The Hunt Movie Analysis

803 Words4 Pages

Movie Review – The Hunt The hunt; although the title may suggest that it’s a scheduled chase of some person or animal the movie in fact is far away from that. Released in the year 2012 which was loaded with mega budget –Avengers, The Amazing Spiderman 2 , The hunger Games and Skyfall to name a few- blockbuster movies, It really needed something special to lure the attention of the audience to spend their time in the genre of drama and I must say director Thomas Vinterberg has done a brilliant job in achieving that.

The news spreads and as you can expect the entire town turns against Lucas-ignoring him, not allowing him to buy from shops, throwing stones at his house etcetera- including his best friend Theo (Thomas Bo Larsen) who firmly believes that his daughter is not lying but later we find out that his judgment was purely emotional. Amid all this the director slowly inserts the character of Nadja(Alexandra Rapaport)-which according to me is superfluous- who starts dating Lucas, keeping the story fresh and engaging the audience to an even field before raising the theme to its
