Review: "Disney's Bears" tries to make brown bears more human

"Disney's Bears" G
The year in the life of three Alaskan brown bears is detailed in this cute and often brithtly majestic story. Again the narrator tries to make it like bears are just like people, like they did for chimpanzees and lions. Bears do not get revenge. Big bears are only bullies because they're looking for food, not thinking things out. Skye and her cubs seem well trained for wild bears and even though they keep saying some peril will strike, it is rated G so there isn't really going to be any. In real life though, it's probably much more raw and violent if something did happen. The movie is a nice and wholesome documentary. If you're looking for National Geographic or Mutual of Omaha this isn't it. It's worth a rental.
