this movie is truly a remake of Blues Brothers in a family/bear style. It is very entertaining. Chris Walken is funny and some of the cameos are very amusing. Good for the entire family.... Full review

However, unlike Kermit & Co., the Country Bears are completely devoid of charm.
Though The Country Bears isn't un-bear-able (groan), its audience is limited.

The Flick Filosopher
The Country Bears is so relentlessly awful that it can't even create a cohesive world to let the people in bear suits -- frighteningly ridiculous bear suits -- run around in.
Bears are not nice: they hurt people, if you're mean to them, as Walken is, or even if you just get in their way.

Once (or if) you get over the fact that full grown bears are walking around talking, singing, and washing cars, the movie is somewhat watchable.
With a premise based on a Disneyworld attraction, "The Country Bears" follows the adventure of Beary Bearington (Osment) as he sets off to help reunite the defunct "Country Bears" for a benefit concert to save Country Bear Hall.

Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Christopher Walken is screamingly arch as the villainous banker who wants to tear down Country Bear Hall no one else can overact with such panache.
Three aspects of "The Country Bears" make the movie: a catchy soundtrack with at least three show-stopping musical routines, a scattering of comic touches aimed straight at parents, and goofy, slapstick humor that appeals to audiences age 2 and up.
