"Gory, hilarious, and totally fun.."

IGNIGN

"Most viewers will wish that it was wittier, faster, and more willing to fulfil the gonzo potential of its in-your-face title."

BBCBBC

Chicago Sun-TimesChicago Sun-Times

"A transcendent power chord of dumbness..."

Financial TimesFinancial Times

"There are highs, but a bear with an appetite for cocaine isn’t as snort-out-loud funny, or as thrilling, as you’d hope."
