Like many others, I saw this movie on a pay channel, and like many others, I really enjoyed it. The movie has breathtaking scenery and surprisingly good acting. If you want to see a good, enthralling, entertaining, survival movie watch this.

but who and why? She has to find out who is doing this. Great movie.

I saw this movie a while ago on HBO. It had one of the best plots ever. The hunter becomes the hunted. Justice, and Revenge, and a beautiful ending. Wish it would come out on DVD or cheaper on VHS. If you have the chance get this movie. Highly recommended.

If you enjoy hunting this movie will knock your socks off. The hunter becomes the hunted. Five stars for Madchen Amick.

This is short and sweet, this movie is a must see. The everything in the movie's near perfect, and I mean everything. Watch it, you won't regret it, unless your some highly addicted religious freak who shouldn't be watching tv anyways.

I happened to catch this movie on TV and was so glad to see it is available on video,

To me, it as near perfect as a movie can be. The acting is tremendous,the scenery and photograhpy is gorgeous, and the suspense is unrelenting.

It is quite unpredictable, and I thought might have ended with both hunter/hunted dying together, but thankfully it didn't.

Canada is known for its superior film making and that is certainly true here.

I saw this movie years ago and I just purchased it on vhs to watch again. It is indeed the great movie I remember. I wish it was available on dvd as my vhs player is on its last legs and I don't plan on buying another. Will probably sell it and hope that someday it will be re-released on dvd.

Would recommend for the action packed movie lovers. It is thrilling frome beginning to end.

The story is one that's been told before but this time a strong woman is placed in the lead role. Madchen Amick portrays the lead, Julie, very well but has done so in another film with similar storyline (Hunted). Graham Greene is excellent as usual, in the role of a police officer who tries to help her catch the poucher who killed her fiancee early in the film. The poucher is portrayed excellently by Adrian Pasdar (of the TV series' Profit, Feds and films Pompatus of Love, Torn Apart, Vital Signs). The acting is of highest caliber and would not work without Pasdar as the villain because he plays it so very well. The photography is excellent and could stand on its own merits. (This could be a wonderful travel video.) The photography, lighting, action work so well together, hand-in-hand, in the wooded scenes where it is necessary to understand the nature of hunting and being hunted, in that setting. The editing is fast-paced when necessary and slower when necessary -- excellently done. The music is sometimes native american, sometimes peruvian and sometimes contemporary and helps to set the mood and move the story along. The setting of the flea-bag hotel, comes alive so you can feel the fleas on your body it is so well photographed, edited and acted. No one portrays a better villain than Pasdar, with his rough good looks, sculptured body, dark eyes, excellent use of his deep voice to sound menacing. The ending is a "tease" to both the audience and the lead character. Well teased by Pasdar. Bravo.

Sad to say, but this is far from as good a movie that the other reviews give the impression it is. Basically the story revolves around Julie, a female federal agent, who was part of a team tracking a bear poacher. They get wiped out, and only Julie survives because a biological quirk. The bulk of the movie deals with her psycological recovery, and slow build up to the final confrontation between Julie and the poacher. Unfortunately, the movie is almost devoid of suspense--it's just to predictable: especially the ending--and is marred by a poor screenplay. Only Graham Greene saves the movie from being a total disaster, but due to circumstances way beyond his control, even his performance isn't all that great. You'd have to be insane to buy this movie new at $65.
