Critic Reviews:
Director Emre Akay (who co-wrote Av with Deniz Cuylan) gives us a cat and mouse thriller which blends action and social commentary smoothly: neither slow down for the other, and it is clear to see that survival films of this sort can fit comfortably in any contemporary culture.
The lack of in depth character elaboration or exploration is a huge failing in the Av: The Hunt and almost derails the message and power of the whole film.
Not only does the film have plenty to say, but it’s excellently shot and powerfully acted, making this one of the most essential pieces of feminist cinema since Revenge. AV: The Hunt is not only the best film this year to have ‘The Hunt’ in the title, but is also one of the best films this year, period.
