An all too familiar chase movie that's not worth the talents involved.

There is a chase sequence between Hallam and Bonham through the streets of Portland that begins promisingly enough, but soon becomes so ungainly I had no idea what was up and where was down. Go to Full Review Matt Brunson Film Frenzy Dec 8

It's depressing enough when lousy movies manage to snag the services of one talented Oscar winner, but finding two stranded in the same drivel seems like an especially monumental waste of resources. Go to Full Review Justin Harrison The Spool 10/05/2023

mark g @Mark_Alan_G. Nov 6 Not sure why anything less than praise can be attributed to this brilliant film. Jones Del Toro are both great, outshined only by the beautiful natural forest shots. This is a man's movie, not for little girls. See more Bill E Oct 30 Jones can run 35 mph? See more Kirsten W. @kirght Oct 19 Good story. Very good acting. See more James H Aug 11 I really Enjoy both of the main actors, I think they do a good job with what they were given. I can be totally off the Mark but seems kinda of a copy of the Idea of Rambo 1. The acting is not bad, what really effects it for me is when they try throwing in moral points etc is kinda lost. The action and the acting is Good for me, just could have been way better then it ended up being. I will watch again for sure. See more Carlos I Jul 17 The low score for The Hunted is baffling to me; I've always loved this movie. It's basically another attempt to recapture the magic of The Fugitive, but I genuinely like it even better than that film. It's brutal, moves swiftly, and I particularly enjoy the dynamic between Benicio del Toro and Tommy Lee Jones. See more Chief B May 5 Don't listen to the reviews.. This movie is great.
