Av: The Hunt

Without shadow of a doubt, this was my favourite film of the online Frightfest. Some gripping performances and edge of the seat moments, made even more scary that for some women this is their reality. If you are considering watching this film, don't hesitate. Definitely worth a watch.

This is an excellent film tackling an important subject while at the same time a tense thriller throughout. Well acted and directed and beautifully shot. No easy routes taken in this anywhere. Highly recommended.

People in Turkey actually think like this? What a backwards society.

That aside, it's a pretty good action flick. Good scenery.

The lead actress needs to shave her armpits, but otherwise she did a good job.

Turkish movie important in the denunciation of honor crimes still cruelly perpetrated against women, in a country that is candidate to enter the European Union, practically unpunished. It is commonly accepted in this patriarchal society. I recognize the relevance of the issue, but in my opinion is a only reasonable movie, nothing innovative. I have seen this theme dealt with much more strength in the seventh art. Don't make history, but it does contribute to change the present in Turkey. I recommend it only for its relevance.

Not perfect by any means, but I enjoyed it. The camerawork had its moments, the acting was good. It's a movie that really gets you on the edge of your seat and makes you empathize with and root for (some of) the characters. I will say that the ending was a bit of a bummer - as someone else has said, left an open wound. Still, I would recommend this one.
