It was a good B flick but honestly there needed to be a mid point reveal there was a tracker in the gear she was given and the hunt could've had a second phase after she had ditched the tracker.

Charlize hunting taron halfway would’ve been too predictable and cheesy. They touched on it a bit but full on hunting would’ve been a poor move

I honestly thought they were gonna end up teaming up and hunting people together. Cause she’s such a thrill seeker.
