Weakly disordered superconducting films can be driven into an anomalous low temperature resistive state upon applying a magnetic field. Recent experiments on weakly disordered amorphous InO$_x$ have established that both the Hall resistivity and the frequency of a cyclotron-like resonance in the anomalous metal are highly suppressed relative to the values expected for a conventional metal. We show that both of these observations can be understood from the flux flow dynamics of vortices in a superconductor with significant vortex pinning. Results for flux flow transport are obtained using a systematic hydrodynamic expansion, controlled by the diluteness of mobile vortices at low temperatures. Hydrodynamic transport coefficients are related to microscopics through Kubo formulae for the longitudinal and Hall vortex conductivities, as well as a `vorto-electric' conductivity.
