At its heart, this is a comedy-monster movie, serving up about 90 minutes of cheap laughs and over-the-top manglings
By| UPDATED:A great work of cinema has more to offer than its surface narrative; look deeper into it, and the viewer will find metaphors and themes meriting thought and discussion.Billed as “a film by Elizabeth Banks,” this flick is exactly what the title suggests: a romp about a large animal with a whole lotta coke pumping through its system.
Sure, she finds a few laughs with “Cocaine Bear,” but not nearly as many as the situation should have produced. And she struggles to juggle the movie’s needlessly bloated cast of characters. It’s great to get a reunion between Russell and Martindale, who shared some memorable moments on the fantastic FX series “The Americans.”
It’s also a treat to get one last performance from the late Liotta, even if this won’t be remembered among the most memorable from the “Goodfellas” star.
