Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay

A Major Disappointment

In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

Not going to waste as much time on review that i wasted watching it. dont know where to start, but after first 10 mins i was disappointed. the story had promise, but just didnt make it happen. if you see it for $1 in the bargain bin at the used dvd store, pass it by.

Wow people are incredibly critical for what was a TV movie. It was a good movie. It might not have been the best I've ever seen. But it was solid enough.It had good actors. The plot and character development could have been more, but you can't expect perfection from a TV movie.It had suspense with a certain amount of surprise. Decent direction, good special effects.The movie ended with me wanting more.To all the people saying the story has been done before.... sure there's similarities. Once Upon a Time, Indiana Jones, The Liberians, Warehouse 13, etc. But most stories have been done before and redone into something else. This story was original enough that it was boring.

Other reviews say "Indiana Jones meets the librarian"... and frankly that's an insult to the librarian.. Indiana Jones has cheese in it as its a cheese burger and an essential ingredient in its composition, but this movie "THE HUNTERS" is lacking actors, direction and a decent script. Its trying to be a hamburger and all it has to offer is stale bread. It feels 'made for television' and the special effects (I wont call it CGI because it looks worse the 1977 Star Wars episode 1.) Bottom line is don't watch it. Even if you think 'I'd really like to watch an adventure movie' please don't. I'm trying to help you!

Spoilers Below. But if you want QUALITY, then you won't care.The Hunters is a TREASURE Hunter movie. Imagine Spy Kids, Disney's Snow White & 7 Dwarfs, Little Red Riding Hood, Cinderella, Lara Croft movies, and clichés you would expect from Scary Movie - combine them all an you have "The Hunters".At first the movie was interesting, then it was OK, then it started showing pointless drama, tons of convenient plot points, numerous clichés, and every point where there SHOULD be a booby trap, there isn't a single one! Well there is, but its so damn slow that even your legs were broken & you had to crawl your way out, you'd STILL make out. The bad guys were obvious, the good guys overpowered sidekicks to batman, and they made every puzzle seem so easy that "Legendary Treasure Hunter" feels self-proclaimed than earned (even though its "secret").If you hated Lara Croft, Indiana Jones & the plastic skull, and Spy Kids, then watching this will be torture. Seriously. AVOID.
