...waiting for cable or on-demand won't likely affect anyone's enjoyment that much.May 11, 2017
Excels in its depiction of the Los Angeles of 2017... a fascinating cultural exposure, but lacks a truly impactful story.May 12, 2017
There's an earnestness and a fundamental truth to this familial saga-as well as an appealing, low-budget scrappiness-that consistently make it hum.May 11, 2017
It's dispiriting to watch "Lowriders" make every predictable move. It clutters an otherwise well-meaning snapshot of a vibrant community underserved by mainstream filmmaking.May 11, 2017
Mexican-American culture isn't merely draped over the story as an added element but woven throughout with a casual practicality that respects both the primary characters and their shot-on-location East L.A. setting.May 16, 2017
Lowriders exudes passion from the cast and everyone involved, and the final result is a passion project that is both poignant and socially relevant despite its many flaws.May 12, 2017
It's admirable that this film depicts a culture that's tragically under-represented on the big screen, but the movie is so overwritten and simplistic that it almost comes across as condescending.May 16, 2017
Eva Longoria gives one of her most authentic performances as the strong and loving Gloria. Ross brings a wounded intensity to his character. Chavarria's narration is a tad low key, but his performance is natural and effective.May 14, 2017
An earnest and well-acted character drama about family, conflicts, and common ground.
