Media Author Review
United States
The New York Times
"Nothing in 'Death Hunt' makes a great deal of sense, though the scenery is rugged and the snowscapes beautiful. The screenplay is full of unintentionally funny moments" 
United States
The Washington Post
"Sounds hard to mess up, but Death Hunt is so unconvincing that you never once stop asking yourself, 'Why is this manhunt necessary?'"
United States
TV Guide
"A few moments of good, visual storytelling aren't enough to save this frustrating film"
Canada
The Globe and Mail
"What 'Death Hunt' is a piece of is neither entertaining nor educational"
