What director Gina Prince-Bythewood provides is more than enough for a rousing motion picture filled with well-choreographed battle scenes effectively folded into stories of human interest.

This is a reminder that horror movies have the twin goals of unsettling and upsetting - a mission statement director Parker Finn takes seriously.

For the most part, "She Said" provides involving material that doesn’t forget the victims in the process of telling how their stories brought down one of Hollywood’s ogres.

It probably will not go down as “Great Spielberg” or even “Very Good Spielberg” but represents a warm, enjoyable plunge into the 1950s and 1960s.

The film piques the intellect and feeds the bloodlust while offering an experience that only a Cronenberg can deliver.

"Cocaine Bear" is imperfect but it is fun and will not disappoint many who are titillated by the title.
