Hyena

About This Movie

Hyena is a gritty dive into the murky waters of London’s crime scene. Gerard Johnson crafts a world where the lines between right and wrong blur, and our lead, a rather flawed but compelling cop, navigates this treacherous landscape. The atmosphere is thick with tension, and the pacing is relentless, keeping you on edge. The film explores themes of morality and survival in a city where the traditional rules of policing seem almost obsolete. The performances stand out, with the lead offering a raw portrayal of desperation and moral ambiguity. There are some striking practical effects that add to the grim realism, making it feel all the more visceral. It's not your typical cop drama; it’s darker, grittier, and very much its own beast.
