Missed opportunity for a decent drama about redemption but has a heist in it so, well idk??
Tyrese is gangster just released from prison and working in a metal shop while raising his teenage son. At first, I thought maybe this could work. The first act set against the back drop of the riots in 92 LA. This would have been an interesting story if that's the way it went.
Now on another side of town there are some father/son criminals with family issues of their own. The heist aspect wasn't needed for what was beginning to be a good movie. Still, there has to be some kind of way to incorporate that in this film. Everything is set against the backdrop of the 1992 LA riots.
While I recommend it, I still feel disappointed because this could have been something special for Tyrese instead of another cliche heist movie.
