Hunted

I wouldn't say this was laughably bad, but you really do need to turn your brain completely off to find anything of worth here. Uninspired, over-the-top pervy, characters that I couldn't care less about, and even with an 86 minute runtime; it felt like it dragged on.

"Hunted" is an Action - Thriller movie in which we watch a young woman trying to survive in the wilderness after some incidents that occurred after meeting a man in a bar. She tries with all of her power to survive and protect herself.

I have to admit that I did not have high expectations from this movie so, I was not disappointed by it. The plot did not make any sense at some points and the direction which was made by Vincent Paronnaud was below average since he did not present very well his main characters, something that created plot holes which were not covered. I did not expect it to be a masterpiece but I also did not expect it to be so bad. Lastly, I have to say that "Hunted" is not a good movie and I do not recommend anyone to watch it because I am sure that you will waste your time.

This movie is not horror but is the next level of stupidity and bad acting, it's so bad that is entertaining, people that give high ratings are probably from the crew

The whole reworking of fairy tales has been done so often that you'd have to come up with something quite special to create anything original and different. Unfortunately Hunted is neither.

For a such a simple plot line it manages to get incredibly tied up in itself. The basic premise isn't new, a psychotic criminal, a vulnerable woman, an idiot sidekick.

At one point this movie starts to move in an interesting direction as Eve escapes and gradually becomes absorbed into the woods. Nature begins to become part of her and some form of symbiotic relationship.

But this interesting direction quickly falls apart and for some weird reason a bunch of paint ballers appear out of nowhere and all of a sudden we find ourselves in some crappy version of survival horror.

There's too much going on in this, it's pulling in all sorts of different directions and ultimately failed to deliver.

Found it likeable...in a High Tension sort of way...An updated I Spit on Your Grave perhaps, but without the rape-y scenes that make most squirm in their seat. It's not a "depth" film, as some of the reviewers apparently were led on to believe, but a throwback to the 70s-80s slasher/exploitation. I guess there wasn't much plausibility in those films either---stare at the screen and just take it in, stop looking for plot holes and believable script. It's almost like a full generation missed the boat on these sub-genres of film and race to the imdb page to pan a decent film.

These are probably the same people that walk out of films at Sundance, as some form of self-righteous protest.

Let's just say, this is one of those throwback films, but with a different spin, and not necessarily because it is European---but some symbolic references in nature to the 'Big Bad Wolf' and the "babe in the woods" (ala Red Riding Hood), campside storytelling--- nothing, again, too deep, just adds to the story a bit.

If you liked the film 'Revenge' from a few years back, this one sits in the same headspace, but less of the desert and more of the woods. Good cinematography and sound editing and very tautly directed.
