What the critics said

Notable Critics

""Glow" star Betty Gilpin plays [Crystal] with almost sociopathic cool in an inspired and strange performance that splits the difference between Linda Hamilton and "No Country for Old Men" baddie Anton Chigurh."

— David Ehrlich

""The Hunt" turns out to be a good deal smarter - and no more extreme - than most studio horror films, while its political angle at least encourages debate, suggesting that there's more to this hot potato than mere provocation."

— Peter Debruge
