Max Gao AV Club The premise of The Hunting Party—searching for serial killers whose ill-advised treatments have rendered them even more vicious—is intriguing in theory, but the writers have somehow chosen the dullest possible execution of that vision. Rated: D+ Feb 15, 2025 Full Review Aramide Tinubu Variety In what feels like a mix between NBC’s “The Blacklist” and CBS’ “Criminal Minds,” the series is disturbing, and a tad predictable -- but is an overall engaging watch. Feb 6, 2025 Full Review Brian Tallerico RogerEbert.com It’s a show produced by algorithms and focus groups, a product with no pulse whatsoever. Feb 3, 2025 Full Review Joel Keller Decider The Hunting Party is a generic action series that seems to operate on twists that either aren’t that surprising or are pretty much useless. Feb 5, 2025 Full Review Tim Stevens The Spool The Hunting Party is a rather mediocre affair. Great idea, for sure, but the execution isn’t there. Feb 4, 2025 Full Review Randy Dankievitch Processed Media In its current state, The Hunting Party is too leaden to be fun, and too predictable to really be shocking or exciting; but it's less a matter of having incongruent pieces, than a series that just needs to recalibrate its tone and storytelling approach.

John D Utterly stupid. Bad acting. Stupid scrip. 100% predicable. AVOID! Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/16/25 Full Review Magnus A Dreadful. Watched two episodes so far. Lazy stories and dull scripts. Actors seem to have given up. Just awful...! Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/15/25 Full Review patrick s Great cast, show has very high potential, seemingly off to a slower start but hopefully the future of the season brings more originality. Let's give it time and see where it goes. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/14/25 Full Review Scott S Fox’s Alcatraz is the same show but it was in my opinion way better then is show. I’ll give it a shot but I’m willing to bet it get cancelled. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/14/25 Full Review Lauren K Has a good premise, acting is promising. Very interested to see where it can go. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/13/25 Full Review Stacy M It is a different premise which is refreshing. Good cast and after only a few episodes looks very promising.
