Grizzly Falls

After losing his mother, Harry (Daniel Clark) is sent to a boarding school. His Father(Bryan Brown) comes to take him on a trip with a few other people to catch and bring back a live grizzly bear. After two bear cubs are captured, the mother bear comes and kidnaps Harry Bankston. She takes him to the spot where her bear cubs are being kept. On the way there, they became friends. After the mother bear frees her cubs, she leaves Harry and goes back into the wild. Most of the acting is good and the actors make the movie believable. Grizzly Falls is a good movie directed at children under the age of thirteen, but it could also be enjoyed by parents, grandparents, and animal lovers.

Tyrone is out to get a grizzly for research. But things go wrong when they take her cubs. And she gets Harry. Mizzy keeps Tyrone far enough behind to teach Harry some lessons. Harry is going to teach Mizzy some, also. She treats him to grub worms from under a log and some rare fish. So he pays her the favorite back with some cooked fish. But Mizzy forgot to bring the manners. Harry says that is the last.Then Mizzy would like to show how smart grizzlies really are. This is a maxed out PG-13 movie. Good for ages 8-10 and anyone into animals. This movie is a 6 on a scale from 1-10. Another good movie that I have reviewed for out of my 10 years. This isn't a must see but you need to bring the kids for a past time.

i have been watching movies all my life and this movie is not the bestbut not the worst. Its just not for me. This movie named "Grizzly Falls" is rated PG. I thinkthis movie is made for preteens, ages 10-13. the movie is based on adventure(if you call living with a bear adventure). The movie stars Bryan brown (playing Tyrone), Daniel Clark(as Harry), and Tom Jackson (joshua). the characters are easy to understand, but they dont always dress their part.(You will see what i mean when you watch the movie.)In the movie their wardrobe never matches the scene. The actors arent the best but they fill their parts. they just dont do any more than necessary. The movie was farily esy to follow. (Im hoping you are educated enough to follow it.)

The movie is about a boy, Harry, his father, Tyrone, and his men go to the mountains to catch a grizzly. On their journey Harry came across two grizzly cubs at a river. Then later into their journey they came across the momma bear and her cubs. She malled man who became very angry and wanted to kill the bear. Then they captured the two cubs and locked them up. Afterward the boy was feeding the cubs when the mother grizzly captured him and drug him away into the mountains. While Harry was making friends with the grizzly, who he named Mizzy, his father, Tyrone, and his friend, Joshua, were searching for him. In the time he was with Mizzy he tried many new things, like eating raw fish and bugs. He cooked Mizzy some fish on the fire he made. After all their experiences together Harry finally realized that Mizzy was following her cubs the whole time and he led him straight to them. To bad though because to find out the rest or the details between you are going to have to watch it yourself.

A good movie, that should probably have been rated PG-13, in my opinion. There are some genuinely terrifying parts, bad language, and some violent and realistic fighting. It keeps you pretty close to the edge of your seat, for most of the film.

The family-relationship subplot was not very convincing, but otherwise an excellent film. I also found it confusing that the Grandfather made some comment about moving to England from Chicago, and as a child attended what appeared to be an English boarding school...but took the train out west to look for bears. Maybe I misunderstood something.

(One note: the bear is not Bart, but Ali Oop. I have submitted a correction to IMDb.)

Grizzly Falls is an all-American family movie. It's the perfect movie for the preteen audiences ranging from the ages of 10 to 13. This movie wasn't the greatest, but I will say that it had a cute and adventurous story behind it. I think that if you have children of the suggested ages and you would like to watch a clean movie, then this movie would be a great way to finish the day off with. The fairy-tale began around a campfire of generations. As Harry (Richard Harris) grasped the children's hearts with fear, he slowly faded into his own past. His campfire story began with the amazing adventures of his life. The younger Harry (Daniel Clark)started with a heartfelt story as a motherless child, explaining the pains of an absent father (Bryan Brown). After years of relentless actions, Harry's father finally decided to let the past be the past. He took his son along with him, on a trip in search of his father's spirit and to catch a live grizzly for scientific knowledge. While they were hunting for the grizzly, they came across two cubs alone in the water. The hunters thought the mother grizzly was dead, so they took the two cubs for observations and to fill in the absence of their mother. To make a long story short, the mother grizzly came back and took Harry hostage. Although she was a grizzly and grizzlies are known for terror, she did nothing to harm him. Harry soon grew fond of the mother grizzly and named her Mizzy. He came up with that name because she seemed miserable without her cubs. As the father searched for his son, Harry grew closer to Mizzy and learned to respect nature. From there, the epic adventure gets better and better as the search continues and bonds grow stronger. I'm not going to tell you the end because I feel like I've already told you too much.
