Leave your thoughts about Detroit.
| Movie NetworkJorge Rivera RubioA hard reminder of how vulnerable we are against the immense power that the system has over us. [Full review in Spanish] |
| Rendy ReviewsRendy JonesA provocative period drama that's not only captivating but eye opening with a tragically accurate yet profound statement about police criminality and social injustice. |
| Time OutJoshua RothkopfTo watch Bigelow’s expertly calibrated chaos during the riots’ escalation – nothing short of block-by-block guerilla warfare – is to witness something depressingly familiar to anyone who has seen the videos of today’s police brutality, of violently botched arrests and furious community responses, and worried that it would never get better. |
| NewsweekAlexander NazaryanWhat's missing from Bigelow's film is not sensitivity but nuance. Her characters never come alive, moving through the film less as people than entries in a sociology textbook. |
| Mark Reviews MoviesMark Dujsik[A]ll of it becomes a harsh reminder that, even though we may learn from the past, we still seem doomed to repeat it. |
| Washington PostAnn HornadayDetroit is an audacious, nervy work of art, but it also commemorates history, memorializes the dead and invites reflection on the part of the living. In scale, scope and the space it offers for a long-awaited moral reckoning, it’s nothing less than monumental. |

| Toledo BladeKirk BairdDetroit is an important and thoughtful history reminder. And in these times of Black Lives Matter and videos of police killing black men, it feels sadly prescient. |
| Daily Express (UK)Allan HunterDetroit tells such a powerful, visceral tale that it demands to be seen and discussed. |
| iNews.co.ukMatthew TurnerDelivers a visceral punch to the gut that will leave you shaking with anger and frustration. |
