AutCuddly Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,

Brendon Jones It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

Bessie Smyth Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.

Walter Sloane Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.

851222 Greetings from Lithuania."Detroit" (2017) is a very good movie from start till finish. It is superbly acted, directed and written true story. The great duet Kathryn Bigelow and Mark Boal teamed up again after two masterful and one of the most two memorable movies of the past decade "The Hurt Locker" and "Zero Dark Thirty". While "Detroit" is not in the same league as two above mentioned titles, yet their collaboration is clearly visible in every scene.Overall, "Detroit" a gritty, intense and very involving thriller based on a very true story. A very solid movie all around.

Leofwine_draca DETROIT is another mildly disappointing movie from director Kathryn Bigelow, much the same as ZERO DARK THIRTY. These films share a complex backdrop and a rather simplistic and straightforward main story which is unable to support their bloated running time. They're not a part on THE HURT LOCKER. This film is taut with suspense in the scene involving the cops and the black guys in the hotel foyer, but the rest is merely dragged out. We don't need an hour or more of back story before the main incident takes place. The script is middling and fails to make any of the characters on either side very distinctive, and the emphasis in the advertising given to John Bogeya's superficial and minor role is a surprise. The black characters are sympathetic but they're given very little to work with other than to be victimised, although the actors including Anthony Mackie are fine. Hannah Murray has more to work with as a prostitute caught up in the incident, but the real stand-out is the excellent Will Poulter as the racist cop. His is one of the performances of the year, and a pity the rest of the film can't match.

jtncsmistad I was a child during the hell on earth Detroit summer of 1967. I don't remember it. Acclaimed Director Kathryn Bigelow has done one helluva job recreating the powder keg that exploded over a half century ago in the based-on-actual-events drama "Detroit". It is profoundly difficult to process that a human being could be as recklessly racist as these rogue cops are. Will Poulter is particularly chilling as the brazen ring leader. That these white officers of the law could treat mostly black suspects as lives that scarcely matter is sickening. Yet, as the disturbing courtroom scenes reveal toward the end of the film, how do we know?

jeff-2051 As much evil as any horror film. The only difference is that these are "normal" humans. That's what makes it so horrific. Not a film I'd ever watch again, but I'm glad I did.
