Mads Mikkelsen (NBC's Hannibal, A ROYAL AFFAIR, CASINO ROYALE) won the Best Actor Award at the 2012 Cannes Film Festival for his penetrating portrayal of Lucas, a former school teacher who has been forced to start over having overcome a tough divorce and the loss of his job. Just as things are starting to go his way, his life is shattered when an untruthful remark throws his small community into a collective state of hysteria. As the lie spreads, Lucas is forced to fight a lonely fight for his life and dignity. (c) MagnoliaIf You Like this movie you can streaming The Hunt movie without downloading HERE

TagLine The Hunt Invisible. Silent. Stolen.Review For Movie The Hunt
Thomas Vinterberg's The Hunt conveys the sinister swirl of persecution more vividly than any film I can remember.Chris Vognar-Dallas Morning News
Through it all, we see an idyllic-looking community, where glorious fall colors fade into twinkling December snow - a pretty frame for a terrifying story of a modern-day witch hunt.
Moira MacDonald-Seattle Times
It's hard to watch. It should be seen.
Tom Long-Detroit News
Vinterberg orchestrates the material impressively, increasing tension little by little until it becomes overwhelming.
Ben Sachs-Chicago Reader
The Hunt offers a powerful, provocative study of mob mentality and the fabric of trust.
Steven Rea-Philadelphia Inquirer
Danish actor Mads Mikkelsen delivers an astonishingly restrained and expressive central performance in The Hunt, an engrossing psycho-social drama by Thomas Vinterberg.
Ann Hornaday-Washington Post
The injustice story might be upsetting but it tells us nothing we don't already know about the horrors from a rush to judgment that turns out wrong.
Dennis Schwartz-Ozus' World Movie Reviews
Grimly one-note and miserabilist.
Tim Brayton-Antagony & Ecstasy
A nursery school student, angry at her teacher, says something stupid which leads to a witch hunt in a small Danish town. Tension builds inexorably in this intense drama about a teacher accused of sexual misconduct.
Robert Roten-Laramie Movie Scope
This is a serious treatment of what it is to be [accused of a sex crime], and it is much more disturbing than anything in a Hitchcock thriller.
Mark R. Leeper-Mark Leeper's Reviews
Vinterberg uses a sharp cinematic knife to cut to the core of the matter: that the human heart can never be entirely civilized and, ultimately, each man is alone with his fate.
Thelma Adams-Yahoo! Movies
Thomas Vinterberg ("The Celebration") creates a modern-day "Crucible," a frighteningly plausible examination of how suspicion can spread through otherwise decent people.
Rob Thomas-Madison Movie
Credibly generates suspense and maintains interest, even if one wonders why the filmmakers felt compelled to pursue this particular subject matter for their tale of a wronged man.
John Beifuss-Commercial Appeal (Memphis, TN)
... a movie of uncommon power about the evil that well-meaning people commit when given license by what they perceive as atrocity.
Philip Martin-Arkansas Democrat-Gazette
A strong, moving portrait of a man shunned by the only society he knows for reasons he can't understand, marked by a stunning lead performance from [Mads] Mikkelsen.
Frank Swietek-One Guy's Opinion
It is a movie about the rush to judgment and the tyranny of the majority. What happens to Lucas is utterly unfair, but it also makes for a cautionary tale as well.
Anders Wright-San Diego Union-Tribune
Scarier than your average horror film
Robert Denerstein-Movie Habit
Of a piece with Arthur Miller's The Crucible and Lillian Hellman's The Children's Hour, two other works about persecution and hypocrisy.
Matt Brunson-Creative Loafing
Mikkelsen (now freaking out Americans as the title character of NBC's "Hannibal") gives the persecuted Lucas a gravity and an intensity that make for compelling viewing.
Sean Means-Salt Lake Tribune
The Hunt is like a low blow that keeps on swinging even when you're down and out. It is constantly putting your emotions in the crosshairs and seems to flourish the most whenever you feel your stomach drop from the hell that Lucas is put through.
Chris Sawin-Examiner.com
Strong performances complement the smart and engrossing script and a slowly building tension that blossoms to a piano-string tautness.
Mike Scott-Times-Picayune
A Gripping Look at an Epidemic of Fear.
Charles Koplinski-Illinois Times
The film clearly wants us to be uncomfortable about many things; it's not a stretch to imagine that the implications of the premise are among them.
