Dialogue was so bad I had to keep myself from laughing in serious scenes. Did ChatGPT write this?

OMG, Kraven has officially become my new favorite superhero movie! From start to finish, it was packed with non-stop action—seriously, not a single boring moment. As an animal lover, I was so moved by how the movie brought a superhero to life who takes on real-world issues, like the hunting and mistreatment of animals. It really hit close to the heart. The effects and fight scenes were next-level epic. I loved the concept of Kraven living a nomadic life in the forest, building his own weapons from nature and using every tool he creates to fight. The raw, gritty fighting scenes, complete with bloody and gory moments, felt like watching a live-action version of Mortal Kombat—it was that intense! The actor was incredible, and the storyline kept me hooked the entire time. I can't wait to watch it again (and again)! I really hope they make a sequel because this movie left me wanting more. Definitely a must-see for any action or superhero fan!

Kraven The Hunter doesn’t entertain. The only thing it does right is release the hostages after two hours.

Aside from the obviously unintentional humor, the quality of Kraven the Hunter is severely lacking. Perhaps that’s all the recommendation you need for some dumb fun at the movies.

Clocking in at a slow-jog time of 2 hours and 7 minutes, filled with howlingly bad CGI creations, green-screen scenes that would have looked rudimentary in the early 2000s and clunky dialogue, “Kraven” doesn’t even provide much in the way of camp value. It’s just an undercooked pile of steaming mediocrity.
