This typically leftfield Herzog oddity is alternately beautiful and infuriating; the story of the Steve Irwin-like Timothy Treadwell and his childlike obsession with bears and filmmaking gripped me throughout and left me haunted.

Whether Timothy Treadwell was a visionary or just plain nuts, you have to admit he had a lot of bravery. I'm not one for documentaries, but this is highly entertaining, though I wonder if I should have laughed so much at such a tragic end.

Even if you hate documentaries, you'll enjoy watching this one. Timothy Treadwell is one unique person. Between his bravery living with bears and his cussing, you'll never be bored watching it. I was in awe and laughing at the same time.

Grizzly on Blond

Yeah, this guy Timothy Treadwell is wacko. Was wacko. He wanted to live with the bears and they killed him. Surprise. Well, he did survive longer than most people. You almost feel sorry for him, but then he goes on a rant about the forest service that is unnerving and you have to think this guy is crazy. This film was alright, but not the best. It made me never want to get close to bears.

They're coming to take me away, haha...

This guy was crazier than a s#*t-house mouse. How do you protect bears that are already in a wildlife preserve? Yes, I guess he was somewhat brave but also very, very stupid. I just feel sorry for the girlfriend, because he got what he deserved. An excellent watch, if you like to see loonies rant and rave.

watch it for the crazies

Nick's right. the best part of this movie is how crazy that treadwell bastard is. But the truly wonderful part is how crazy all his friends and even his parents are. Then to top it off, the director is a nut job as well. It'll be interesting to see how he follows this up with the Vietnam war movie Rescue Dawn.
