The Hunted Review
by John Ulmer (Rating: 2.5/5)
I had a really good dream last night. It was about this madman killer who is on the run, and only one professional, ex-cop knows the secrets of how to catch the killer. We find out that the killer and professional have some sort of connection between...more

William Friedkin's "The Hunted" could be aptly retitled "Hide and Seek." There is the hunter and the hunted, and all they do is hide from each other and then get into prolonged knife fights. Seek and you shall find, and thus you shall be pierced by sharp...more

Monet painted lots of water lilies. Kean painted sad-eyed children till his fingers grew numb. Lots of artists repeat themselves, trying to wring another drop of divinity from the same sponge. So it should not necessarily come as a surprise to...more

Susan Granger's review of "The Hunted" (Paramount Pictures) As Johnny Cash's intones the lyrics from Bob Dylan's "Highway 61 Revisited," this formulaic catch-the-killer story begins in 1999 in Kosovo, where Aaron Hallam (Benicio Del Toro), a U.S....more
