Action auteur Kathryn Bigelow renders this sleek and stylish police thriller with almost painterly abstraction. Day one on the force, and rookie cop Megan Turner (Jamie Lee Curtis) faces suspension for shooting an allegedly unarmed man—and then the bodies start piling up, ostensibly killed with her gun. Shot through with a palpable, danger-at-every-turn sense of unease, BLUE STEEL is a fascinating blend of art-house aesthetics, psychosexual implication, and unfiltered action.
