‘Motor City’ Review: Cliché Thriller Stalls Despite TIFF Buzz
TL;DR Summary
‘Motor City’ is a stylistically ambitious but ultimately clichéd crime thriller set in 1977 Detroit, featuring Alan Ritchson in a physically commanding role. The film is notable for its dialogue-free storytelling and nostalgic '70s soundtrack, but suffers from a weak script and stereotypical characters, making it more of a flashy stunt than a compelling narrative.
