Trophy Hunter

About This Movie

So, Trophy Hunter is a curious little gem. It's a mockumentary, which already sets it apart, and it’s crafted by the Safdie brothers—definitely worth noting. The tone is satirical but carries a weighty undertone, poking fun at the absurdity of the illegal wildlife trade. Glenn O’Brien’s performance is delightfully eccentric, and he really embodies that New York cultural flair. The pacing is fast, yet it allows moments for the viewer to digest the ridiculousness of what’s happening. The practical effects? They’re minimal but effective, underscoring the themes of obsession and exploitation without being overly graphic. Overall, it feels like a cheeky commentary wrapped in oddball humor. Not your typical wildlife documentary, that’s for sure.
