austin's a.v. club write-up →
“With its cast of twentysomething slackers, video-store and dive-bar settings, and focus on relationship issues, writer-director Adam Bowers’ feature debut bears some surface resemblance to the greatest hits of mumblecore. There’s one major difference, however: This movie has a script, and it’s a sharp, witty, frequently laugh-out-loud funny one at that.”
college movie review... review →
“You’ve likely never heard of actor/director Adam Bowers, but I expect that to change in the coming years. The lanky 25 year-old filmmaker has created something very special with New Low: a no-budget slacker romance that actually manages to be entertaining and heartfelt.”

film yap review →
“It’s got a distinct, edgy vibe highlighted by Bowers’ own quizzical acting style and a script filled with biting humor that spares no segment of society…“New Low” is like a photo negative of the tired romantic comedy genre. 4 out of 5 Yaps.”

a quick little write-up from the florida film fest... →
“As writer, director and star of his feature debut (expanded from an earlier short), Adam Bowers makes a very good first impression as Wendell, a lanky and self-deprecating twenty-something who can’t figure out if he belongs with the abrasive Jayme Ratzer or the caring Valerie Jones. It may sound like a thuddingly easy call to make, but Bowers and the cast sell the situational...

“But Hollywood goes years, whole presidential administrations, without a decent romantic comedy coming out. Adam Bowers, the University of Florida alumnus who did New Low has buzz partly because he wrote and starred in a pretty good movie, but mostly because he has that field to himself.”

full todd konrad review on vegas outsider →
“Besides its sharp writing, another element that makes New Low fresh is the philosophical stance it takes with relationships… Additionally, Bowers and Ratzer go for the throat performance-wise by creating two characters who are both genuinely unlikable but that you come to respect and love because they pull no punches.”
