Hunting Grounds

Movie 2025 89 min MA 15+ Action, Thriller
AMU 16+ * Quality ★★★☆☆

Our take

Hunting Grounds follows a mother fleeing her mafia-tied husband and finding shelter that turns dangerous. Expect gun violence, strong profanity, and crime dread. Action-thriller tone for older teens and adults

Story (may spoil tone)

Desperate to find refuge for her children, Chloe Marvino runs away from her Mafia tied husband, and finds shelter in a cabin with a recluse drifter named Jake. But as her husband's henchmen draw closer to her, it turns out that Jake is the biggest enemy of them all.

Talk after watching

  • Protecting children drives the escape. What choices would you make under threat?
  • Safe houses can hide new dangers. How does the film twist refuge?
  • Crime family loyalty becomes a trap. When does leaving cost everything?
