However, his pursuit of justice often lands him in questionable territory.
He’s resolute, yes, but his decisions occasionally toe the line between righteousness and obsession.

But hes so much more asNight Hunterdoesnt shy away from showing what made him so broken.
While hes done some deplorable things, its revealed that hes been puppeteered by his father for years.
His actions stem from years of abuse, making him both a predator and a victim.
A tale of broken dreams and lost identities is one of the most acclaimed films in recent history.
It would be a crime not to mention Ben Kingsleys Cooper who adds an extra layer of ambiguity.
The scariest part is realizing just how little anyone actually has.
But despite all that, he spends most of the movie reacting to actions beyond his control.
Hes constantly chasing leads that blow up in his face sometimes literally.
Then theres the killer, Simon, whos pretty much taken into custody quite early on in the film.
But they are not left out when the chaos comes raining down.
At the end of it all, Rachel, the profiler, arguably has the most thoughtful approach.
She tries her best to understand Simon instead of overpower him.
By the time anyone starts listening to her, its way too late.
So who really has control?
Perhaps the point is that no one does.
However, his performance inNight Hunterreveals a side of him that most audiences were unfamiliar with.
He takes on the much darker, introspective role of someone grappling with psychological turmoil.
In this thriller, Cavill isnt the hero saving the world, hes simply human.
Hes grappling with the exhaustion ofchasing justiceand the fear of failing.
