The movie follows the story of three different men embarking on a vital path with their deadly reality. The film embodies the life of a sniper involved in many frames, and an intelligence officer becomes the engine of a murder plot. This is in addition to the legendary warrior who abandoned the war and found himself on a strange and incomprehensible course.
The war story featuring good people making the best of a bad situation may feel very familiar, but it is a better kind of familiarity that also characterizes Hyena Road.
Gross manages to craft a feature that's horrifying and strangely inviting at the same time, delivering solid characterization to go with all the chaos.
