Jack the Bear Ratings & Reviews
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
What works is, first of all, the DeVito performance as a driven man in a ridiculous job who loves his children but has lost his bearings.
Spirituality & Practice
Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat
Danny DeVito gives the most compelling performance of his career in a gripping drama about a single parent and his two sons.
Deseret News (Salt Lake City)
Chris Hicks
The film's episodic nature tends to undermine its impetus and the final quarter seems tacked-on, almost like it belongs in some other movie. In short, it suffers from trying to do too much.
San Francisco Chronicle
Edward Guthmann
It's all about renewal and forgiving and conquering old demons, but it's filtered through Hallmark Card goo.
