Too dimwitted to be disappointing. Go to Full Review

Like a Luc Besson film put through a deflavorizing machine to remove any element that could be distinctive, energetic, or fun. Go to Full Review
Joe Leydon Variety 06/09/2017
A routine but reasonably diverting B-movie about a conscience-stricken hit man and the girl he opts not to kill. Go to Full Review
Jason Best Movie Talk 12/28/2017
2/5
The modest scope of B-movie action thriller The Hunter's Prayer can be gauged by the fact that its big-time criminal tycoon (played by Downton Abbey's Allen Leech) has his international headquarters in Leeds. Go to Full Review

angela g 11/15/2023 this is a great underrated action movie with cool fight scenes and great acting See more 07/08/2022 It's just meh… the villain is completely unbelievable and the supposed thick network of bad guys and dirty business is never explored enough to make any of it credible. Some action scenes were decent enough though. The Movie could have been so much more. It felt lazy See more Lalmani T 06/25/2021 Great plot, magnificent cinematography. Refreshing characters and acting. 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 See more 06/23/2021 The Action Scenes Were Good, But The Plot Twists Had Stupid Holes & Parts (Specific Character Alliances) That Came Out Of Nowhere & Really DID NOT Make Sense. See more 03/27/2021 Cool amazing film just awesome See more 10/19/2020 This was really unbearable to watch. Had to switch off after an hour of watching! Storyline lacks depth; poor acting; and a hell of a lot of mumbling from the lead actor! See more Read all reviews
