The Hunting Party (2007)

THE HUNTING PARTY (seen on 4-2-2009) - a Netflix movie
Dir.Richard Shepard
**Richard Gere and Terrence Howard (the black actor)
Five years after the Bosnian war, a discredited ace journalist Simon Hunt convinces his successful old friend Duck to join him in the rather improbable venture of hunting down a notorious war criminal (guilty of eliminating thousands of Muslims in Bosnia in what is known as ethnic cleansing) carrying a reward of five million. Hunt gets personally involved in this dangerous venture because his Muslim beloved was brutally murdered by Fox, the wanted war criminal. Along the way he is shocked to find that the international community--the NATO, the UN, and the CIA itself who have brokered peace in Bosnia--aren't interested in catching Fox although they have put a hefty reward on his head; in fact, they even protect the dreaded war criminal from being caught. So when Hunt miraculously succeeds (after many a brush with death) in catching Fox, he decides to bring the dreaded criminal into the midst of the Muslim Bosnia and leave him there to be punished there by the mobs.
The imaginative title plays upon the ironies of situation with both its words--'hunting' and 'party', what with the weak helpless journalist Hunt setting out on an impossible mission while the CIA, the UN, NATO stationed in Bosnia, with the best of resources at its command hypocritically sit ducks pretending to do something they are not doing. Is it a 'party' they were having!!
