What is the point of the movie The Hunter?
An elite hunter secretly hired to locate the last Tasmanian Tiger (extinct but, in this film, recently sighted), get genetic samples for a pharmaceutical company and then destroy all traces of it. He soon runs into serious problems.
Is the Hunter movie a true story?
The ending is somewhat sentimental and cheesy. The film is based on a true story - which probably could have used some embellishment. McQueen gives a pretty good performance and it's fun to see Levar Burton in one of his earlier roles. Recommended for hard-core McQueen fans only.
Why did he shoot the Tasmanian tiger in The Hunter?
Plot. Mercenary Martin David is hired by military biotech company, Red Leaf, to go to Tasmania and gather samples of a supposedly extinct marsupial, the thylacine (Tasmanian tiger), with further instructions to kill all remaining tigers to ensure no competing organisation will get their DNA.
Is The Hunter a good movie?
The Hunter was a beautifully filmed, well acted and moving movie. Willem Dafoe was at his best as well as most of the cast. In my estimate this is what movie making is all about and I just wish Hollywood and the rest of the film making industry would aspire to do more.
