Hunt to Kill

Plenty of mayhem,wrestling,kick boxing action loosely strung together as a passable adventure story.

I first came because a friend recommended I try their world famous salads. I was pleasantly surprised they also served tacos as well. Against my better judgement I ordered a fish taco...maybe the best decision I've ever made. This taco changed my life. The service was atrocious and the bathrooms smelled of death, but this taco took me away from all of those worldly problems. Highly recommend, but don't use the bathroom

I put off seeing "Hunt To Kill" for a long time, after coming across several negative reviews of it; I only rented it the other day when I was able to rent it very cheaply. After seeing it, I can understand what provoked those negative reviews. To be fair, not everything about the movie is disappointing. The production values are pretty good, the British Columbia locations the movie shot at are attractive to the eye, and Steve Austin shows he can play a tough and charismatic protagonist. If he can get on projects with good scripts and directors, I predict he could have a healthy B movie career ahead of him. Unfortunately, "Hunt To Kill" is not well-written or directed. The movie is surprisingly dull for the most part, with endless bickering between the characters and very little action for the first hour. What action there is isn't well-constructed, with poorly chosen camera angles and edits. Eric Roberts fans beware: He only appears for just a few minutes.

This is quite possibly the stupidest action movie I've ever seen. The plot, is cliché, sure, they all are in this genre now. There is a reason that Stallone and the Spermanator are famous for their abilities to make crappy plots work.

Stone Cold doesn't have that, the dude is a good actor, and was a great athlete, but they have to stunt doubles for him RUNNING for christs sake. And as awesome as a clash between "Steve "I drink beer and have rough sex with fear" Austin" and "Darth Maul" could have been, it's not. It's the antithesis of what you'd expect from such a showdown.

I mean, there is a low speed ****ing ATV chase, and seeing Austin pop a wheelie on a four wheeler to smash a bad guy into a wall, before shooting said ATV with a flare... Was beyond my tolerance for stupidity, I was hung over, on the couch, and helpless to turn this off since my xbox controller was out of reach. I'm warning you ahead of time so no one else has to suffer. Don't watch this.

It's ironic that anyone who claim to have wasted their life watching these kinds of movies, somehow still find the time to write a review about how much they dislike the movie... This action film, yes, "action" film, does enough to keep you intrigued. Could it of been better? Sure, but it is entirely watchable and entertaining. I also recommend "The Package" and "Maximum Conviction", if you enjoy Steve Austin movies.
