Dokumentaren er interessant, men kun fordi han blev ædt til sidst..

The scenery shots are really cool, and I enjoyed seeing the bears in thier natural habitat. Treadwell is quite a complex character, and is worthy of a film centering around him. Some of the interviews (the morgue especially) are a bit odd, and I am thankful they didn't actually show the video or play the audio. Don't buy into the idea of trying to become a bear, but if it mkes you happy then I guess go for it. HErzog does a good job splicing the interviews and treadwell's video together.

Amazing, touching, inspiring and breaks down your preconceptions about grizzly bears and much of the human spirit. Beautifully filmed and a genuinely unsentimental treatment of its subject matter.

Where other directors would have made a freak show, Herzog dissects hundreds of hours of footage in search of Treadwell's soul, uncovering accounts of extreme highs and lows as Timothy, in an almost 'Michael Jacksonesque' manner, tries to reinvent himself as a mythological man-bear. Instead of smearing on the drama, Herzog's fascination with the inherit honesty of the image, brings to life an account of beauty, madness and tragedy; Sometimes involuntarily funny, but always dangerously human.

The maniacal behavior of our story's main character, the wildness of the nature he's so drawn to, and a heavy dose of fatalism, are the main ingredients of this sordid tale. Herzog's cynical outlook on the events that transpired stand in stark contrast to Treadwell's unhinged enthusiasm. Treadwell alternates between catching beautiful, fleeting moments, and ranting and raving at the skies. It's impossible not to empathize with him, but it's harder still not to judge him for his recklessness.

You will be stunned at what you see. You may think Treadwell is nuts and that his ideals are ridiculous, but you will be shocked at some of the footage of him with these very wild bears. Herzog does a great job of actually showing more than one-side of Treadwell. He doesn't just show him as some heroic environmentalist, or just a man who has definite social and mental problems. He weaves both so you can be both sympathetic and frustrated with him at the same time. Can't recommend enough.

I'm okay with Herzog but that Treadwell man was not "natural" imho. Wonderful images caught by the way.

Fascinating. A very different take on documentary movie-making. Part documentation, part psychological analysis of a truly unique individual.

Great little docu, The main chap was soooooooooo weird, It shows how he was vain

Grizzly Man paints a vivid, emotional portrait of a world-weary, deeply troubled man who seeks to escape the confines of our overburdening society. A wish that he is ultimately granted. A wonderful, if staged documentary. But, as much as I love Werner Herzog and enjoy listening to his stories (in german that is), he ought to reconsider narrating his own movies in the future, as adorable as he sounds.

A man tries to convince a bunch of bears that he's straight.

An interesting and affecting story.

Timothy wasn't annoying he's a fun, adventurous, self-conscious, self-absorbed, interestingly troubled and deluded escapist. Not just interesting, also very entertaining and emotionally gripping.

Yeah, some of the interviews are staged - that's Herzog. But the story here is so fascinating and tragic that I was absorbed in and connected with Tredwell from moment one.

Grizzly Man is a very unusual documentary, pulled together from candid footage shot by an eccentric who chose to live with bears and coupled with philosophical narration by Werner Herzog who sees in the man a kindred but undisciplined filmmaker who became too attached to his subject to see it objectively. Therein lies harsh lessons on the cruel reality of the wild, while at the same time sympathy for those who want most to sacrifice their lives to it.

A study of nature? No, the study of a very troubled man. Treadwell, disappointed with the human world, clings to an idealized fantasy life that destroys him. There's always a high pitched desperation in his voice, a hint that he is just about to snap. It just gets worse as Herzog starts focusing more on his personal video journals. There's ironic foreshadowing in the tapes too, as if fate is having a laugh. Sympathetic and fascinanting film.

Probably the funniest documentary I've ever seen. Herzog's narration is to die for, and Timothy Treadwell and his associates are just so weird/funny.

Herzog is the man.

The life of a stupid man. I think Herzog realized this halfway thru the making of this movie, and it shows.

I get that Tim has psychological problems and smokes 24/7, but what is up with everybody else?? There all a bit.. well.. Off.. I couldn't stop laughing, even the doctors were crazy.. Great story telling by Herzog.

Excellent documentary about Timothy Treadwell and his fiancee who lived amongst the bears in Alaska. Herzog tells an amazing and heartbreaking tale of nature and man.
