Layin' Low

About This Movie

Layin' Low is kind of a quirky gem from '96 that captures that aimless vibe of the 90s. Jerry, our down-on-his-luck protagonist, is relatable in his slacker spirit. The pacing is a bit uneven but adds to the charm; it mirrors Jerry's own confusion and lack of direction. The humor has this dry, almost absurd quality that sneaks up on you. The performances are solid, especially as Jerry navigates this bizarre turn of events after a drug deal goes south. It’s not your usual crime comedy - there’s a deeper exploration of what it means to find purpose, even if it’s through a chaotic lens. The practical effects in a couple of scenes stand out too, enhancing that gritty realism. It’s a film that lingers, like a forgotten mixtape.
