Hunted

Well, at first after seeing it has only 4.7/10 I did not expect much. I actually thought it might be one of those movies you stop watching after first 15 minutes of it....however I was in for a quite surprise :) It has huuuge potential and great general primesse. It was shot nicely, some interesting scenec and concepts. Samantha Bond is just brilliant. Now, the plot and the screenplay do suffer from cliches and obvious expectations, hence I almost gave it 7/10 if there weren't for such a messy third act. In all generalsenes I would enjoy a sequel. Anyhow, nice little indie film. Do give it a watch and don't let such a low ratings turn you away from it. Cheers.

Is this film a master piece? Its not far off.

I genuinely didn't know what i was walking into when I started watching this. Had they the budget this would have REALLY worked as a TV Short. If they had a bigger budget again I think the whole premise has a market.

The concept is quite basic, the acting from the lead hunt woman is high quality! There was just something missing and I feel this was in the establishment of relating to the hunted.

I wish we had more time exploring the characters and getting attached to them prior to the set up. The film did try and the cinematography and audio landscaping carried us flawlessly through the adventure.

Give it a watch! :)

Just a bit of harmless ridiculousness. This film fails in so many ways. Biggest problem is you don't care about any characters, you actually root for the aristocracy (the funniest thing in this piece) who are trying to bring back a bit of order in this blighted society of ours. Really enjoyed watching the bungling "burglars" get what they deserved. In better hands this might have been a bit more of a thriller but I just found it predictable a bit boring and completely unbelievable. One of your mates gets ripped to pieces by a pack of hounds and you get over it in seconds. The hunted show no trauma after seemingly experiencing the worst of horrors.

An attempted robbery of a grand family home goes wrong for four young thieves.

Firstly, it's nice to watch a film that has a ninety minute running time, they seem to be a rarity these days, the problem.....the last ninety minutes.

I liked the storyline of the movie, and I liked that it featured Samantha Bond and James Lance (even if I haven't fully recovered from his atrocious accent in The Canterville Ghost.) Both are a somewhat flat here unfortunately.

It's a story of revenge I guess, but it's just impossible to have sympathy with any of the characters, a set of thieves, or a set of vigilante aristocrats in riding gear. None of the characters feel real, they are caricatures and stereotypes.

It felt pretty cheaply made, I guess that it clearly didn't have much of a budget, but it's such an unimaginative production.

I don't think it's worthy of a 1 or 2 star rating, nor can I see anything to warrant it getting anything towards the higher end of the scale either, it's just too flawed.

4/10.

British thriller, produced in 2022, with the main theme of manhunt. One of the most common topics. A group breaks into a house for theft and is caught. Then they become the prey of hunters. Although it is not such a high-quality, high-tension movie, it is watched. It is not difficult to predict who will survive, which hunter will die first, and other events within the film. In these, just like in Hollywood movies, jokes can be made 2 minutes later, even if there is a deceased sibling or relative. The ending was not what I expected.

All the characters are repulsive. The most innocent is the first to be sacrificed.

There is no sex or nudity in the movie.
