Top Critics Reviews
fresh:
The goal of the movie is truth-telling rather than flag-waving, but it also succeeds as impactful storytelling.

fresh:
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.
– Kate Taylor,

rotten:
Viewers are graced with a few disappointingly subdued action scenes, two humdrum romantic subplots, and a virtual museum of bad acting.

rotten:
Gross ... is ultimately unable to satisfy the rules of dramatic engagement.

fresh:
"Hyena Road" is a skillfully filmed reminder, if one is needed, about why Afghanistan earned its status as the "graveyard of empires."
