Just looking at the poster, you can see that this film is not simple. Against the black background, there are a few particularly conspicuous white comments: what is true madness and evil; deliberately inciting the division of the country.
This movie is about a battle royale, which takes a group of people into a closed environment and then stimulates a fierce struggle and resistance. This is the so-called "battle royale" mode.
This kind of game originated in ancient Rome, when the rulers liked to put wild beasts and slaves together in the Colosseum, and let them continue to fight until they died together. Later, this savage fighting game was gradually wrapped in the coat of civilization, and began to enter literature and film and television works, such as "No Life", "Murder on the Orient Express", and "Battle Royale" by Shinji Fukasaku. No matter how you set the tone for this type of film and television, you will find that it is often nested with trials of human nature and political metaphors, and this movie is no different.
The director of "Hunting" positioned the film as a social thriller. The film basically covers all current social hotspots in the United States, such as gun control, refugee issues, free speech, as well as abortion, AIDS, women's rights, etc...
However, anyone who has watched this film will understand that it neither deliberately elevates the elite nor favors the commoners, but it is actually satirizing the confrontation between the two classes.
As said in the movie: "If you write that it's true, think it's true." In the turbulent wave of public opinion, too many people only believe what they want to believe, and then step on the truth under their feet. Isn't this magical spectacle that is happening every day now, and is also the most ridiculous?
