6/10
An enjoyable madness
8 November 2021
I'll start by saying that this movie is not for everyone. It is completely and utterly bonkers. It's about a dysfunctional family, fame, growing up, incest, buggery and bears. Based on the novel by John Irving, most people would say that the film is too faithful to the book. It has an impressive cast, the acting is okay, but the dialogue is pretty poor and it does the actors no favours. Having said that, there is a innocent charm and quirkiness that I really liked. Worth attempting to see, but you might turn it off after 20 minutes.
