Cocaine Bear

About a week ago, I was talking to my dad and he told me, “I went to the worst movie I’ve ever seen.” I knew what he was going to say before he said it. Seconds after the words “Cocaine Bear” left his mouth, I replied. “Oh, I saw it, too. I f-ing loved it.”

“Cocaine Bear” is the type of movie where you have to go in with the right mindset. It’s a throwback to cheesy 1980s low-budget B-movies, albeit with higher production values and better writing and acting. If you go in expecting just that, “Cocaine Bear” is an absolute blast.
