The Hunters (1996)
3/10
Very poor
26 October 2014
Got this on DVD not long ago but having watched it now, can I have my money back and the time it took to watch it? Perhaps we have been spoiled by some fine Nordic Noir in the last few years,and thus bad writing,improbable "plot twists" and incoherent "drama" stands out all the more...I really don't know. Loved the stunning landscapes,it's only redeeming quality but the whole"people who live in remote,rural parts of the world are bloodthirsty ,sadistic,racist,etc,etc ,bla,bla,bla" idea has been done to death. Let's be honest,the real weirdos live in big cities... Sure,Peckinpahs "Strawdogs"is a masterpiece that defines this type of movie but this flick does not reach up to old Sam's ankles... This"Deliverance"in Norrland falls flat on its face. I've been told that the sequel,that I've bought but I've yet to see, is better... Boy,let's hope so... T
