The Country Bears
For Beary Barrington, The Country Bears' young #1 fan, fitting in with his all-too-human family is proving im-paws-ible. When he runs away to find Country Bear Hall and his heroes, he discovers the venue that made them famous is near foreclosure. Beary hightails it over the river and through the woods to get the Bears in the Band back together for an all-out reunion concert to save Country Bear Hall.
Critics Sentiment
Reed Thimple reveals himself as vengeful armpit musician Benny Bogswaggle
Waitress sings overdone production number at the restaurant
The biggest swing occurs from the painful diner musical sequence to the car wash chase, jumping from 2.8 to 4.5 as reviewers found relief in the sillier physical comedy.
Reviews reveal a film that struggles with its bizarre premise of singing bears, with most critics finding it creepy, unfunny, and poorly executed. However, Christopher Walken's theatrical villain performance and some of the musical numbers provided occasional bright spots in an otherwise panned Disney effort. The sentiment remains consistently low throughout, only occasionally rising above mediocre when specific elements like Walken or certain cameos managed to entertain reviewers.
