Here comes the bear

About This Movie

Here Comes the Bear, released in 2023, is an intriguing blend of dark comedy and surrealism. Walter, played with a kind of vulnerable charm, grapples with the chaos of newfound family ties and his episodes of narcolepsy, which add a layer of absurdity to the narrative. The atmosphere is tinged with a sense of existential dread yet punctuated by quirky humor. The pacing feels a bit erratic, mirroring Walter's own mental state. There's a distinct visual style, with practical effects that enhance its offbeat moments. Magnolia, his half-sister, contrasts Walter’s more subdued demeanor, creating a dynamic that’s both engaging and odd. It’s a film that lingers with you, making you ponder the nature of family and loss.
