Fear and loath with Gere



Movie: The hunting party

Cast: Richard Gere, Terrance Howard and Jesse Eisenberg

Director: Richard Shepard

Verdict: '''u00a0


A post-war Bosnia, with three misguided war journalists and a not-so shabby Richard Gere with puffy eyes that have seen a world of sorrows and the closing times. The Hunting Party is a movie worth watching, especially to see how inhuman a man can be with other men, women, babies or dogs.

A TV war reporter Simon Hunt (Gere) loses his job after suffering from an on-camera meltdown while reporting from war-struck Bosnia in mid 1990s. He now roams around the globe selling exclusive tapes to make a few quick bucks. He reunites with his friend, cameraman Duck (Terrence), the most sought-after in his previous company, to begin a fresh adventure. They start their hunt for the bad man who is responsible for the whole war.

What's hot: Richard Gere is way too sexy to be the worn-out war journalist. Camera work is pretty good.


What's not: Terrence is completely wasted in the movie. The occasional popping of blood and corpse just to remind you how gory war journalism is!u00a0u00a0
