  • a theater divided.

  • Welcome to watch Mojo.

  • And today we're counting down our picks for the top 10 reasons why the Hunt is dividing everyone.

  • The last I heard free speech still exists.

  • Don't First Amendment me.

  • It wasn't really for this list We're looking at why critics and audiences seem to either love or hate.

  • The latest horror thriller from Blumhouse Productions Number 10 The delayed release.

  • Before even hitting theaters, the Hunt was already stirring up controversy.

  • The plot revolves around a group of conservatives who are selected to be hunted by a group of wealthy liberals.

  • Every year, these liberal elites kidnap a bunch, a normal folks like us and upon us for sport.

  • A setup like that was destined to anger at least one side of the political spectrum.

  • But Universal and Bluhm House faced some other unforeseen issues.

  • Prior to the film's release movie, The Hunt has been killed breaking just now.

  • That kind official film will not be released by Universal now, in the wake of last weekend's to mass shootings, the hunt was originally supposed to hit theaters on September 27th 2019 following Tragedies and Al Posso and Dayton during August.

  • That same year, the studio decided to push the release date back several months out of respect.

  • This drew more attention to the film and its premise, causing some to make up their minds without giving it a fair chance.

  • Wait Number nine.

  • The president's response.

  • In the wake of the postponed release and pulled ads, Fox News prematurely gave their two cents on the hunt.

  • The conservative news outlet quoted Media Research Center VP Dan Gainor, who said the film proved that Hollywood was quote demented and evil.

  • Days later, Donald Trump tweeted quote.

  • The movie coming out is made in order to inflame and cause chaos, presumably addressing the hunt.

  • Producer Jason Bluhm, however, noted that the Hunt was quote probably the most judged movie that's ever existed, that everyone who judged it hadn't seen people know where they are.

  • All right, most people.

  • The irony is that the hunt is about people who jump to conclusions on social media without having all the facts.

  • Of course, early critics would have picked up on this if they had really watched the film number eight early test screenings a day before pulling the hunt from its release schedule.

  • Universal held a second test screening for the film, which apparently didn't go over much better than the first.

  • According to the Hollywood Reporter quote, audience members were again expressing discomfort with the politics.

  • The same day is the poor test screening executives from Universal and the filmmakers reportedly had their lives threatened online.

  • This allegedly hostile response eerily parallels the extremes that certain characters go to in the movie.

  • A Universal spokesperson denied that the test screenings attracted negative feedback, however, saying quote the film was very well received and tallied one of the highest test scores for an original Bluhm House film.

  • Honestly, we wouldn't be surprised if there's truth to both of these contrasting reports.

  • So it's true.

  • Were being hunted Number seven, the advertising eggs critics on.

  • Rather than tiptoeing around the backlash, Universal decided to turn lemons into box office lemonade.

  • As Paul Dergarabedian of comScore put it, along with a new trailer, a poster was released reading Quote.

  • The most talked about movie of the year is one that no one's actually seen to make the film look extra taboo.

  • The poster also showcased unflattering quotes from outlets, calling it quote sick, quote, gory and quote a disturbance to our country.

  • While some critics feel that the film didn't quite live up to that edgy poster, other is like Donald Clark of The Irish Times found it.

  • Quote appalling end quote.

  • Irresponsible in the best way possible.

  • Let's just say that if the poster speaks to your in a rebel, you'll get what you paid for.

  • How'd you know?

  • Choose life because everyone is lying.

  • Number six.

  • It subverts expectations.

  • If you haven't been keeping up with the initial reactions, chances are you'll go into the hunt anticipating a straightforward horror flick.

  • Yeah, this is a film that constantly toys with your expectations, pulling a Marion Crane more than ones you wanted it to be, really?

  • So you decided itwas, whereas some will see this is a welcome change of pace.

  • Others may grow frustrated that the film sets up certain plot elements only to then have them vanished out of thin air.

  • Considering the toxic Internet culture is a key theme, though, it's actually quite fitting that the hunt playfully trolls its audience on multiple occasions.

  • What is happening?

  • What is all of this?

  • Even if you have been following the controversy, the way the film portrays both major political parties will still likely catch people off guard, for better or for worse.

  • Number five, It's graphic nature, given the polarizing political climate and ongoing gun control debate.

  • Some critics have deemed the hunt dangerous.

  • In the after mentioned Fox News article, DePaul University professor Jeffrey McCall was quoted calling the film quote harmful to a culture that surely needs messages of unity and understanding.

  • In a Variety interview, though, director Craig Zobel disputed such claims, stating quote.

  • If I believed this film could incite violence, I wouldn't have made it.

  • Variety's Peter de Bruges would go on to give the Hunt a positive review, arguing that the film was quote too far fetched to quote inspire copycat behavior.

  • While the film touches upon real world issues, the Gore is handled in a cartoony, over the top manor akin to evil.

  • Dead, ready or not, and even the works of Quentin Tarantino glorious.

  • There are unsolved everything else.

  • Number four.

  • It's this year's Joker defending the hunt, Jason Bluhm said.

  • That quote it was Red as a satire, no different from the Joker or other movies that are violent.

  • The Joker comparison is pretty spot on.

  • Yeah, that's not funny, Arthur.

  • That's not the kind of humor we do on this show leading up to their releases.

  • The political subtext and graphic content in both films were heavily discussed.

  • Like Joker before it.

  • The critical reception towards the hunt has been all over the map.

  • Some hailed it as a bold, timely satire, while others felt it wasn't nearly as smart as it makes itself out to be way have an opportunity here to teach these people thes are not really people.

  • They're actors.

  • Even with mixed reviews, Joker went on to score a best picture Oscar nomination.

  • While we don't see the hunt going that far, it does have cult following potential reminiscent of the cabin in the woods going for it really Number three.

  • Its depiction of the far right the character is being hunted in the film are referred to as quote deplorables, a phrase coined by Hillary Clinton to describe Trump supporters.

  • I can't do that this point shoot.

  • With a few exceptions, the quote unquote deplorables depicted here are generally gung ho, uneducated and quick to shoot first, ask questions never.

  • One man in particular is also overtly anti immigration.

  • I'm playing an Arab refugee but identifies White.

  • I think that's problematic to in some way.

  • While the far right characters do conform to obvious stereotypes, A.

  • O.

  • Scott brought up an interesting point in his New York Times review.

  • The words Make America great again are never said.

  • The film manages to be on the nose without directly referencing the Trump administration or the president's followers.

  • In retrospect, it kind of feels like conservatives were getting upset over nothing, especially since the Hunt is an equal opportunist political satire.

  • I'm not going down number two.

  • It's depiction of the far left.

  • If you want a film that goes after far right ideals, keep in mind that the hunt takes Justus many shots at the far left.

  • How about a glass of champagne?

  • Perfect Hunters in question are liberal elitist who argue if it's okay to call African Americans black.

  • And if it's appropriate to say, guys, if a female is present, we paying for everything so this country belongs to us.

  • Don't even think about saying that climate change is a myth.

  • Like PC principal from South Park, they see themselves as the good guys and their modern views aren't necessarily without merit, hunting human beings for sport than not human beings.

  • They take things too far, however, by shaming and threatening those who don't share their beliefs.

  • While some may see this depiction as quote problematic, the truth is that every political party is capable of succumbing to extremes.

  • What kind of sick people would even think of something like that?

  • White people were the worst.

  • A matter gate.

  • Every year, these rich elites kidnapping bunch of normal folks like us where they get you from Wyoming.

  • Orlando, To quote Matin Otto of we got this covered quote.

  • If you get outraged by the hunt, you're not paying attention.

  • Although it was originally titled Red State versus Blue State, this is ultimately a Purple State movie, which is inclined to work those with narrow political views.

  • But state is this.

  • Sorry?

  • You don't understand the question.

  • Some have applauded the film for urging each political party to look in the mirror and acknowledge that both are part of the problem.

  • Others see this as a cop out that doesn't provide any real insight.

  • Whichever side you're on, Betty Gilpin steals the show as Crystal, who has no political agenda.

  • She simply wants to get out of an insane situation alive.

  • And we can all identify with that in today's divisive world.

  • Of all the people you kidnapped of all the people you killed, you picked the wrong game.

  • Lady, you're crazy.
