Review of Boiling Point (1993) by Hal Hinson for Washington Post — 21 Dec 1999
A lot of what Bigelow puts up on the screen bypasses the brain altogether, plugging directly into our viscera, our gut. The surfing scenes in particular are majestically powerful, even awe-inspiring. Bigelow's picture is a feast for the eyes, but we watch movies with more than our eyes.
She seduces us, then asks us to be bimbos.
