Jagten (2012)

80

Based on 5 critic reviews provided by

90	The Hollywood Reporter David Rooney Propelled by Mads Mikkelsen's shattering performance as the blameless man whose life threatens to be destroyed, the film is superbly acted by a cast that never strikes a false note or softens the impact with consolatory sentiment.
80	Total Film Vinterberg keeps us guessing right up to and after an end shot that suggests how tough some viral rumours are to shake off.
80	The Guardian Peter Bradshaw It is forthright, powerful, composed and directed with clarity and overwhelming force, yet capable of great subtlety and nuance.
80	Empire David Hughes Beautifully performed and tough as nails, Vinterberg's social drama could not be any more timely.
70	Variety Boyd van Hoeij Mikkelsen impresses here as a warm-hearted man who finds himself caught up in a situation way beyond his control.
