This is the movie I've been looking for all summer. Big bear is a indie film written and directed by Joey Kern, the main character of the movie. This fact is readily apparent do to the sharp directing and pacing of the movie. There aren't any real lull moments in Big Bear, it's just a jump from one drunken disaster to the next that the characters have to deal with which makes the movie endlessly entertaining from front to back. The fast pace of the film makes the 87 minute run time feel even shorter, after watching the movie, I was hungry for more of this gang of bros hi-jinks. The acting coming from Joey Kern is on point and jumps from sullen moments of self-pity to fist-shaking righteous fury. It shows the full scope of Joey's acting ability and he takes advantage of every single scene. Despite Joe's (the character) many faults, the audience can't help but to sympathize with his plight. I'd recommend this movie anyone looking to enjoy their afternoon with their friends. You won't regret it.
