    The footage here is unbelievable. The way it is constructed tells the story of each hunt beautifully. Each episode ends with 5-10 minutes of explaining how the footage was shot, that is equally unbelievable.

    There are times where the HBO drama-esque narrative they're imposing on the animals seems a little sketchy and forced (some is funny, though, too, like the reaction shots from bystander animals), but it barely matters, because every second of the footage is beyond stunning.

    The series doesn’t measure up to top-flight Attenborough, who is working on “Planet Earth II,” but it is mostly fascinating as well as, of course, informative.

    The Hunt is more of a high-stakes chess match, albeit one featuring spectacularly photographed athletic grace. Its preternaturally omniscient cameras document the shifting strategies employed by both predators and prey.

    The footage here is truly extraordinary and gorgeous, and, for the most part, artfully edited.
