Budget the Hunt
11 September 2022
Warning: Spoilers
This film has a very similar beginning as the Hunt (2020) which is a satire of what if the previlaged & morally/ politically corrupt were rounded up and forced to play a life and death game. The prize is an escape to freedom & there are no second places: you either live or die. It is stacked against them but whilst you live you have a chance.

This does not have that complex idea rather a lady is kidnapped and forced to play a game (Saw inspired) & within 5 minutes she bests the antagonist.

Instead of killing him with his gun, she spares him & locks him up instead... This must be for plot convenience. There is another mystery man in film.

It is just stupid as it descends down the predictable cat and mouse game in which both of them are trying to out smart one another! It even used the unconventional concept of reserved Stockholm Syndrome! If that doesn't make one shake their head in disbelief & consider ones life choices then I don't know what will... To sum up, avoid this unless you are accustomed to watching a below average film.
