2020 Directed by Craig Zobel
Twelve strangers wake up in a clearing. They don't know where they are—or how they got there. In the shadow of a dark internet conspiracy theory, ruthless elitists gather at a remote location to hunt humans for sport. But their master plan is about to be derailed when one of the hunted turns the tables on her pursuers.

me vs trying to figure out what side of the political spectrum this movie is on
i can't say with which of these two i identify the most... the pig or the dude who asks where the hand sanitizer is
“The Hunt” begins with a bunch of NPR-addicted neoliberals poaching a wild pack of Trump-worshipping MAGA types for bloodsport. Director Craig Zobel’s ultra-violent satirical update of “The Most Dangerous Game” aspires to be the movie that America needs right now; it’s a giddy slaughterhouse of mirrors that hopes to bring this country together and make it great again by reflecting the absurdity of us vs them resentment. The movie literalizes the rhetoric of a culture war that has divided the United States into “globalist cucks who run the deep state” and “redneck deplorables” with little wiggle room in between. Blumhouse’s latest blast of low-budget social commentary tries to split the difference between centrists and nihilists — between “bothsidesism” and “nosidesism”—…
okay a few points:
- she kinda snapped
- I blinked and emma roberts was gone
- I LOWKEY LOVED THIS IM SO SORRY FILMBROS
Look I'll give this credit for a commitment to cheap thrills and, like everyone else is saying, Betty Gilpin was a lot of fun. But this is mostly just kind of smug in its calling out of what's allegedly dangerous hypocrisy on both sides, and the caricaturing it has to do in order to make that argument -- which is exactly the kind of lazy shorthand that generally gets labelled satire these days -- is consistently eyeroll-inducing.
Satire (noun):
the use of humour, irony, exaggeration, or ridicule to expose and criticize people's stupidity or vices, particularly in the context of contemporary politics and other topical issues.
Farce (noun):
a comic dramatic work using buffoonery and horseplay and typically including crude characterization and ludicrously improbable situations.
You pick.
Cause the makers clearly picked one and made the other.
Sorta like Battle Royale but with the potent expression of adolescent rage concerning adult condescension and senseless violence replaced with a bunch of broad American culture war signifiers. Not even half as provocative as it thinks it is and the action mostly sucks.

SYNOPSIS: Twelve strangers wake up in a clearing. They don't know where they are, or how they got there. They don't know they've been chosen - for a very specific purpose - The Hunt.
I still held out hope that it would be released eventually following its cancellation last September because of the political backlash it received, and luckily Universal still had the guts to do so. In fact, their recent media spots have only exploited the controversy of the cancellation/delay…
"Why do you own 7 guns?"
When I heard about this movie, I thought it sounded in absolute poor taste. Certainly, I wasn't going to go to the movie theater to see this film. However, due to circumstances beyond my control, this was Saturday's film. For the first time, I ended up at the AMC in Arcadia, CA.
"Just calm the f*** down!"
The movie opens with a group text. The film title is written in one of the texts, which made for an interesting transition. Its strength is so many strong characters. There's a rumor on the internet that a bunch of "elites" are shooting up "deplorables". Athena (Hilary Swank) thinks using that word is better than "rednecks". I…
