Movie Reviews

St. Louis Post-Dispatch - 9/10 by Joe WilliamsTo keep serious cinema from going extinct, this could be sold as "The Hunger Games" cross-bred with "The Lorax," but it's better and more mature than either of those hit movies.
The New York Times - 9/10 by Stephen HoldenThe Hunter never declares who is good or bad or right or wrong. And the implications of Martin's decision when the moment of truth finally arrives are left for the viewer to unravel.
New York Post - 8/10 by Kyle SmithDafoe proves to have the right blend of ruggedness and sensitivity for this conflicted hero. The actor's habit of maintaining a lavishly styled coiffure in all situations, even when his character is meant to be sleeping in the rain for days on end, is becoming distracting, though.
The A.V. Club - 8/10 by Sam AdamsThe movie fumbles badly when it's time to turn those actions toward resolution, forcing an ending that seems both arbitrary and cruel. At under 80 minutes, the movie is terse enough that it could do without trumped-up events.
Movieline - 7/10 by Michelle OrangeScene by scene The Hunter, adapted from a novel by Julia Leigh, holds your attention like a pair of big, inquisitive eyes, or perhaps the point-blank scope of an automatic rifle.
Los Angeles Times - 7/10 by Mark OlsenThe film is at its best when Dafoe is simply going about the ritual tasks of his character's work, setting up a camp or laying traps in the wilderness.
Austin Chronicle - 7/10 by Marc SavlovDafoe, as expected, is magnificent in the taciturn role, but the film tends to falter when he's not out stalking, combining as it does elements of family drama, environmental outrage, and outright suspense.
Time Out - 6/10 by Joshua RothkopfYou watch Dafoe's intelligent hands skillfully setting traps, building fires and squeezing triggers, and wonder if an entire movie might be made of such manly components. Probably not.
The Globe and Mail (Toronto) - 6/10 by Adam NaymanBy the time The Hunter jettisons its narrative ballast altogether and embraces its elemental appeal, it's too late. The near-mythic grandeur of its final scenes is less a welcome payoff then a suggestion of the truly striking film that might have been; it's ironic that a movie about a man who sets traps for a living would itself end up ensnared by formula.
ReelViews - 6/10 by James BerardinelliThe Hunter works best as a travelogue and a thought-piece about the ugly, shadowy side of resurrecting dead species.
