Customer Ratings & Reviews

While it may not reach the heights of Richard Shepherd's previous film, The Matador, The Hunting Party still has plenty to offer. It has the same witty dialogue, fun (but real) characters, and dead-on balance of humor and heart. Many have objected to the film's supposedly blackly comedic portrayal of war crimes, but the film does not draw its laughs from the actual atrocities; in fact, it treats them respectfully, tastefully, and with the appropriate sense of tragedy. The humor comes from this group of characters, the rapport they develop, and the increasingly insane situations they get themselves into as they get further and further in over their heads.
