Two Lovers and a Bear

Protraph Lack of good storyline.

Stevecorp Don't listen to the negative reviews

FrogGlace In other words,this film is a surreal ride.

Hayleigh Joseph This is ultimately a movie about the very bad things that can happen when we don't address our unease, when we just try to brush it off, whether that's to fit in or to preserve our self-image.

SnoopyStyle Lucy (Tatiana Maslany) and Roman (Dane DeHaan) are a young couple living in a remote Canadian arctic outpost. Roman talks to a bear. They go out on a snowmobile trip. Stuff happens.I love the two leads and they have an intriguing chemistry. At first, I figured the bear is a hallucination. It's almost an hour in and both of them see the bear but only Roman can hear him which suggests that he's not hallucinating the bear. It's magical or delusional. Then the movie gets disjointed and there is a confused flow. Then it's all a hallucination which is kind of a relief. Then I start to wonder when the hallucinating started and I'm back to confused. I want to like this for the actors but I can't really follow this movie.

cas_per610 This movie is so boring. One couple with childish problems trying to find out their souls. With some animal language through the movie ;the guy talks to the polar bear. Someone always chase the girl... I mean this is so meaningless movie. Don't spend time watching it!..........................(Out of words)

sgdptech I viewed this movie last night on Netflix, and found it to be Superb. I especially enjoyed all the free looki-loos, but more than anything I believe the Bear and the obviously troubled lives of the protagonists are what made this movie highly enjoyable. I must admit though, that the unexpected ending was very sad and had us in tears. Nonetheless, an Outstanding Movie by any measure! "Gimme a Fish!"

sanjin_9632 I can't believe I'm the second one to review this. When I started watching, I didn't know what to expect. I wasn't quite familiar with the two actors. DeHaan I knew from some supporting roles. Maslany's mostly known for her role on Orphan Black. A show I chose not to watch because I didn't like the clone angle. Essentially this is a story about two people (lovers as it says in the title) spending their days near the Arctic circle, trying to leave their past behind them. A task that proves almost impossible as the story unfolds. Darker than expected.And yeah, there's a bear. Sounds not that compelling? Well, I was pleasantly surprised.The film depends very much on the actors' performances and, to my surprise, they didn't disappoint. The chemistry is very much OK. Direction is quite good too. I think I'll watch War Witch next by the same guy. 7.3/10
