Hunting Ava Bravo

I mean, this is not even worth watching on freebee channels. It is just that bad.

It was basically over in the first three minutes, when the kidnappee bashes the killer in the head (though she could have just stopped him from coming out of the basement in the first place -- after he left a message saying, "I'm coming out of the basement, please don't bash me in the head, as that would not be sporting").

At least no b-roll wolves were harmed.

I am not sure why people knock so hard.. it really is not horrible or even bad. Yes the whole relationship if we can call it that between the villain and victim is weird for lack of more appropriate adjectives. I feel that the villain was horribly miscast but at the same time, the ending somewhat explains him. We understand why he is doing it and what he wants which if we go back throughout the movie, does make sense. A lot of the stupid things suddenly make sense.

They do try to explain a lot of the stupid things that both characters do.. its not like they do them just for doing them. The script does try to say yes, this is stupid, it makes no sense, but this is why they are doing it... there is a reason for it. It is a lot of choices that aren't really choices. It is easy to forget, she cannot kill him because she needs him; killing him makes it worse for her no matter what. That's a fact of the situation. He cannot kill her, because well, you will see at the end. Once you connect those things, it becomes much more realistic.

The ending i really felt would go the other way of how it went. Maybe i just have a soft spot for lost puppy souls...

Billionaire sportsman Buddy King (Marc Blucas) unwinds by hunting human captives on his remote mountain estate. But his latest victim, Ava Bravo (Kate del Castillo), is no easy target, and his expected easy kill turns into a deadly game for others as Ava tries to escape the hunt he has set for her.

I like the story, simple but effective and rather moving as it unfolds. Kate del Castillo carries the film almost entirely on her own shoulders. Had it not been for her strong performance I suspect I'd have lost interest. Marc Blucas simply doesn't have the acting chops to carry out his role effectively.

Nevertheless the film had me tensed up several times, and full of unrealised expectation as it had prepared me to be paranoid and always fear the worst. The dialogue wasn't the best in the world but then again I have heard much, much worse. There's plenty of red herrings and twists in the plot to keep it very interesting, although there are a few plot holes. However these are simple ones that allow to story to arc so I forgive them. All in all it wasn't a bad film at all thanks to del Castillo, and I gave it a strong 5.

Who votes for these films?? Absolute waste of time. Terrible acting, ridiculous storyline and a complete waste of 78 minutes! Characters that you don't care if they live or die.

A very badly made thriller made in 2022. The story of the hunted and the hunter trying to be made. But it's made so stupidly that you literally throw an hour and a half away. The characters are crap. The hunter man speaks with a constant grin. The woman thinks she is very smart, but every move she makes is stupid. In general, the transformation of the prey into the hunter creates excitement for the audience. In this movie, there is a grinning type whose purpose is not understood. No tension, no element of fear. A movie was made for free. The man and the woman walked on 20 square meters.

There is no sex or nudity in the movie.
