pal05052003 I remembered seeing a trailer of movie about an angry bear so I guessed I got the right movie when I watched Into the Grizzly Maze. I am still not sure if it was that movie in the trailer but I really loved it. It helped that they had James Marsden, and I was thoroughly surprised to see Thomas Jane, Scott Glen, and Billy Bob Thornton. But the real star of the movie is Bart the Bear. The movie is about a killer bear on a rampage, and this bear literally kills it. There is not much plot or character development, but the acting was decent enough to push the plot through until the finale. If the movie had explore the characters more deeply, and created more tension between Marsden's character with Jane's it would probably have been a classic. However, the scenes with Bart the bear is really intense, the credit goes to the trainer of the bear. This is the first bear movie I have seen and I am really impressed. The bear is a great villain comparable to the St Bernard in Cujo, and even more menacing than the shark in Jaws. Never has beautiful lush scenery felt so threatening. If they had explored the characters better, I would have rated this movie a solid 8 or even 9.

GUENOT PHILIPPE The only things good here are the settings and the end of that half crap. I highly prefer the Bill Girdler's film, back in 1976. I know there are many bear films in the movie history. This one is not the best anyway, if maybe not the worst either. But everything is badly done. For instance, in the beginning, when the two men begin to fight outside the bar, in front of the girl; well, just after a couple of fist hits, only two seconds, the police car and the ambulance arrive. Rubbish. The audience is full of idiots for the audience or what?and the climax is terrific, I agree, although very unbelievable. I thought the bear would be killed by the boat helix...A foreseeable time waster, not more.

851222 Greetings from Lithuania."Into the Grizzly Maze" (2014) is a very predictable but at the same time entertaining flick if you don't hope for a great movie. It has surprisingly great cast who did a uniformly good job in this flick. This picture is rated R - it is bloody and has some visceral scenes. The plot is very simple and predictable, but this flick isn't about the plot - it is about a grizzly man killer, so as you guest it won't win any Oscars or other awards in here.Overall, if you will skip "Into the Grizzly Maze" you won't loose anything. But if you will see it, first of all lower your expectations and just enjoy the ride, because this flick delivers what is promises and nothing more. At running time 1 h 23 min it never drags and very well paced. Locations are truly beautiful, add a great cast and very simple but kinda griping story and you will have some nice time watching this flick.

anthonyesposito75 I have recently watched this movie and i have to say i was pleasantly surprised as its not usually my type of movie. There obviously have been previous movies of the same genre, but my opinion this is by far the better option, you cannot go into movie like this and expect Oscar winning performances, but saying that James Marsden ( whose very under rated as an actor ) plays a great role, as do they all. He has a strong supporting cast in the very attractive Piper Perabo, Michaela McManus, Thomas Jane,and of course the great Scott Glenn and Billy Bob Thornton.......Just sit back and relax its a great film, there are worse things to do with your time for ninety minutes.....
