Netflix: The Legacy of a Whitetail Deer Hunter

Any of you seen this on the flix yet? Add another one to the year of Brolin.

I think this is a good example of when not to trust the Rotten Tomato meter. I try not to let that ever steer my decision of watching a movie, but I am guilty of it every now and then. This was one rated in the 30's I believe, but I would not give it that rating. It's a solid flick that gets away from the repetitive gimmicks big blockbusters use. No special effects. No unrealistic maneuvers...except...SPOILER...maybe the rafting scene towards the end. But it wasn't enough to matter.

Movie is about a whitetail deer hunter who has his own tv show and wants to bond with his 12 year old son by bringing him along to find and kill his first whitetail. The kid actor was hilarious. He's a spoiled kid who wants no business in the wilderness. Only cares about his gf and his phone. He plays the spoiled kid role so well, but not to the point you want to slap him upside the head when he's acting up. He's actually pretty damn funny. Danny McBride (Kenny Powers) plays Brolin's cameraman and adds just the right amount of comedy for his character. Overall, the entire movie's delivery is serious, but has enough comedic undertones to make some laugh at loud moments.

It's a fly under the radar movie and it only lasts about an hour and 22 minutes. Perfect watch when you find yourself scrolling for 20 minutes trying to pick something.

Highly recommend for the posters who are into experimenting with under the radar movies.

I'd rank it a 6.5-7/10
