Review of Detroit (2017) by James S — 13 Dec 2017

Kathryn Bigelow has done it again, creating what may end up being the years best film. Using a mix of both dramatized cinema and historical footage, Detroit is stunning, heartbreaking and extremely intense from start to finish (I could physically feel my blood pressure rising for almost the entire 60 minute midsection).

Superbly directed and filmed, with Oscar caliber performances throughout the young cast, Detroit is an important and socially relevant film that should absolutely not be missed.
