I struggled a bit with rating the film as the story was weak in placves and a bit too long here and there, but aside from a usually excellent Brendan Gleeson, that hawk stole the show. I think there may have been some trickery at work here and there as some captions looked so stunning, but how could these be filmed, like the hunt through the trees in that forrest, catching that rabbit in the end. But these tricks worked well, it did not bother me at all. But the scenes of the bird and its boss played by Claire Foy were eye candy for me, the eyes of the bird especially made me forget the rather slow story and so I ended up with a 2- of which most credit goes to the bird...
