Yes, you heard (read) me correctly. _______ Hunter is a film where cinematic wishes actually come true! What follows is my actual conversation with myself while watching this amazing film. (Paraphrased of course) "God these guys are talking a lot. Thirty seconds really does seem too long here. I wish a fat dude in a Jeep would drive through the window." BAM! "You know, they are hitting a lot of cool action movie staples here, but I do wish I could see some white guy kung fu in a cardboard dungeon....
