“Hunter”: When Enthusiasm and AI Aren’t Enough for a Coherent Story
The Brazilian filmmaker Alexandre Alonso’s Hunter is a film with a lot of ideas, but with very little holding those ideas together.

Dandy and his ruthless hitmen target Vicente’s family as their next victims, demanding a large sum of money through threats and intimidation. Their calculated blackmail tears Vicente’s marriage apart, pushing him and his wife into separation. But their greatest mistake is crossing a line that can never be undone — murdering Vicente’s innocent daughter. When Vicente uncovers the truth behind the scheme, he realizes it was all nothing more than extortion. Consumed by grief and rage, he sets out on a relentless hunt for the men responsible. What begins as blackmail turns into a brutal war of vengeance — and Vicente will stop at nothing until justice is served.
