Hunter's Moon (2020)
2/10
What was I thinking? 81 minutes lost
25 January 2021
I could've watched paint dry, snow melt in the spring, or sandpapered my eyes, literally anything else would've made more sense.

Did a director suggest "we need an actor who's known, but not high priced? Someone we can get to act like an uneducated dimwitted sheriff?"

And someone thought of Thomas Jane? What's even more shocking is that he agreed to do this. It's awful, and I mean that in the most literal terms There's no character building, no plot to follow, nothing at all.

Part of the story involves a very in-depth plot that was somehow arranged by strangers in less than a few minutes. And it sets the tone and pace for the entire movie. A tone that just continues to disappoint scene after scene. In fact, I don't think any part of the transitions between them added up to a plot.

But, like a toothache, you just poke at it with your tongue, I stayed on until the end. Hoping beyond hope that at least one of the people claiming to be actors and actresses would pull a hail Mary and prove themselves as masters of their craft, but nope.

There is a part you'll enjoy though. Most would've left the theatre before this, but the credit? They were a welcome sight.
