THE HUNTING PARTY




Drama

PRINCIPAL CAST MEMBERS
Richard Gere: Simon Hunt, TV correspondent
Terrence Howard: his cameraman Duck
Jesse Eisenberg: Benjamin, recent Harvard school graduate

REVIEW
The role taken on by Gere calls for a wide range of thespian skills, some of which he handles well (the flippant attitude, his hard-drinking, tough talking manner) but the more heartfelt emotional scenes come across as fake.

Speaking of fake: supposedly based on a true story, the whole premise is shaky and brings into question how seriously one should take this film?

Answer: Not very.

CLASSIFICATION
for strong language and some violent content.
