Low Low

Low Low is much better than the few reviews led me to believe. It is well crafted in terms of writing and production values. The casting is fantastic and the four main characters have a very gritty, realistic connection. The story line is both small and giant in it's scope - small due to the containment of the action and time frame and giant in it's transformational process. There are devastating moments and there is light and hope. As someone who knows that hitting bottom - a low low - is often the only way to claw one's way back up to a better place, this film hits the mark. Kudos to the writer/director, cast and crew!

I tried to watch it but I don't think I made it halfway. I didn't check reviews or watch the trailer before watching. That was my big mistake. Because the trailer is kind of horrible and I would never have made the mistake of wasting time on this.

It's like one of those Lifetime movies that pretend to be "ripped from the headlines". Faux social commentary at it's worst. Pretending to be about disadvantaged young women but everybody is pretty and clean and kinda fashionable. The acting is bad. Writing and direction are horrible. Costumes and set decoration are unconvincing at best. Honestly can't think of anything that was worth commending.

So my simple recommendation is this: Watch the trailer. If that doesn't make you want to hurl then there is at least a chance you will enjoy it. If you actually like the trailer then there is also a chance you will enjoy it. Maybe even a good chance.

I wish I had watched the trailer before watching this. I also wish I had that 40 or so minutes back cuz life is too short to watch 3/10 movies.

Reminded me of "American Woman" as in 90% profanity, fake sex (i.e. scenes designed to give the idea w/out exposing much), parties, alcohol in abundance of course. Females searching for love using the hooks they have, but advantage falls to the guys. Script tries to convey the importance of dedication to education, but comes across as weak.

I was blown away by the characters in this film! The intensity of the lives they lived, and the brokenness of their life circumstances was heartbreaking and raw. The complexity of life lived by those raised in addiction and poverty is overwhelming and this film beautifully captures those moments.

Literally, one of the best of its kind....

I'm not even sure what I want to say here, I often give this much thought before typing something up and posting it.... That's what's tricky about films like this.... One may get to the end and ask "what?!" and pick apart seemingly unfinished parts and be upset over unanswered questions ..... This is a film you just, have to, feel.... it's one of those, ya know? Its creators did SUCH A BEAUTIFUL job with this! Definitely feels as real as it gets! Every character delivers in that way! Gives found footage realness, in a sense... Heartbreaking and beautiful and wonderful and near perfect. Again, I say- when in reference to films of its kind.... I'm just gonna stop rambling now and end it saying- I watched the trailer afterwards (I dove right in while Prime scrolling, something I rarely do) and my heart swelled so much I felt like I'd explode with tears and emotions- sitting here staring at my phone covered in goosebumps..... and then I came here, so... Yup.
