The Huntress of an Acting Coach
dave-145-51526624 May 2022
Yikes. How many grade school productions of Guys and Dolls did the casting agent have to sit through before finding Lowri Watts-Joyce? That was brutal.

Surprisingly boring
supermellowcali24 May 2022
A woman hunts ww2 nazi war criminals. While this sounds like an exciting story, it has zero energy. The movie is mostly talking heads, slowly explaining its own plot and Auschwitz anecdotes. The acting is barely passable but otherwise it's a competent production... just uninteresting. I'd suggest passing on this one.

Waste of time
collioure_bee13 August 2022
What was Rula Lenska doing taking part in this? Was it a favour or is she that hard up for work?

This is dreadful from start to finish, poorly acted, directed and the script is utterly laughable with some really cheesy clichés thrown in and so many feed lines not picked up on. I would liken it to a local am dram group getting hold of a cam corder but that would be insulting to the am dram group.

Don't waste your time. Totally unbelievable in any realm of the imagination.

Oof

This movie is just plain bad. From horrible acting to cheesy one liners, you'll be praying for this to come to a swift end. I was surprised to find out that the director. Richard John Taylor has two other movies. I will be avoiding them.

Needs a better cast
Vonpelt28 May 2022
Lowri Watts-Joyce is possibly the worst actress I've ever seen. Can't believe how badly she delivered her lines - I've seen better in high school drama productions. This movie bored me to tears. I ended up quitting before the end.

Terrible
cmetcalf-8928924 September 2022
I don't think I have ever seen such a badly acted film.

I don't know what the producer or director were thinking.

There are no words to describe how bad the acting is. There are a couple of actors of notoriety in it, but I seriously question why they took part in such a movie.

On a serious note, it is an insult to anyone who died and survived in this concentration camp.

I feel that they have used the name of Auschwitz, simply to attract viewers and created a story simply to make a film.

It should be withdrawn from public viewing with immediate effect.

The lead actress should also attend a drama school and learn how to act.

my grammy poots better films
GSK2323 May 2022
Stunningly bad. Not only beyond tasteless and offensive by exploiting what's barely left of WWII revenge fantasies (tarantino killed that genre outright with his ridiculous tripe), but badly constructed, etc.

One semi famous name: Rula Lenska.

She should have known better.

Then the dim-witted "huntress" (ugh, nice dated and sexist name) lead is portrayed by someone that most like runs around topless in low-rent straight to video productions made for and by frat boys.

Utterly unfun, unbelievable and beyond stupid.

Save your life and never even vaguely entertain the idea of watching this film.

Lmao
pranitmagar10 July 2022
I watched the whole movie and couldn't stop myself. Im baffled by the fact this movie is on horror genre...i mean fr?

Alright for the review, The huntress is hilarious. What's with the okiedokie? 😂 Full of Terrible line delivery except for Lenska tho. I actually liked her accent and acting. It's a 4 star ONLY for her, but the whole movie is trash, doesn't connect any dots at all. All im left is just utter confusion. Not recommended.

What is your real name
nogodnomasters1 August 2022
Warning: Spoilers
Lucy (Lowri Watts-Joyce) hunts down Nazis from Auschwitz who would have to be fossilized about now. She gets a clue from the dark web about a man (Jeffrey Charles Richards) and goes after him. The man sounds like he is from New York. But she ties him up anyway.

It was low budget entertainment. Tied up man claims he is not the gut. Lucy insists he is. Lowri Watts-Joyce didn't seem right for this role.

Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity.

Dreadfully bad
kelliott-0255614 July 2023
I don't often give up on a movie but I gave up on this one three or four times before finally forcing myself to watch it until the end. The premise sounded interesting but the story was ridiculous and the lead character's acting was horrible. Perhaps I missed the explanation but the ex-Nazi guard they exposed was now living in the English countryside, apparently had lived in New York for some period of time, had the most American accent you've ever heard, and looked nothing like you'd think a 95-ish year old ex-Nazi would look (though he was a pervert, so I guess that fits character). Weird dream sequences and flashbacks/flashforwards that just served to confuse everything. Do yourself a favor and pass on this one.

Dynamic: fast moving :credible Story line :
cds-6751212 July 2022
This movie features actors largely unknown.

The storyline of a grandchild of people murdered in Nazi Germany has been told before my best particular story I single out as being not only a very good movie but also quite an emotional storyline.

Is after a slow start the movie move quickly in the hunt for a Nazi perpetrator of war crimes and ultimately successful. Hi

I hope you enjoy this film as much as I did on the ending can be viewed as surprising.

Surprised
GoldenGooner043 August 2023
Read the reviews and thought it going to be cack, but in-fact it was not, it was a very decent little film. Not what I was expecting i admit and the lead actor had never heard of her before.

But Rula Lenska was superb, and for her the acting was from the heart, one review said "she must have been hard up to take this part" that person does not know her background very well.

She is Polish her father was sec to the Minister of Foreign affairs in Poland before the Nazi's invaded. I can think she might have made this film for free.

And of course we know that Auschwitz is just outside Krakow in Poland. If you had bothered to look up her history you might understand the film a lot better. Not even the planks who are so called critics bothered it seems the shots of Auschwitz were strong as it was so unexpected. Yes it was stupid when you work out the years, but the film deserves more credit then it gets.

One very bizarre thing as the film starts and the names of the companies involved appear, did I just see Den Watts from Eastenders? For a few seconds.

Fantastically Awful
zwiyny31 October 2023
Some of the worst dialogue and acting (particularly by the lead) I've ever seen. Woeful! But somehow I sort of saw most of it. A wonderful waste of time.

Apparently I need to keep writing more. Please don't waste time reading more. There are so many better things to do! The lead actress is so awfully bad. It's like she is reading her lines sight unseen. Oh dear! 235 more characters needed! I can only assume the producers were related to the lead. The few times English actors are involved, the quality rockets, despite the writing. Perhaps the producers should note this next time that they cast...in the unlikely event someone backs them again.

Low budget film
Barney000725 May 2022
Low budget thriller, probably shot in less than a week. The acting is ok and there are some decent scenes / dialogues between the main characters. If you watch the film in the context of the budget then the production is actually not bad.

Wow?
Timsm1028 May 2022
Disappointing that cancel culture is rife in IMDb with film enthusiasts publishing some pretty inappropriate comments about child actors. Not a gripping film and could have done a lot more with the storyline but I'll give it 5/10.

Slow burner but decent effort
Trev827228 May 2022
The film is ok but then it takes a long time to get going and not much happens until the Huntress comes face to face with the Nazi war criminal that supposedly killed her grandfather. The rest is quite enjoyable. Thought the acting was fine even if the script was a bit slow.

The punisher
kosmasp19 January 2023
No pun intended - a low budget movie, so do not expect too much here. And of course as with many movies that give you a binary option, no brownie points for guessing if our main character is right with her ... assumptions or not. But this is not everything - or rather there is more to be uncovered along the way.

Also the main actress is quite good looking - and she can act. Again this is not a movie with a big budget and actors that you have heard of. But with the limitations it has, it does the best it can. Of course with a title like that, it probably will catch your attention just because of that.

Seen worse movies, especially when it comes to cinematography - so there is a lot to be found here - again no pun intended. I liked the story and how it was build up to get us to the inevitable ending ...

Quite enjoyed it!
luxemporium728 May 2022
I'll admit I am a big fan of low budget films and this has a better than average production and cast for this genre. Sure there could have been more action scenes but I suspect that wasn't possible. The only slight thing that is confusing is that whilst Lowri Watts Joyce (17), could easily be the granddaughter of someone murdered by Jeffrey Charles Richards (74) the film would have needed to have been set 30 odd years ago for that, but at one point they are using mobile phones?! Still, an enjoyable film nonetheless and even if not everyone's cup of tea, I though the lead actors both did well. I didn't actually realise Watts-Joyce was British not American until I looked her up and also thought she was much older. The supporting cast was also perfectly adequate and the cinematography and editing is also good for the budget.
