How are you going to hate on the movie, it wasn't THAT bad. It's a B movie, but honestly, the acting is pretty good and I enjoyed the storyline. If you had some big named actors do that story and you had a more expensive production, this movie would have killed at the box office. You need to take it for what it is, a pretty good B movie, with some unknown but pretty good actors. It is a good watch if you are bored and want to watch a thriller/action/comedy, I would check this out. 6.1

Wow, this movie was really great. I came in expecting a fun violent romp (which I received) but it was so much more than that. I really felt for all the characters and they all had wonderful story arcs. Great use of parallel story telling too! A true gem!

Back in the 90's every movie wanted to be PULP FICTION, that trend has died down (even Tarantino makes stuff that is beyond his sophomore feature by now) but in this day and age a film like LOWLIFE comes along and becomes a true descendant of that film by taking the madness of the times and using it as its backdrop. Matter of fact, LOWLIFE makes PULP FICTION seem quaint simply by being a product of the current decade. This is a violent crime film with a capital V and it's also delightfully mad, and yet it doesn't seem unrealistic at all; we live in the Trump era, reality packed its bags long ago and now we are left in a bizarre world similar to the one painted in this film. A world filled with vicious ICE agents raiding motels full of illegal immigrants who are in turn harvested for their organs and enslaved in sex dungeons, a world of Legendary Mexican Luchador who have lost their noble way, a world of people in need of health-care who have to turn to organ traffickers for a chance at salvation and a world where reformed Neo-Nazis get triggered when suggesting they are racist and are woke as F. LOWLIFE is also hilarious in the most pitch black of ways. This is comedy that will make you feel guilty for laughing at stuff that would ignite a Twitter war. Its intersecting L.A. crime stories provide a variety of crime tales that make the film an entertaining ride of depravity and violence, not without making social commentary along the way which keeps it from being gratuitous. Each character is provided with so much personality that they could all have their own spin-off, which is the key to these type of fragmented time-line crime films. Director Ryan Prows transcends the Tarantino homage and makes a film that announces his arrival to the film world as a creative force and we should keep an eye on him. He shoots the film with 90's era David Fincher grunge that dips the film into a dark pit of fun nastiness. It's a dirty, depraved affair that will make you want to take a shower, but that dirt won't wash away because this film will stay with you for a long time. It's that good. In the following years movies will try to comment on the Trump era, those movies will try to be LOWLIFE. Review By Enrrico Wood Lagonigro - Senior Curator Oaxaca FilmFest.

This film had a Mexican film flavor to it - low cost production, everyday people, gang mentality, a little over-the-top killing. Dialogue, especially by the Nazi tatted ex-con, was believably hilariously raw. Character El Monstruo was great, although not a particularly challenging role. A negative was a not coherently edited, jumping around too much, storyline.

You want Crooked Ice Agents, Organ Donor Mob Bosses, Luchador enforcers and a story line that intersects more then an a Los Angeles Highway then you're in the right place. Forget all the haters, this film is some powerful S%$T!

I was so impatient to sit through the whole movie. The underworld boss should just contact the Communist China government and sign a Fair Trade or Square Trade agreement to ask them to supply human organs on a regular basis. It's a public knowledge that this particular government is harvesting human organs not just from the dying patients but even from healthy alive people once they are arrested, condemned and imprisoned. Kidneys, livers....whatever, no problem. : )

One of the best movies I've ever seen. In my 30 years of life I have never left a review for anything, not a restaurant, no product, not anything, but I felt obligated to leave a 10 star review for this film. Absolutely amazing. Bravo

If you watch this and it feels like a comic book, with different parts and different heroes, all telling their own story ... well that was the intention of the filmmakers, so you are not far off with that feeling. It may feel messy because of that at times, but it does work overall in being gritty and down and dirty. There is one scene that got to me (and probably others) more than others in a bad way. But not because of anything the filmmakers, the actors or anyone else did. This was playing at Frightfest, which was just shortly after the Charlottesville "incident" (terrorist attack). So in the movie there is a particular line about Nazis ... and when that sentence was spoken out, I had to cringe ... loud! You wouldn't think this is something that would touch a nerve with people. It was meant as a joke, but also as truth ... but in regards to comments and statements made by a person who should be uniting people instead of dividing them ... Well let's leave it at that. Maybe when you watch it, this won't play a role at all, maybe you'll think at that particular moment back on what happened and how crazy it is ... whatever the case, the movie is absolutely good and should not be judged in a bad light because this other individual who pretend plays to be in charge ...

7+ in the genre. a bit of exploitation 70s flavor,spanish,black, and nazilol Some parts slightly long. some interesting characters. cartoonish violence. low budget for real. dont expect many sets or scenes. overall decent .
