Summary: BRILLIANT
Review: This movie would have never caught my eye if it wasn't for Tarantino. I'm a huge fan of Tarantino, but I can't honestly see what Tarantino did to make it better, except put his name on it to get people to buy this classic film. The pure acting of Scatman Crothers and Alex Rocco make this movie flow. It has a wonderful plot and dealt with racial and other real issues. I think it wasn't that big of a hit when it was first released because people just didn't want to see films like that then. Today on the other hand, as Tarantino realized, people love films such as Detroit 9000. Absolutely brilliant!

Summary: Groovy
Review: With its flawed characters, bloody shoot-outs, and strutable sound track, its easy to see how "Detroit 9000" influenced Tarantino. The relationship between the two inter-raceal cops can even be compared with Samuel Jackson and John Travolta's in" Pulp Fiction". And although it may not be high art, "Detroit 9000" is a whole lot more fun then any thing Holywood dispences out today. That theme music alone is enough to get me clapping. "Detroit 9000" is a great movie full of fun, excitment and hookers. A whole lot of hookers.
