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.

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.

Movie Review for "Grizzly Falls"

Can you imagine a 1,000-pound mother grizzly bear, mothering a real live boy. Well, here is a wonderful movie for you. This movie is very breath taking. The actors in this movie portray their roles very well. Especially the newcomer Harry (Daniel Clark.) Although this movie is very good I would not recommend it for kids under he age of 6. There are some gory parts to this movie. In this one scene the mother bear is mauling one of the hunters. This movie is a very good action, adventure movie. This is a very good movie for father and son. It shows how close they become. I would recommend going to see this movie. This movie was filmed in the Rocky Mountains of Canada.

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.

Although the story line of this movie was somewhat unrealistic, it was entertaining nonetheless. It was about what I expected, and was a nice change of pace from the typical sex and crime movies that are so common these days.

This is obviously not a movie that will be enjoyed by everyone, but anyone who loves nature should appreciate this film. The scenery is beautiful and refreshing. Most older children will probably love it, but there is mild violence and younger children might be frightened.

At times the plot moves slowly, but doesn't get overly boring for the adults. Not a bad picture overall.
