Bears Ratings & Reviews
Village Voice
Chris Packham
Sincere and unexpectedly good, the film happily reintroduces another element of classic kids' movies: a tidy 77-minute run time.
SSG Syndicate
Susan Granger
Engrossing and engaging - and the closing credits reveal behind-the-scenes glimpses of filming in the wild.
RogerEbert.com
Christy Lemire
"Bears" could have used a lot more science; more substantive information in the place of wacky one-liners. Still, the images trump everything.
San Francisco Chronicle
Peter Hartlaub
Bonus points for all but eliminating the easy scatological humor. Does a bear (poop) in the woods? You won't find out watching "Bears."
Detroit News
Adam Graham
There are grittier nature documentaries out there, but "Bears" is simple and effective, and delivered with that friendly Disney touch. Its intent is to make you say, "awww," and it does its job well.
New York Times
Nicolas Rapold
Despite the bracing beauty of the wilderness, and the respite provided by cubs at play, the movie is primarily a sobering treatise on survival.
Movie Mom
Nell Minow
The devotion and persistence of these animals is a powerful reminder that family connections link all species. With this peek into their world, we are more aware of our own.
Entertainment Weekly
Adam Markovitz
If the sight of bear cubs prancing through wildflowers doesn't make you smile, then you probably won't like the new Disneynature documentary Bears. You also probably aren't human.
Boston Globe
Tom Russo
As with all of Disneynature's features, there's astonishing documentary work on display in "Bears" - but a leaner, less conspicuously structured view of the wild might have had even greater impact.
USA Today
Claudia Puig
An enjoyable and visually stunning romp through the scenic Alaskan wilderness with a small family of bears.
Washington Post
Sandie Angulo Chen
As with Fothergill's previous nature documentaries, "Bears" is a story of triumph and family.
Los Angeles Times
Martin Tsai
Amid its heaping serving of cuddliness ... the film doesn't sugarcoat the harsh reality and unforgiving elements with which the bears have to contend.
TheWrap
Alonso Duralde
The Disneynature movies shouldn't be mistaken for traditional documentary, but if they act as a gateway drug for young children to learn more about the animal kingdom, then the films are serving a real purpose.
Arizona Republic
Kerry Lengel
A formulaically entertaining combination of gorgeous cinematography and unapologetic anthropomorphization.
New York Daily News
Jordan Hoffman
Don't look for Disneynature's "Salmon" anytime soon.
New York Post
Kyle Smith
There's only so much editing can do to make a bear story seem like a human one, and the filmmakers (Alastair Fothergill and Keith Scholey directed) also go to unfortunate lengths to give human characteristics like laziness to the bears.
CinemaBlend
Kristy Puchko
Bears works very well as an emotional story of survival and family. But at 77-minutes, it felt a little overlong.
Seattle Times
John Hartl
It may be rated G, but for the most part this is serious stuff, as potentially traumatic for younger viewers as the death of Bambi's mother.
The Hollywood Reporter
Michael Rechtshaffen
Another typically engaging, vividly shot entry in the successful Disney wildlife series.
Variety
Andrew Barker
Surely some of the film's various incidents have been creatively stitched together from stray bits and pieces of footage, but its central conflict is an entirely organic one, and rarely is any offscreen string pulling distractingly evident.
