Good policing doesn't necessarily mean doing everything by the book. But as the business of crime in London turns to favour the Albanians and Turks, how does a "good" policeman survive?

Grotesquely violent corrupt cop borderline horror film. Basically no sympathetic characters and almost everyone gets what they deserve..or do they?

No one, alive on this godforsaken earth, nor dead and buried in the cold hard ground, needed that whole rape scene come the fuck on

Gritty and brutal story of a corrupt police officer and his drug taking unit on the dirty streets of London.

Quite an average movie, typical of its genre with glorified abuse of power within the force, Eastern European drug/ people traffickers and plenty of alcohol, drugs and violence.

The film picks up when Stephen Graham turns up but he is only a supporting actor so not on screen as much as one would like.

The tension and the ever increasing downward spiral of events building up with the lead actors actions vanishes in an I nstant with the peculiar and dissatisfying end and one can only wonder in amazement at what the director was thinking.

If you are looking for a quick film to watch without wanting to use your brain then Hyena could be for you but there is nothing new on offer here and it doesn't really do much for the respect of the state of British cinema.
