There are mysterious legends about the "Huangwei Hunters" among the people in the Northeast. They have lived in the mountains for generations and guarded the emperor's vitality movement in Xing'anling, a land of Longxing. It is said that in addition to being proficient in hunting, hunters also know the art of exorcising ghosts and gods. In a remote mountain village in the northeast, a massacre occurred quietly. At the plea of ​​the villagers, Liu Er Ye, the last generation of Huangwei hunter, decided to go out and investigate the truth. He didn’t want strange things to happen repeatedly in the process, Lao Linzi. The secrets inside have also been gradually revealed. (Source: Google Translate Douban) Edit Translation

This is actually a well done and fun movie telling a few “urban legend” type of stories, linked by the main character - the hunter from the title. Everything kind of adds up by the end.

The mentor-mentee relationship between the two main characters was natural and fun to watch. While it was never the focus of the movie, it gradually and realistically built the trust and care the two had for each other.

The separate stories were interesting, but the background linking plot sadly was underdeveloped. Sure, by the end you get it all and the motivations of the villain are explained, but for me, not enough detail was put into crafting his backstory and presenting him as an interesting figure.

Production wise, it's honestly hard to describe. It masterfully mixed beautiful shots and sceneries with mediocre CGI - a rollercoaster of aesthetics. Acting was great. Not surprisingly, I liked Shang Tie Long's performance the best. I do have one complaint though, which I usually have with Chinese movies and shows. The generic white actor with awfully done dubbing - why? Why do we always have to have them?

Overall, surprisingly fun. I went into it thinking it would be a C class supernatural horror with all the aspects below average quality at best, but received a rather enjoyable 1 hour and 20+ minutes ride.
