Grizzly Man Ratings & Reviews
- Audrey LaymanOctober 30, 2024The footage captured by Timothy Treadwell is mind blowing and makes this doc feel incredibly intimate. Disturbed to my core, but worth a watch!
- SamNovember 17, 2025god he really was just so stupid wasnt he
- EithanJanuary 13, 2026Good watch, silly man, poor girlfriend, happy bear… 🐻
- carlijusticeJanuary 3, 2026I lived in Anchorage during this time. He made the newspapers regularly as he had been told repeatedly that he needed to arm himself for protection against the wildlife in case it was necessary, but he repeatedly refused. Because of this, wildlife officers, and well meaning pilots would regularly fly out to check on his wellbeing. It was hotly debated by all whether this man should be fined, arrested, ignored, assisted somehow, or simply respected and left alone. People felt that he was making himself an issue to others far too often. Others truly believed that he was crazy. Some believed that he simply wasn't outdoor educated. Most felt like he was a pest. Nobody felt like he actually belonged there. In the long run though, the public absolutely believed that the outcome was entirely preventable, and it probably was if he had listened.
- SniffinTroutAugust 21, 2025What a weird man lol but rip, the lady at end said it best about being a religious experience in a way becoming what you desperately love, the pilot was cool, the guy at the end tho🤣 I was thinking when you become so far gone you just strive for death or attention in the most crazy ways, not a bad watch tho.
- mickerdooSeptember 25, 2025Great bear footage, yes. Interesting lifestyle and a big endeavor. But ultimately, I wasn’t really taken by Treadwell.
