Liberal snooty types lashing out at conservative cronies and their right-wing leanings should have made for some enjoyably edgy satire, but 'The Hunt' is merely a by-the-numbers comedy-horror-suspense thriller that has a few punchy moments. But, if production company Blumhouse wants to remake a bunch of 90s Jean-Claude Van Damme action movies with Betty Gilpin in the lead role, I think I'd be down with that. I'd watch them, not in the theatres obviously, but late at night afte...

In case you don't know, I'm from Portugal. Why does this matter? Well, The Hunt was delayed after a massive shooting in the USA, and since the movies' themes are extremely sensitive, the producers decided to postpone the film. At the time, I felt frustrated that, once again, movies have to suffer from real-life situations. Going to the th...

Review From Horror Focus

Gaining its momentum back in mid 2019, The Hunt stirred up quite a bit of controversy prior to its initial release, branding it too brutal for release due to the mass shootings in Ohio, Texas last summer. This Blumhouse picture was later rescheduled, and was at one point never to see the light of day, which would have been a crushing blow knowing how relevant this actually turned out to be. Luckily for us, Bl...

Irony of ironies that this movie's release got pulled due to Trump's shitfit despite never having seen it, when a not insubstantial part of The Hunt is about the left's propensity for sparking outrage without having the whole story. The reality is, the nothing The Hunt has to say is worth being outraged over. Betty Gilpin's great in it, because of course she is, intermittently there some pretty fun violence, and only most of the dialogue is i...

It was... fine. Nothing really to write home about, but some decent kills and gore, plus true subverting expectations with the cast of characters killed off early on. Kind of peters out towards the end but overall it's worth a rental but one could wait until it's available for free as part of a streaming service. 3.5/5

I knew this film was going to be something different but I didn’t read anything about the film before I started watching it. And this is my absolute recommendation to anybody who is thinking of watching this film. Don’t read anything about it. Just watch it. It is different, obscure, unusual, political, weird and overall awesome!
Would I watch it again? Yes! Would I make my friends watch it? Absolutely!

Fantastic watch, will watch again, and do recommend.
This is one of the best, if weirdly refreshing movies I've seen in quite some time.  I'm a sucker for a good survival movie, and this is an "elites hunt people for sport" trope mixed with a good mystery plot if there ever was one.  The story structure alone is worth the watch as it essentially runs 3 (-4) sequential stories to tell one overall story while telling you about the story structure.  Some movies clearly p...

Satirical look at Left and Right in a “Most Dangerous Game” setting
Several non-Liberal people wake up in the middle of nowhere, possibly Arkansas, to discover they’re being hunted by cutthroat Leftwing radicals. 
"The Hunt" (2020) takes the basic-Zaroff scenario of "Open Season" (1974) and "The Hunger Games" (2012) and applies it to the Left’s ire toward “deplorables.” Unlike those other two flicks, this is an amusing sati...

Basically, there are a ton of 1 star reviews on IMDb complaining that it makes the left look bad... despite, you know, things like Antifa and their belief that a red hat means they gt to physically assault people.
So I am going to give it 10 stars... because my wife had a milk shake thrown at her for being a "race traitor" and, on our way back from work we got egged (along with everyone else at a red light) in an attempt to convince us to support impeachment.
And, beca...
