Review of Brigsby Bear (2017) by Jenna I — 05 Jan 2018
It's not a comedy, it's not a drama.... it really is just about as PG as the Brigsby Bear VHS tapes. For better or worse, this movie is super gentle and sweet, despite having very strange dark undertones that never actually get addressed. I kind of wish they had, it would have given the film just slightly more emotional bite. As it is, it's enjoyable but felt very arms length.
Kevin Mooney is great, the effects are great, the whole world is fun, loved the Heidecker movie, and Andy Samberg in a disco ball helmet forever. Just wish I had gotten more laughs or literally any other emotion out of watching this.
