Product Description

A Disney live-action film based on one of the Disneyworld rides. Orphaned bear, Beary Barrington's (voiced by Haley Joel Osment) struggle to fit in with his all-too human family is proving impossible. When he runs away to find his heroes, the ex-country singers The Country Bears, he discovers a vengeful banker (Christopher Walken) is ready to foreclose on the Bears' home, Country Bear Hall. Beary decides that a reunion benefit concert would be just the trick (a bit like a cross between 'The Commitments' and 'Blues Brothers' for the kiddies) with a selection of music legends appearing...

4.0 out of 5 stars disney should have had more faith in this movie 12 Dec 2003
By A Customer
Format:DVD
Now this dvd was direct to video, and i know what you're thinking, any film which is direct to video was too bad to release to theatres, but let me explain.
This film was only direct to video in this country because disney didn't have enough faith in it because they thought it was too american. it was released to cinemas in the states and did reasonably well.
The story is based upon the attraction at disneyland and has captured it warmth perfectly, the story is nice and homely and there are some parts which are icredibly slapstick but not in cringe making sort of way, this movie is very reminiscent of childhood, and it seems as if this film has been around for ages because the story is so easy and slmost familiar, it's like one of the films they show at christmas and you watch evry year and they never lose their magic.
the story revolves around an old bear rock group who parted and have grown old. but one little bear still loves their music and sets out on a mission to reunite them for one last time, filled with great songs and even a cameo appearance by Elton John Country Bears is bound to get you tapping your feet.
the dvd is also crammed full of bonus features and many of them i'm glad to say didn't appear on the U.S. version.
we may have misse dout on this being released in cinemas but catch it now.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Country Bears - A must watch any child! 28 Dec 2009
Format:DVD
This is an excellent DVD for both children and adults alike. It is a film about acceptance of someone who is different. It is about the triumph of the good over the bad. It is such a feel-good movie that you would want all your friends' kids to see it. It has become my favourite gift to children! I would recommend it to any child and adult alike!

4.0 out of 5 stars Country Bears are COOOOL 7 April 2009
By A. Lucas TOP 1000 REVIEWER VINE™ VOICE
Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase
I was buying some other dvds I thought my little boy might like, and saw this one, so added it to my shopping list. I'd never heard of this film, although was familiar with the Country Bears from Walt Disney World in Florida. This film is GREAT family fun. It has great characters, lots of fun, plenty of adventure - and everything you would expect from a Disney family film. I'd highly recommend this to anyone with kids who enjoy good old fashioned fun! Yeee-har!!
