Starring: Ashton Kutcher, Martin Lawrence, Debra Messing
The animals of the forest are in a panic - open season starts in three days, and they will probably end up on some huntsman's wall by the end of it. Far away from all of this, Boog the domesticated grizzly bear lives with a forest ranger (Debra Messing) and stars in the ranger's show. But when Boog meets Elliot, everything is turned upside down when a late-night escapade earns Boog banishment to the great outdoors. With open season just days away, can Elliot, Boog, and their forest friends survive?
This is your classic kid-comedy movie storyline: Happy main character gets dragged out of their comfort zone by another happy, occasionally stupid, character. The two begin to trust each other until some catastrophe happens or a secret is revealed that causes them to part ways while a sad song plays in the background. Then, they band together to fight, their differences forgotten. It's not a particularly original script (and sometimes a crude one, too - a homosexuality joke and several names for the toilet pop up), but the best thing about Season is the animation. It paints a great picture of a Pacific Northwest-sort of place, and is very funny. This film has its funny moments (and most of them involve Ashton Kutcher's character Elliott - Kutcher is the other redeeming quality of this movie), but all in all I found it just...okay.
Star Rating: **1/2
