The life of Dodge Maynard, a smart and courageous man, who after the death of his pregnant wife struggles against dealing with life, has been turned upside down, when he takes part in a deadly game, where he is the prey and fights for his life.
It's completely watchable and the structure sometimes feels episodically effective, but it takes way too long for anybody to start actually hunting a Hemsworth.
Most Dangerous Game relocates the action from a remote island to all of Detroit, though there's not even a little of said action in the first four chapters, which overly belabor our hero's woe-is-me backstory.
Imagine a Lifetime Movie Network adaptation of Richard Connell's classic short story The Most Dangerous Game - about rich folks who hunt people for sport - and you have this cheesy, weirdly compelling action thriller.
I will give a shot to just about anything Waltz is in, including this story in which he plays a rich weirdo who pays Hemsworth to go forth and be hunted for sport.
