It's a remarkable commentary on overlapping media, and an immersive history of the moment.

San Francisco Chronicle

An immersive, you-are-there experience that is as dramatic (or more so) as any Hollywood feature film.

Rated: 4/4

Flavorwire

The results are visceral, scary, and infuriating all over again, a true miscarriage of justice that turned into a civil uprising that asked more questions than it answered.

A telling chronicle of rage - and a reflection of the rage felt now.

Common Sense Media

The images in this documentary -- which consists entirely of archival footage -- are powerful and heartbreaking. And while there's no denying their impact, contemporary commentary or historical context would have been an invaluable addition.

Rated: 4/5

The events of the LA riots are shown using only file footage. Heartbreaking and raw.

That's a gut punch. So much more to the story beyond the King video and a childhood memory of some fires.

Great footage of the era but the message, if there is one, is lost or very understated. There is value in watching all of this documentary footage in one place. I was particularly struck by the elevated position that Rodney King himself took in appealing to the riders to stop looting. This is a clear sign of what happens when a huge number of people are discriminated against and disenfranchised.
