Critic Reviews

  • J. R. Jones, Chicago Reader

    The action plot is lousy with cliched suspense scenes of back-road executions halted at the last possible instant.

  • Claudia Puig, USA Today

    ...The Hunting Party still is a movie worth chasing down.

  • Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle

    The Hunting Party is a complete bust, but the ways in which it fails are interesting.

  • Amy Biancolli, Houston Chronicle

    ...it does make room for the latest, loose-screw character part in the reinvention of Gere's career.

  • Terry Lawson, Detroit Free Press

    The Hunting Party has good aim, but just misses.

    This is a very well done, really exciting movie. I am starting to search out anything with Richard Gere in it, anymore. He doesn't do a ton of movies, but what he does do always proves to be of really good quality

    Absolutely another best movie Ive seen in a while!!! The only reason why this is a notch above others such as "Battle in Seattle" is because of the two leads, which also happen to be two personal favorites of mine, and they were great. Gere should really become recognized… More

    An excellent movie. A brilliant gem of a film that develops the story and characters finely. An explosive, tremendously entertaining and terifficly fun thriller. It's thrilling, frequently funny, gripping, engagging and exhilerating. A great mixture of serious drama and wicked… More
