Night Hunter

I honestly don't know what is going on, maybe it's people who have an all or nothing response. I didn't expect this movie to be amazing, but for something streaming free on Prime, I thought it was great! Wonderful cast and acting, good thriller and action. Yeah some things, if done differently would have made this better, in my opinion the finale came out of nowhere and was one more clue that wasn't really needed. A couple of other things, like the father, weren't really sketched out. And I had a hard time buying into the Rachel-Simon relationship. But overall, if you're looking for an entertaining Friday night thriller, I definitely recommend this!

Rotten Tomatoes didn't like it much and there is talk of a hold-up in the release of this flick. I thought it was pretty good. If you like Silence of the Lambs type flicks and give it a willing suspension of disbelief, I think you'll be pleasantly surprised. Plenty of star actors, great production value and crazy, crazy script. There are some holes here and there but hey, it was fun. Give it a chance.

This film tells the story of some police force members who investigates a man who kidnapped and imprisoned many women.

The plot starts off fairly promising, but soon derails into confusion. The characters' actions are poorly explained, and I just don't understand what is happening most fo the time. Then comes a big twist, which makes things even more confusing. One of the final scenes on the ice confuses me even more, and I just have no idea what I just watched. This film is a big disappointment, given the number of famous faces involved.

Brendan Fletcher's acting is the highlight. Similar like Aamir Khan's from Dhoom 3. The cat n mouse game between the inmate n the cops is thrilling like Law Abiding Citizen. The film is about a person (Fletcher) held in police detention for the abduction n murders of several girls. He is caught with the help of a vigilante (Kingsley), who sterilises pedophiles n rapists. They shud have focused more on the character of Ben Kingsley. The film has shades of Dhoom 3, Primal Fear, Law Abiding Citizen, etc. Alexandra Daddario looked way too beautiful to be a cop/profiler.

Some really good names in this movie, and Henry Cavill is an excellent detective character. The plot is ok but everything is completely rushed into 1hr 30mins, for example one of the supporting characters dies in a targeted attack - but why that person? What were they doing that made them a relevant target? Very odd! Another half an hour of movie time could have made it a decent Saturday night movie, but for a Tuesday night during lockdown it's watchable.
