My Deer Hunter Dad

I like coming of age movies, Danny McBride and comedies. What's not to like. There's a purposeful back woods element that might turn some off but I loved it.

Think it was filmed in Shenandoah mountains too!

This film tells the story of a hunter who takes his son for a hunting trip for bonding.

The film features stunning scenery, and a lot of believable human interactions. It is a good film describing bonding. The boy is quite convincing as a spoiled kid, and the father makes a lot of effort to bond with the son. I enjoyed watching it.

Tolerable father son adventure comedy but really nothing special our outstanding. A father tries to reunite and connect to his son by going with him on a hunting trip, which is not only showing him about his profession but also a family tradition, but of course the young boy doesnt really care for that. Yeah the story is noting new or special at all nor is it very inspired. The film however has good qualities in the acting department. Josh Brolin was great and took his role very seriously. Good performance. Also Montana Jordan was pretty good as his son. Danny McBride tolerable as the sidekick. The film had beautiful images and a very nice cinematography. But besides that it fell rather flat and even at the rather short running time often appeared to be overlong and boring. The father son thing was predictable and something we saw in dozens of variations hundreds of times on screen already. Still it was not a complete waste of time, but probably could have been much better.

I don't think I would like it but it was ok. Entertaining. The boy wasn't the best actor though

Think it depends on people's sense of humor. We thought it was funny. A mild funny but funny dad and son coming of age hunting movie. The scenes were beautiful. Give it a chance.
