THE HUNTED follows FBI agent Abby Durrell (Nielson) and her new recruit, L.T. Bonham (Jones) - a specialist in deep-woods tracking, as they team up to track and hunt down trained assassin, Aaron Hallam (Del Toro), who made a sport out of fatally shooting deer hunters in the forests outside Portland, Oregon. Using his well-honed nature skills to locate Hallam, Bonham soon finds himself and his partner lured into a gut-wrenching game of cat and mouse. With ruthless precision and murderous skill, Hallam remains one step ahead of his pursuers as Bonham and Durrell try to outwit him in the natural and urban wildernesses before Hallem turns them into his next victims.

Um thriller propositadamente frio (ao estilo de Insónia) e bastante cru, que se distingue particularmente pela utilização de música discreta em passagens onde se esperaria uma grande orquestra. Obviamente para conseguir mais autenticidade e naturalismo. A primeira parte, mais lenta e de cliché, é prejudicada pela fraca caracterização dos personagens e pelos flashbacks do passado, por vezes estúpidos, que no-los apresentam. Na segunda metade, no entanto, a ação pura entra em cena e o filme ganha um ritmo decente e um elemento sangrento picante. Realmente muito cru para um filme de mainstream - raramente se veem tantas feridas cortantes num só filme. Os atores são bons, mas mereciam uma psicologia melhor elaborada. Connie Nielsen está de novo muito, muito bonita.

Benicio Del Toro and Tommy Lee Jones are not suited for this. If I were a highly paid Hollywood actor, I would also wake up in the middle of the night in horror of becoming poor and instead of trips to the most famous resorts of the world's elite, I would have to spend my vacation in Beverly Hills. In reality, the presence of these two A-list actors is one of the few advantages that this action spectacle has. Above all, it is evidence of the decline of director William Friedkin, who was once able to shoot top-notch action films with a smart script and concept. He hasn't forgotten his craft, and he can lead his actors with a firm hand, but the script falls into the typical genre deficit, where it is necessary to turn off your brain in order to overlook the many illogicalities and stupidities. It is also very bloody, to satisfy the viewer's thirst for brutality. In the real world, of course, an older pursuer would not be able to keep up with a young warrior and certainly would not be able to use the method of fighting that both actors demonstrated in the finale. Overall impression: 25%.

Decent. On the plus side is definitely the central duo Benicio Del Toro and Tommy Lee Jones and solid knife flourishes, the final fight is decently brutal and features a few nice fatalities, but I expected the whole film to take place in the rainforest and unfortunately it doesn't, the relocation to the city slightly spoils the impression, but still a nice one-shot. 65

An interesting addition for fans of pure action movies. William Friedkin has basically given up on any narrative structure and the story races forward like a runaway train in the most simple and linear way possible. But what they did pay attention to is the rawness and coldness of the setting, the absolute minimization of visual effects, and the overall very austere and ordinary style of direction, in which the elemental combat technique krav maga stands out. The fights are incredible and unusually clearly filmed for Friedkin. If we overlook the initial staged and unrealistic action in Bosnia, the viewer who doesn't expect too much will not be unrewarded.

A bit like a shabby first Rambo. The rawness and Friedkin's adept coaching of the action scenes is brought down by a clichéd story, a bunch of implausibilities (the whole opening scene from "Bosnia") and a load of outright plot bullshit. Or would you choose to quietly sheathe your knife as you fled, chased by hundreds of pursuers?
