Wealthy elitists the hunt lower classes for sport in this underdeveloped attempt at a politically edgy exploitation spin on The Most Dangerous Game. Solid cast makes it watchable but script is feeble and staging not inventive enough to carry the day. Wants so desperately to be an even-handed commentary that all its sharp edges have no point.
