The Hunt | Full Movie | Movies Anywhere

There is definitely a cutting satire to be made here... yet the film ends up taking potshots at so many subjects that it just ends up missing its targets. Rather than an impressive trophy kill, the end result is a disappointing flesh wound

Craig Zobel’s The Hunt purports to be a satire, but I am unconvinced its makers know precisely what they are satirising.

The Hunt is a clever, gory good time. In a perverse way, it’s about unity and coming together.

The idea at the core of “The Hunt” is a worthy one. We could certainly use a clear-eyed reminder of how toxic and sectarian our political discourse has become. I’m just not sure this is the movie to do it.

By skewering everyone, deserving or not, the film skewers no one. If you’re going to make a satire promising to anger everyone, you should come with a more insightful script.
