An in depth review, synopsis, and analysis of After the Hunt (2025), which I gave 3 stars. My main sentiment is that this had an excellent cast, cinematography, set and costume design, but its weak screenplay undermined them all. Film is a collaborative medium and it’s only as strong as its weakest link.
