Review of Hyena (2015) by Kino_Avantgarde — 18 Nov 2022
The movie is about the immigrant gangs consisting of Turks and Albanians and drug addicted cops, taking place in England. A so-called protector of the law, in the lead role, who is losing his sense of "ethics" gradually. It is a maze with trap within trap, an event triggering the other, this time even more complex. Being 'Big John' is disappearing in every second; It becomes then blurry who is protecting the law, and even makes you forget the definition of the law, in a pretty dark atmosphere.
Nicholas Winding Refn described the movie as the future of noir genre. Les Arcs owns the prize for the best actor in Edinburgh - also has two nominations for the best British film and Sitges best film.
