An exciting thoroughly enjoyable film about the tensions in Bosnia, Serbia and Montenegro. An accurate analysis of the political scene that remains from the end of the Yugoslav civil war.While the premise is a little farfetched it still smacks of reality.Go see it!
This is a poignant drama with just enough laughs to keep it real. Terrence Howard does some fine work on camera and as the narrator. Richard Gere is adequate. The new guy does well.Film raises some good questions about international politics and back room deals.
Half the critics don't know what they're talking about. Movie was terriffic. Acting by all was spot on. Plot not entirely believable, but makes you think about the dumb back room deals undoubtedly made by governments/politicians. GO SEE IT.

Black comedy becomes funnier as the action becomes darker and more perilous, but The Hunting Party fails to locate the absurdity in the central situations and goes for midget jokes instead. In the end, you're not sure if you're supposed to be watching "The Three Amigos" or "Hotel Rwanda." Full Review

When a movie is a hybrid of this sort, it can be tough to strike just the right tone. Mostly, The Hunting Party manages. Full Review

Truth be told, none of it is actual living, and all of it is secondhand re-spinning of such better movies as "The Year of Living Dangerously" and "Welcome to Sarajevo." To use an antiquated newsman's cliche: Get me rewrite. Full Review

Writer-director Richard Shepard assembles all the elements for a dark suspense comedy only to lose his way in a surfeit of plot mechanics and unlikely behavior. Full Review

A misfired, misguided would-be satire. Full Review
