Clearly, on the basis of the trailer alone, Cocaine Bear is going to be an absolute blast. It looks like (and I have to admit that I say the following with an eye on it becoming the poster quote) it is exactly the sort of film you should see if your primary cinematic interests are bears and cocaine. If the film can sustain the sheer berserk energy of the trailer, then Cocaine Bear is destined to become a classic. Sottile, Zoe (December 3, 2022).

Michelle Momplaisir, Kelsey Balance and Megan Macmillan Focus Features Lands U.S. Rights To Edward Berger’s Papal Thriller ‘Conclave’ Starring Ralph Fiennes And Stanley Tucci Banks’s movie opens in theaters this Friday, and I propose we use that time to separate fact from fiction in Cocaine Bear’s real-life tale. Did a bear once get its mitts on some coke that dropped from the sky and into a forest in Georgia? Yes. Did things unfold in the bloody manner Cocaine Bear would have us believe? No. Unlike Colombia’s cocaine hippos (thriving on Pablo Escobar’s estate, to the degree that local scientists recommended a cull) and Italy’s cocaine hogs (lauded as heroes for having sniffed out and destroyed a dealer’s stash), cocaine bear’s story is not a triumphant one. I should warn you: At least in real life, cocaine bear died in the end. Cocaine Bear: in brief. I can’t wait to see how this movie has turned out. Are you looking forward to Cocaine Bear?

Does it live up to the hype? Does it fulfil the potent promise of that amazing title? Technically yes, but there's a wide chasm between what the audience wants Cocaine Bear to be, and what it delivers." [47] In a negative review, Nicholas Barber of BBC criticised the human characters and their interactions. He wrote, "Instead of showing us the moment when the title character discovered and ingested the drugs, the film keeps introducing more and more characters who could have been in the first draft of a Coen brothers script".
