Claudio C @Claudio666 May 20, 2026 Original and Entertaining (12,457 – 19 May 2026 – Claudio Carvalho) In Los Angeles, the crime lord Teddy "Bear" Haynes dominates a poor area and uses ICE agent Fowler to arrest illegals for him. He uses beautiful women for prostitution and harvest organs from the others for trafficking. His adoptive daughter Kaylee is pregnant from El Monstruo, who follows the lineage of fighters and vigilantes but works as enforcer and henchman for Teddy. Kaylee biological parents are the former addicted Crystal and Dan, who own a low-budget hotel. When Dan needs a new kidney, Crystal deals with Teddy, who makes arrangements to provide one. But soon she learns that he is selling Kaylee’s kidney and she tries to call off. "Lowlife" (2017) is a violent movie divided in four segments: "Monsters", "Fiends" "Thugs" and "Criminals". The screenplay in the style of "Pulp Fiction" and the characters are sordid. But the plot is original and entertaining. My vote is seven. Title (Brazil): Not Available See more Michael J @RT80270123 Aug 15, 2024 Many reviewers say it’s like a Tarantino movie maybe because the bad guy looks like Tarantino (which I found hilarious)… but it does feel like a Tarantino movie. I liked it. It’s a low budget film but doesn’t feel that way. Storyline connects well at the end. Overall recommended See more Feb 2, 2021 Comedy? This nasty piece of sub-Tarantino crap makes Tarantino himself look like a master of philanthropy. The trope of showing us how low the scum of the earth can sink, so we can then vicariously join in their gut-spattered come-uppance was considered putrid when Bronson and Winner were peddling their Death Wish movies over 40 years ago. Tarantino gets away with the same repulsive scenario over and over because he once possessed immense promise, now squandered, and he mercilessly bullies anyone who questions his omniscience. Now his imitators can show him there are many more fathoms to explore before we hit rock bottom. It's a shame: there's talent involved here, most of it wasted, most of it doomed to remain unwitnessed by anyone without a strong stomach or who possesses a moral compass.

See more Feb 5, 2020 Some quite good story telling, although the plot is a little thin. Good idea behind the film, but could have been executed better. Still worth a watch though. See more Jan 31, 2020 Extremely entertaining mash-up of a group of eclectic and engaging lowlifes. The story jumps all over the place, giving you the perspective of each character, before finally joining together, to make a ghetto crime-story version of the Avengers. It's loads of fun.
