Mel Gibson’s Hunting Season is dominating on Prime Video
Hunting Season now occupies the top spot on Prime Video movie charts, according to FlixPatrol.

RJ Collins directed Hunting Season based on a screenplay by Adam Hampton. Gibson plays Bowdrie “Bow,” a man living a remote life in the Oklahoma wilderness with his daughter, Sofia Hublitz’s Tag. After Bow and Tag rescue a mysterious, injured woman from a river, they find themselves in the crosshairs of “a deadly web of violence and revenge,” which forces them “to confront a brutal criminal to survive.” The cast also includes Shelley Hennig as January, Jordi Mollà as Alejandro, and Scarlet Rose Stallone as Lizzie.
Hunting Season debuted in US theaters on December 5, 2025, and currently has a 53% approval rating on the review-aggregating site Rotten Tomatoes, denoting mixed responses from critics. Julian Roman of MovieWeb was one of the critics who gave the film a positive review.
“Those looking for gotcha moments, big reveals, or wanton carnage will be disappointed in this simple but effective action thriller,” Roman shared. “Hunting Season never deviates from its path: This is a story about a compassionate father and daughter who can kick major ass when needed. They’re likable from the start, and this reviewer wouldn’t mind a sequel.”
