    Bea Swanson This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.
    Keeley Coleman The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
    Yash Wade Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.
    Lela The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.
    snekvik94 This has to be one of the most "american" shows I've ever seen. It's all so staged and fake that it makes me sick. There is a whole camera crew with them all the time and it's easily to notice that this is highly edited, Many of the scenes are put in different places than when it's actually shot. And the people being chased is always speaking about life and death, like the whole camera crew is going to just let them freeze to death right in front of their eyes. The two men on the horses chasing the people don't seem to be most intelligent people either. They look more like rednecks who knows how to ride horses. Some of the conclusions they make is pretty stupid, heck, if I knew how to ride a horse myself I would have done a better job than them.This show is fake and bull crap, not even entertaining. I've watched 3-4 episodes, and it's the same all over again every time.
    torgo7 Obviously the previous reviewer is not a lover of the outdoors, beautiful scenery, horses and horseback riding etc. This show is a lot of fun and the various locations are simply breathtaking. It's entertaining to hear people brag beforehand and then either get their comeuppance or in some cases actually come out victorious.The thrill is in pitting contestants' skills against a seasoned, veteran tracker who is an excellent horseman to boot. Not every contest has to end in a "prize". This has the thrill of the chase. People interested in horses and riding can also appreciate the skill of both horse and man as they navigate some of the roughest possible terrain.To me this show is like looking back in time. Shades of the old time bounty hunters! I always look forward to new episodes or re-watching some of my favorites.
    strikecommando How anyone can give this more than one star is beyond me. I have subtitled a few episodes and all I can think of is "how did anyone ever think this was a good idea for a show?" Absolutely nothing happens, there is nothing at stake (bragging rights? Come on), every episode is the exact same. Run through the woods, almost get caught, spent the night outdoors, wake up, almost get caught, rinse, repeat. The suspense is as artificial as any episode of The Kardashians, and there just is no point to the proceedings. None whatsoever. Why would anyone care if some random folks make it to a random intersection in some random wilderness before they get caught by this guy, when there's not even anything on the line? In every episode the "prey" at some point talks about how "scary" it was then they were being chased by Mantracker and how it felt like they were "fighting for their lives." Why would anything in this show make you feel like that? If you get caught, you get caught and go home. There's no humiliation, you don't lose anything, cause there was never anything at stake in the first place. I really don't get it. I love Canadians, but they make horrible TV.
