Moviegoers are saying
Mel Gibson's latest direct-to-video thriller 'Hunting Season' divides audiences between those craving his grizzled screen presence and viewers expecting more than formulaic cabin-in-the-woods action. While critics universally praise Gibson's commanding performance and an infamous lawnmower torture scene, most agree the film suffers from glacial pacing and predictable plotting that tests patience before delivering its violent payoff.

sipovicDec 9, 2025Believe it or not I had some fun with this one? I know, HUH? Most of this had to do with Mel Gibson's steely, odd and gritty performance, combined with Raja Collins's massively slow and very psychological burn type of direction. So when you combine those factors this film…

Benjamin GreenMay 17, 2026A passable effort for what it is but probably a bit too slow and formulaic for its own good. The villains are ruthless and vicious enough for you to want to stick around to see them meet their demise, with grizzled survivalist Mel Gibson on hand to dish out a bit of rough…
