About this deal

double dip (already) or who waited to buy the first time. The UHD does offer very good UHD specs and presentation characteristics but...this close to drugs and unwittingly indulged itself. It is also not hard to believe that the movie that has been made around the story is a far-flung reworking of Remarkable by how completely unremarkable they are for a major studio release in this day and age... Colors are always vibrant and perfectly saturated, especially the blood that is always present on windows, faces, clothes, the floor, and the ground. There's always blood. Lots of blood. Calibrate your red channel to the blood. Universal's 2160p/HDR UHD presentation of Cocaine Bear does indeed offer a fairly stout visual upgrade over the very excellent Blu-ray, but

a wash between both releases. So, overall, those looking to upgrade would be fine waiting for a steep discount, and first time buyers should certainly Extras start off with a feature commentary with Director/Producer Elizabeth Banks and Producer Max Handelman. It’s a decent talk that goes over the inspiration for the movie, casting the film, working with the different actors, the locations, the effects work and quite a bit more. Primary Audio is offered in English 7.1 DTS-HD. Cocaine Bear was exhibited theatrically in Dolby Atmos, but Universal’s decision not to release a UHD means that they also didn’t include that mix here—like many studios, Universal generally doesn’t offer Atmos or DTS:X on standard Blu-ray. It’s a solid 7.1 mix, although there’s little doubt where the overhead channels would have been utilized for Atmos, such as a moment when the bear gets onto the roof of the ranger station. Still, this 7.1 mix is effective enough on its own, with plenty of surround engagement at all times, and there’s some prominent deep bass when it’s appropriate. The dialogue is always clear (for good or for ill), and Mark Mothersbaugh’s score is well-supported in the mix. Additional audio options include Spanish 7.1 DTS-HD, French 5.1 DTS, and English Descriptive Video Service, with optional English SDH, Spanish, and French subtitles. And much hilarity ensues as the fairly serious combination of a worried mother looking for her missing children, an angry drug dealer looking for his stash and a dogged detective hoping to make an arrest clashes head-on with the idea of a huge wild bear off its nut on cocaine. There are plenty of laughs as the bear rips limbs from torsos, young children find a bag of coke, identify it as cocaine and instantly sample it to see what happens, and Daveed and Eddie take a very emotional hostage to lead them to where the drugs are, but despite the movie being enjoyable, superbly shot and the CGI bear not as off-putting as it could have been, there is the feeling that it doesn’t quite go far enough.

it to play to its strengths. At about 90 minutes sans credits, it's very brisk, too, so love or hate what it does, there is no mistaking that the film is Immediately apparent on its night time airborne prologue, the film looks fantastic. Detail is absolutely razor sharp, with the expected fine lines of clothing and skin textures all present and correct and nestling nicely alongside the pristine edges of the various locations and sets used throughout. Patterns from start to finish – be they intricate clothing designs or simply the foliage of the beautiful and lush scenery – are clearly distinct and look thoroughly natural. Maybe not quite best in class as say something like The Matrix Resurrections, but very good nonetheless. These are further unhindered by the pristine image source – no pesky grain to obscure any of the fine detail underneath. human flesh -- to find its next fix. The drugs are scattered all over the park, and they are also all over some of the people in the park.
