Titreenp SERIOUSLY. This is what the crap Hollywood still puts out?

NekoHomey Purely Joyful Movie!

AnhartLinkin This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.

Kinley This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

SnoopyStyle Troy Hurtubise is putting together a bear-proof suit to get close to the grizzlies. He recounts an encounter with a grizzly bear he calls the 'Old Man'. It's a strange obsession and not necessarily a healthy or smart one. It's not that he's a raving lunatic or that he's some kind of idiot. It's that he is fully committed. At times, one does wonder whether this guy is real or not. Some of the testing is hilarious like Three Stooges. His wilderness outfit hints at some kind of theatricality. His fringe jacket and beret looks like some costume. Part of this is absolutely showmanship unless bears started breathing fire. There's no reason to test the suit against an inferno. In the end, this is a character study but I still need that bear attack. I expected a bear attack. A bear needs to attack that suit.

matt-mccabebrown I heard about this movie somewhere and it intrigued me. Man designs a bear proof suit. Sounds pretty cool I thought. Found the poster. Saw the suit. Looks pretty cool I thought. Rented the film. Saw the film. What a chump I thought. Don't get me wrong, Mr Troy Hurtubise's dedication to his cause is highly respectable. He has clearly spent vast amounts of his time and money designing and building this suit, which he intended to use to study grizzly bears up close and personal, without fearing for his life. The film is pretty much structured in two halves. In the first half, Troy is pretty much hanging with his family and friends, most of whom seemed as bored of their lives and everyone around them. (The scene in the diner is priceless). Troy shows off his suit with a series of tests and odd stunts. Whilst wearing the suit (The mark VI) he gets his pals to swing huge logs into his chest, beat him up with baseball bats and pool cues. They even shoot the suit at one point. Don't worry even Troy wasn't dumb enough to be inside it at the time. Showing the suit off in an urban environment, its clear that he practically immobile, which makes the second half so funny. When they eventually get to "Grizzly Country" he finds out to his horror that he can't even stand in it on rough ground and keeps falling over. The look of despair on his face would be really sad if it weren't so funny. He spends five days up in the mountains, spends his time talking gibberish, showing off his knives and moaning about the suit. He even shaves with his massive bowie knife like Crocadile Dundee. Troy tries so hard to come across as a mans man. But to me, it just seemed he was trying so hard to escape the monotony of his boring day to day life that he couldn't see the forest for the trees

vjacq After surviving an attack by a grizzly bear, some Canadian yahoo spends the rest of his life trying to design a suit that will . . . help you survive a bear attack.We watch the development of his suit, which involves smoking cigarettes and being crazy, until the Canadian government approves it for testing.It's a funny movie but not worth much but a few laughs.

Jeope! Interested in seeing a kind of half-baked superhero-themed movie? Do Not Be Deceived. Project Grizzly is not about Troy-Man from the Great White North Bay; rather, it is a chilling tale about a normal (?) fellow who's taken his defiance of nature to a level not fit for yourself or your friends. And trust me on that. And while it is hard not to watch Troy get repeatedly whupped by log-catapults and pick-up trucks, or be pushed off the Niagara Escarpment (!) during 'tests' of his bearproof suit, the picture does run on. Ahhh, but wait. You'll be left curiously satisfied by watching it - knowing that your crazy friend Troy from grade school who ate worms, marbles, gravel or what-have-you might just have amounted to something.
