The Hunted - who'll be standing on line?

Having trained with both Chris and Mike Sayoc in Orlando Fl. I can say that their system is a streight forward no nonsense killing art. The 9-point templet is direct and lethal. Not for wounding or slowing a person just killing as fast as posible. If you find yourself in a position where you need the fastest way to put down a person or persons this is it.

I will be at the movie on opening day with my Para-Ord. companion 45 with my Microtech Socom Eleite Auto with tanto blade and my Cutters Knife & Tool Brend manual and maybe my new Gerber YARRI I just recieved.
 
Last night was a showing of The Making of The HUNTED on Showtime. 'Sayoc Kali'_ is prominently featured and also a sound byte from_ Tuhon Tom Kier. It will be rerun several times this month.

Tommy Lee Jones graciously mentioned training in SAYOC KALI and the efficiency of real knife engagements most likely lasting 5 to 10 seconds.

Director William Friedkin described the Sayoc Kali / Filipino Blade arts akin to a ferocious Wolverine attacking at very close quarters.

Tonight is the Hollywood Premiere!

Since it's beyond my comprehension why anyone would stand in line for virtually any movie which, experience shows, has a 99% chance of being a disappointment, after all the hype, I will not be carrying any knives. In about 4 years, when I rent it at the grocery store for a buck, I will probably have a Bowie knife of some kind in my lap while watching it.:yawn: :D

(Last movie seen at a theater "Scarface" With Pacino. 1984 or so. Pretty good actually.)
 
I saw The Hunted on a small movie festival 1½ weeks ago. Out of the seven movies I saw, this was the newest and biggest. Based on the trailer, the advertising and the actors I expected the movie to be one of the best this year. It also proved to be the one on the festival I liked the least.

True, the fight scenes were brutal and messy like they should be, but the script was bad. Very much so. There were good elements in the movie, I think the camera work and sound were especially good, but it's hard to appreciate details like that if the movie doesn't work as a whole.

2+/5 on my scale. I might see it again (mainly for the fight scenes) if I didn't have to pay for it.
For comparison, I'd rank First Blood 4+/5. If you just want to see edged weapon fights, I recommend Bang Rajan which is also a very good movie.

Heard BR was a very good war film- Thai Style! I think this is closer to the Braveheart genre as far as a historically themed film.
Unfortunately it came and went- looking forward to it on DVD.
