Doeren clearly has a feel for the bear necessities, but the human interest hardly gets its boots on.

The period details are spotty, and the message about responsible stewardship of nature is muted at best.

That being said, Grizzly Night is an entertaining watch. There are some disgustingly good gore effects following the attacks and the brisk pacing keeps things moving. The grounded approach is surprising, but is perfect for the story being told.

For a debut film, featuring an ensemble cast and shot on a tight budget they composed an entertaining thriller that sticks to the facts. Executives and Directors are ones to watch in the future.
