The Hunt

2020 • 90 minutes

About this movie

In this subversive satire, a group of elites gather for the very first time at a remote Manor House to hunt ordinary Americans for sport. But the elites' master plan is about to be derailed because one of The Hunted, Crystal (Betty Gilpin, GLOW), knows The Hunters' game better than they do. She turns the tables on the killers, picking them off one by one as she makes her way toward the mysterious woman (two-time Oscar® winner Hilary Swank) at the center of it all.

Ratings and reviews

This is very similar to previous battle royale movies. However, they put a very capable "Salt : Angelina Jolie" type in an unexpected lead. She has very little back story and that's fine. This movie is a run and gun type story with a few slow pieces in the middle. I enjoyed it as much as I did with Purge, BR, Blenko etc. It is quite fun and yes it's very political, however they're the extremes on both sides. Which is obviously satirical and making fun of both groups. It's merely a propellant for the story and that's really it. I watched the whole movie with a smile more or less on my face, because it wasn't meant to be taken seriously. I'd recommend this to friends who like action or just like these types of movies.

This was supposed to be a thriller and all it did was make a joke out of Democrats and Replicans. I'm not a fan of the two party system myself but you don't see me making a multimillion dollar dumpster fire of a movie to bash on it (and not even in a funny way) do not give them your money. If you want this sort of thing done right go watch the purge.

Terrible movie. Definitely the worst movie I've seen this year, and one of the worst I've seen in a very long time. The first 20 minutes of the movie seemed like there would actually be something to the plot, but unfortunately it went way down hill. Very predictable if you pay any attention. The dialogue was very very corny. Don't waste the hour and a half on it.
