‘Kraven The Hunter’ Review: Aaron Taylor-Johnson Shows Off Action Chops In Marvel Villain Origin Story That Plays More Like A Mob Movie
Read a review of 'Kraven the Hunter,' starring Aaron Taylor-Johnson in an action-packed, R-rater Marvel villain origin story that plays more like a mob movie.
It turns out to be a spectacular action- and character-driven performance from Aaron Taylor-Johnson and some tight exciting filmmaking from director J.C. Chandor, whose previous films, other than Triple Frontier, are far more indie in style and scope, including his Oscar-nominated Margin Call, A Most Violent Year and the more introspective Robert Redford one-hander All Is Lost. It all begins with our introduction to the young Sergei and his younger brother Dmitri (played respectively as teens by Levi Miller and Billy Barratt), who have grown up in a life of privilege but clearly have conflicts with their tough-love Russian gangster father Nikoalai Kravinoff (a fierce Russell Crowe).
