The Hunted

I really like this survival story very much. Its bit depressing in the middle but the story is presented in highly engaging manner. Once the hunt started, there is no dull moment.

The best part is that the viewer can feel the pain and survival instinct while watching this.

I was taken on an emotional rollercoaster. It was acted beautifully. I found myself invested from the beginning.

For me this is the best movie this director ever made.

It is emotional, inspiring, super intense and fast paced entertainment.

The soundtrack is well within the movie and in some bits we only ear the suspense track at a very low level, it cause on us a little fear.

As you can tell by the title, the result of one of the missions did not end very well. This mission as a whole was a major failure that left its sole survivor in shambles, and with a very important task, with an entire organization on his tail, he will have to use what he learned in the army so that he can overrun the skills of Havoc and the mercs.

We also got Drake the leader, that trough the movie calls Havoc giving orders to kill everyone and bring the box back to him.

Whatever is in that box everybody wants it, so Lawson must reach an extraction point in order to be safe, but what he must endure to reach it, is pain and sorrow.

The film has plenty of bloody violence.

It´s an 8 out of 10 for me.

The film has some amazing locations and scenery and was very well paced. The fight and actions scenes were excellent with some decent gore thrown in where necessary. My only nit pick was I felt it could have been a little longer in duration.

It doesn't get carried and is pretty believable until the final chase scene. Along the way, we are treated with some nice woods, of which is nicely filmed.

The cast are able to create fairly complex characters, Miguel D. Dias is back as the enemy leader, this guy always gets the job done, even his voice is menacing, good character.

But the best is the staging of the chases, the staging of the fights, and the spectacular stunt work.

The Hunted is an action/chase film in the tradition of First Blood, but it doesn't have the firepower of that film (to its benefit, the emphasis here is on brutal hand-to-hand combat).

At first, The Hunted felt like just another run-of-the-mill soldier movie, but then it took a turn I wasn't expecting and ended up being quite inspirational. This film in brutal in a variety of ways, and it features some very impressive stunts and solid performances.

The story moves at a great pace and yet spends enough time with the men to draw you and make you really feel for them.

The gun fights are very good, again you get the feeling of been there with them and having the fear of danger. Stunt work is a standout point.

You will really get into the horrific experience of being in the battle zone. This will make you admire and appreciate these brave men who do their unenviable duties in the face of death out of sheer patriotism. This is a frickin war movie, not for the faint at heart. 9/10.

What a christmas present to have the bluray of this incredible movie, congrats to all the team and cast of this great movie.

For those of you that have never worn a uniform, this movie will clearly show why we Veterans will always be so close with each other. Its something you can't explain to others. Its something you can't put into words. You simply cant learn it from a book. You have to live it to understand.

This film is a heart wrenching, fast-paced war thriller.

The movie is full of high suspense action and the cast is top notch. All good actors that did an excellent job.

As far as war movies are concerned, it's a 7.5 for me.
