Bigelow has the artistry to, in every one of her films, put us in dangerous immersive situations. Her paradox is that we never really care. Even while my heart is pounding (think that incredible opening scene in Hurt Locker), I feel uninvolved. I've watched 50 minutes of Detroit. I've loved every minute. Gorgeous cinematography, gorgeous editing, gorgeous acting, a master class in filmmaking. But I don't care enough to go further. I want real caring. I'll have to go elsewhere. But hey, if you're in film school? This is some frame-by-frame genius!
