The Hunting Ground isn't director Kirby Dick's strongest work as a filmmaker, but the movie's powerful message more than trumps any technical weaknesses.

The Hunting Ground qualifies as activist filmmaking. More power to it. You can read all the statistics you want, but there's no substitute for bearing witness - especially in such overwhelming numbers. Apr 9, 2015 | Rating: A- | Full Review…

The Hunting Ground is a clear piece of survivors' advocacy. Dick's purpose is not to be fair to both sides. But is that such a problem when no one has been fair to his subjects? Apr 3, 2015 | Rating: 3/4 | Full Review…

The Hunting Ground finds a narrative spine in the story of two rape victims: Andrea Pino and Annie E. Clark, students at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill who wound up launching their own grassroots investigation into the epidemic. Apr 2, 2015 | Rating: 3/4

It has succeeded at something far greater by letting the audience come to know all the brave women and men it gets to come forward with their stories, putting a human face on this most inhumane of crimes. Nov 15, 2018 | Full Review…

...in the moment (hey, there's nothing that says documentarians have to abide by lawful definitions of "innocent until proven guilty", I guess) there is an undeniable power to The Hunting Ground that is hard to ignore. Jan 20, 2016 | Rating: B | Full Review…

The whole thing made me fearful for my daughter and ashamed. The Hunting Ground underscores all that and brings to light the faces wronged and those looking to make it stop. Dec 21, 2015 | Rating: 3/4 | Full Review…

This was one of the most eye opening documentaries I have watched this year. Disappointing that this epidemic is happening and that it is so protected by almost everyone. Times need to change and the rich shall not prosper while others suffer because of social status. This film cut me to the core and has inspired me to start developing a project that will help raise awareness in my country. Disappointing women and men are exposed to this type of culture when universities have no reason to stop it because they are protecting their perfect image, dead set disgusting. Any person with a member going to university should see this film. 29/04/2017.

Haunting, depressing, raw, true, and overwhelmingly large in numbers, "The Hunting Ground is a masterfully crafted Documentary. Following the lives of rape victims on college campuses and diving deep into their stories, was not something I was incredibly keen on viewing, but it works. Whether or not you believe every story, because there are a few questionable cases, as a film, this is one of the most effective Documentaries you will watch about this specific subject. The biggest flaw with this film (which is also it's biggest positive), is that when the statistics for each school come up, you are in awe. They begin with percentages to scare the audience and to make them want to take a stand, but once the percentages go away, the filmmakers come up with a clever way of showing what the police of each town is "not" doing. That hurt the film slightly for me, as that is not the story for them to be focussing on, but rather what is true and can be explained. "The Hunting Ground" is a very unique title for this film and I highly recommend it to anyone college-appropriate or older. This film handles very mature material and I think it is for a specific audience. Terrific documentary.
A testament to a bunch of brave college students and film makers who expose the horrifying lack of support that colleges provide to those who have been raped on their campus. It is an epidemic that is encouraged by the lack of attention paid to the issue by morally bankrupt officials.
Despite some reported issues regarding its credibility, this is a great companion piece to The Invisible War in what concerns institutionalized misogyny and brutality against women (and in this case also men) that go shockingly ignored when the interests of powerful people are involved.
