"Bear Shooters," an "Our Gang" film from early 1930, contains many tried and true comedy elements from the series. The film is also notable for featuring a one-shot character, never to be seen again.
The Gang endeavor to go on a bear hunt. The have guns and weapons of various sizes, shapes, and accuracy! They go in their wagon of questionable stability to a creek. They stumble across a bootlegger's territory; the bootleggers decide to put a scare into the kids. Will the bootleggers be successful, or will the Gang have the last word?
"Bear Shooters" is a middling early talkie in the "Our Gang" series. The film contains enough laughs to see it through, but the plodding of early talkies such as this makes the film somewhat difficult to watch. Fortunately, with the previous release of "When the Wind Blows," the Hal Roach studio began to use background music in the films, which helped to move the films along. Before long, the background music became almost as famous as the films (particularly in this series, and in Roach's "Laurel and Hardy" films). Music is present here, and it does help.
Curiously, Leon Janney is added to the Gang as "Spud," and takes the lead in this film. This is Janney's only appearance in the series; he's good, but his character certainly doesn't add much, and the fact that Janney was thirteen when he made this film also added to his one-shot appearance.
"Bear Shooters" is a pleasant but unimportant entry in the series. 6 out of 10.

Bear Shooters (1930)
*** (out of 4)
The gang decides to go campy and once out there they run into a crazed gorilla who they mistake for a bear. What the gang doesn't know is that they're camping on a criminal's hideout. This is certainly one of the better films from this early period and one that thankfully added a music score to help move things along. There are countless funny scenes here with all the children really getting to shine at one point or another. Perhaps I'm just a sucker for movies with gorillas as I've yet to figure out why so many older films featured them but I thought the ending had some hilarious moments. When the kids capture the "bear" and start shooting him with everything they can get their hands on, this comes off very funny. Another great gag is Chubby and his limburger cheese that he greases Wheezer with. Farina also has a nice little scene where he's fishing and Pete might steal the show with his reaction to the cheese.

This Hal Roach comedy short, Bear Shooters, is the ninety-eighth in the "Our Gang/Little Rascals" series and the tenth talkie. In this one, Spud can't go on a hunting trip with Jackie, Farina, and Chubby because he has to watch little brother Wheezer who has coughing jags. He tries to palm him off to sister Mary Ann who only agrees if she's allowed to go on the trip. So off they all go into the woods...I liked the gag of Wheezer accidentally getting Limburger cheese spread on him by Chubby and some of the reaction shots that entailed but otherwise, I thought this was one of the more underwhelming shorts in the series. The climax involving what happens at the end wasn't as hilarious as I had hoped so on that note, Bear Shooters is worth a look at least once.
An OUR GANG Comedy Short.
Wanting to become BEAR SHOOTERS, the Gang goes camping. Unfortunately, they settle on a spot occupied by a criminal hideout...
A very funny little film. Highlights: the `gorilla'; Chubby's limburger cheese. How would you like to grease Wheezer?

Typical Little Rascals short that relies on the cuteness of its stars to disguise the weakness of its humour. This time they find themselves terrorised by a poacher disguised as a gorilla when they go hunting. Dire stuff.

- QuizCharles Gemora, despite the cumbersome gorilla suit that he had designed for himself, is remarkably agile and convincing. His comic performance might be considered a predecessor to the even more realistic proto humans in the opening scenes of Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968) which set the benchmark for miming ape behavior.
- BlooperSpud's declaration, "Kids or no kids, grease or no grease, I'm going camping!" is dubbed over a scene shot at silent speed..
- Citazioni
Farina: C'mon! Get your mule. Let's get going!
Donald 'Spud': I guess I can't go.
Farina: How come?
Donald 'Spud': I gotta stay home and grease Wheezer!
