I like movies that get you from the start and this is one of them. The tension is kept till the end, even as the story takes a few unlikely turns here and there.

The cinematography is just great and really adds to the story; watching this will put you in that wide and deserted area on a hot summer day. This movie is perfect in its genre.

Hunting Emma is one of those "surprises" you come across in cinema once in a while. On first inspection this looks like a "I Spit on Your Grave" knock off. Thankfully, its not.

Better yet its a really enjoyable South African flavoured take on the survivalist horror genre. This film works well first and foremost because its story holds together convincingly well.

There's a well thought out back story that explains Emma's ability to take on what would, for most people, be insurmountable odds. This is married up with Emma's other advantage, her superior knowledge of the environment, which her hunters fail to fully appreciate, until its too late.

There is predictably a lot of violence on offer but what's refreshing is its not overstated or gratuitous. Indeed, the emphasis here is on Emma's survival. She does what she does primarily because she wants to live.

The fight scenes in this film are plentiful, polished and sit comfortably alongside decent gun play, which includes a tongue in cheek nod to Spaghetti Western style showdowns.

If you like the idea of survivalist horror but want something "dialled down" then Hunting Emma is for you. 7/10 from me.

8/10 for the camera work 3/10 for the writing(cliche) 6/10 for the main actress 4/10 for the rest of the cast 7/10 for her car(he broke down well) 6/10 for the entire movie because mainly the camera work and main actress that got me to finish the movie

As a South African I try not to be bias when it comes to our films but I tend to favour our writing but this storyline has been exhausted by hollywood ,let's try again though,same leading actress,producer and camera crew

Good film with strong characters, good filming for a low budget!

Good cast. above average in the revenge style movie. main actress physical . recommended. enjoy. saw wt English subs.
