In 1992, Mercer (Tyrese Gibson) is desperately trying to rebuild his life and his relationship with his son (Christopher A'mmanuel) amidst the turbulent 1992 LA uprising following the Rodney King verdict. Across town, another father and son (Ray Liotta and Scott Eastwood) put their own strained relationship to the test as they plot a dangerous heist to steal catalytic converters, which contain valuable platinum, from the factory where Mercer works. As tensions rise in Los Angeles and chaos erupts, both families reach their boiling points when they collide in this tense crime-thriller.

Better than I expected it to be, and some of the performances are quite good.

As missed opportunities go, sadly this one hit me as being fairly massive.

Vromen and Penn would have been better off writing a straightforward father-son heist flick without trying (and failing) to pull off this high-concept maneuver.

Rated: 1.5/4

While not revolutionary, 1992 offers a valuable commentary on the recent history of the United States and in the power of cinema to explore complex issues. [Full review in Spanish]

1992 has similar elements of other heists films, but Tyrese Gibson career best performance elevates the film to another level.

Rated: 6/10

If you're going to take a historical event and make that the backdrop of the film, you better paint something worthy of the canvas... [But it's] just a run-of-the-mill heist movie.
