Neil Young The Hollywood Reporter 01/28/2020
A slow-burningly sensitive character study, which spices up familiar art-cinema techniques with genre inflections... Go to Full Review

3/5

Gary M. Kramer San Francisco Bay Times 10/29/2020
Viewers will likely feel conflicted and unsettled as Young Hunter plays out.... Berger takes a calculated risk here, but his skill as a filmmaker delivers a satisfying payoff.... This story is uncomfortable, but it needs to be told-and seen. Go to Full Review
Paula Vázquez Prieto La Nación (Argentina) 05/28/2020
