Detropia Reviews

This inefficient documentary on the sad state of Detroit makes the tried inspiration ineffective. The subject matter is no doubt interesting and I like the small glimmering amount of hope for their city.

Almost like a tone poem than a real film. A bit trippy, nicely shot ode to the end of an era in Detroit. This style does lead to a bit of a sloppy, disconnected study of the city that jumps around at seemingly random intervals.

It also features many interviews with the inhabitants of the city but fails to find any real standout personalities despite its desperate search for one. Fascinating but largely empty.
