Most Dangerous Game

What begins as an intriguing premise careens into total implausibility when it jumps the shark at the confessional. While I enjoy Christopher Waltz's smarmy villainy and Liam Hemsworth's dashing persona, they are not enough to redeem this cat-and-mouse escapade. Don't waste your time.

I enjoyed it. Each episode had plenty of action or suspense to keep you engaged. But this format has to keep high engagement to keep you coming back daily for 3 weeks.

However, I can't say I'm a fan of the Quibi format of 7-9 min daily episodes, or just waiting for the series to complete then binge watching. It makes for good bathroom viewing, I suppose, or if you need a quick break for the day. I don't think I'll be continuing with Quibi beyond the trial when there's already so many online viewing options. Quibi seems to be great for our attention deficit culture.

Although the situations were ridiculous, for sheer entertainment not to be taken seriously, the movie and acting were okay.

You could run thru a long list of impossibilities and lucky breaks for: the main character, the egotistical stupidity of the hunters, and the bravado of the hunt organizer.

And even though the Tiro Fund has an efficient cleaner, the hunters (as well as the hunted) leave trails miles long. Their organization would have been busted ages ago.

As for the controversy over the Quibi format and breaking a movie into multiple quick chunks (at least when played on Roku and similar channels), they do it to intersperse 45 seconds of commercials every 8 to 10 minutes between episodes. Hulu and others practically do the same thing, but even worse, by breaking up movies or episodes every 10 to 15 minutes with a full two minutes of untimely commercials that destroy continuity.

If it didn't have Hemsworth and Waltz in it, this'd be a 3.9 star rated low budget it is, the star power is making people rate it much too high. It's not just the plot holes, like wouldn't the hero plan his last day on Earth a little better, maybe scout locations, pick those with best odds of survival rather than run off at random? The biggest problem this movie has, they spent so much on the two big guns they couldn't afford decent villains so we're stuck with hopelessly cast sub par actors and to make it even worse, the villains are just bad. The icing on the cake is the Quibi format, it just kills what little cinematic pleasure there might be left. Best skipped and forgotten about.

This could possibly be the best acting performance in Liam Hemsworth career. This show is filled with action and suspense. I have enjoyed every episode so far, it might be a little slow at first, as you may be like me eager to know how this is going to occur and if he will survive. It is an interesting concept that makes you curious of what will happen next. Liam does a very good job at allowing you to build an interest and relationship with the character. The possibilities for the way this show will end is extremely interesting. There seems to still be plenty of content left and the suspense I am sure will continue. It's a good watch, every episode brings something new.
