blown off and robo teddy showing, red eye lazer targets the girl, he raises his NOW burned off machine gun had up and lets lose a hail of bullets into the building, or a car , etc ... yea think about it . And honestly being low budget, the FX woulndt have even been hard to pull off for that AT ALL i literally make that kind of thing for fun....... so .... dang ........

BUT that aside .......over all it was a fun little film... taking on the hardships of dating after a relationship goes to crap and having overBEARING (see what i did there) people in your life pushing you to jump right back in .........oh and also those people getting you a giant killer teddy to cuddle ..and ...possibly have a odd ....sexual ....kind of thing with ...hey hashtag 2022 i aint judging ... just sayin ........ POINT being .......[this is obviously a film not going to take its self to seriously , its about a giant stuffed animal out to kill people ...so if you are into straight up horror flicks ...skip...if you like a little comedy in your horror coffee then check it out .......

7/10.

Vernon Wells is in it!
moviezagogo3 September 2021
I get a kick out of offbeat movies like this. It makes no attempt to explain why Bearry can do what Bearry does, and nor should it. It's unapologetic fun with plenty of laughs - especially all the douchebag dates along the way. Chloe's boss totally cracked me up too. I don't know where they found that guy, but he was gold. Oh, and Vernon Wells is in it!

If you like a mountain of cheese in your slasher movies, this one is for you!
baccaruda12 September 2021
OMG! This is one of those horror movies, that like "Plan 9 From Outer Space", embraces its C-movie heritage to great effect. I laughed throughout, and while I'm not sure if it was intentionally funny, it IS very funny. When "Arsenic and Old Lace" was made into a movie, it was supposed to a legit suspense film, but then when audiences saw it, they howled with laughter, surprising the film makers. But the makers of that film embraced it as pure camp, and I get the same vibe from "Bearry". The plot, the dialogue, the acting, the EFX, and the way the film was shot all point toward the old cheapie horror films we loved as kids. At less than an hour and a half, the film moves along and is a lot of fun!

Genre blending well done!
robdias328 September 2021
Bearry had a ton of charm. The opening credits had me engaged, well done. I thought the filmmakers did a wonderful job of blending the horror elements with the romance, comedy and action. Sarah French led the way with a character you can get behind and root for. This story had a lot of layers which let the characters shine. And the Bear, omg! A fun time, watch it!

Fun movie that doesn't take itself too serious
kevin-456097 September 2021
I enjoyed this film that was part rom-com and part slasher. I enjoyed see the film go back and forth seamlessly between the two genres. The soundtrack was perfect and truly captured the correct mood from moment to moment and switched to enhance the tone.

Goofy horror comedy
marceldorian10 March 2022
Warning: Spoilers
Do you want to watch a movie about a killer teddy bear? If the answers is yes, you know that this will be a fun, over the top, silly movie. You will also be surprised by some Hitchcockian elements (you'll know it when you see it and have a great laugh) as well as homages to 80's fun horrors with ridiculous plots. Don't take it or yourself to seriously and you'll enjoy it.

So much fun!
nicoleelisecinaglia21 August 2021
I thoroughly enjoyed Bearry! It was so much fun. When the bear turned its head for the first time...CREEPY. The cast was fantastic and the whole movie had this dewy filter over it that made me believe I was watching a Romantic Comedy. It def hit all the different feels. I highly recommend it!
