Review of Detroit (2017) by Jess_Hill — 10 Nov 2017
A poignant and timely examination of the events leading up to the harrowing night at the Algiers Hotel in Detroit during the riots, this is a powerful film that underscores issues around race, police brutality, and civil rights that are still painfully prescient.
The performances are exceptional, but the pacing is sluggish at times, and this hampers the experience overall. With superb cinematography and an excellent soundtrack, this is a compelling film well worth your time.
7.
