1992

1992 is a solid mini-series by Álex de la Iglesia, blending suspense and personal drama with his distinctive storytelling flair. Set in the mysterious and evocative backdrop of Seville during Expo '92, the show follows Amparo's relentless quest for answers after her husband's untimely death.

While not groundbreaking, the series keeps viewers engaged with its intriguing plot and complex characters. Fernando Valdivielso and Marian Álvarez deliver compelling performances, particularly in portraying the raw, flawed humanity of their roles. The pacing can feel uneven at times, but the unique narrative style of de la Iglesia compensates for these minor shortcomings.

Best suited for those who enjoy slow-burn mysteries with a dash of dark humor, 1992 is an enjoyable watch that highlights de la Iglesia's ability to blend the ordinary with the extraordinary.

Rating: 7/10 - A decent, stylistically rich series worth a try.

The 1992 serial didn't live up to expectations and felt below average overall.

The story started off okay but was stretched out across too many episodes. Instead of keeping things exciting, the plot felt slow, and the thrilling climax didn't come until the last episode. By then, it didn't have the impact it should have.

The series dragged on unnecessarily, with some episodes feeling like filler. The story moved very slowly, which made it harder to stay interested.

The acting didn't do justice to the story. The performances were not very strong, and the actors didn't make the characters feel real or exciting. This made it hard to connect with the story.

Overall, the 1992 serial was a letdown. It's a below-average series with slow pacing, weak acting, and a disappointing ending. If you're looking for a thrilling series, this one may not be the best choice.

So bad an.d confusing. The acting is poor and the plot is unclear. There are so many random scenes that could easily had been left out. It's like they didn't had a script. The main characters walks from one wierd situation to and other. The story could easily have been told in 3 episodes instead of 6 and could even have been a decent story. Thecstiry telling is so inconsistent and unrealistic to the extreme. Sometimes it's like watching a really bad comedy and giving the story it's just bad taste. Again it's is so random but luckily one of the main characters gives the other main character an occasional recap and guess what, it's still random.

What to watch when you want to watch something but don't know what to watch?

Not to bad, not to good.

A little exaggerated sometimes, with some shades of sci-fi.

Don't play it when your are eager for something that would keep you in front of tv.

I don't agree with people saying it's bad acting. Actors are quite good and they make a realy good work as a team.

The story is good and as I said, if some details hadn't been exaggerated sometimes and it had been made a little more realistic, it would have been a 9/10 movie or maybe more.

The fact that it's in Spanish relaxed me, because I'm a bit bored with English-language movies.

If you have nothing better to watch, grab something to nibble on, a few beers, and hit play.

A raging alcoholic ex-cop and a strident widow team up to get to the bottom of a murderous mystery that somehow involves the 1992 Seville Expo and its official mascot, Curro. The show isn't without its flaws but it's enjoyable thanks to its combination of darkness and quirky humor, its unconventional structure and some decent performances. The series is strangely effective - and affecting - in its portrayal of addiction. It's less successful in its attempts to say something profound about government corruption and official abuses of power, which come off as hammy and overdone. Overall it's an imperfect but engaging series.
