Review of Linoleum

Linoleum (2022)
10/10
Jim Gaffigan and Colin West Deliver Something Original
14 July 2023
In a Jim Gaffigan movie, having seen his standup comedy, you would expect him to play a goofy dad in a goofy job, living in a suburban neighborhood with several kids. Right? Well, that's exactly how this movie starts. But then, you have one disturbing element after another that goes unexplained. Jim's character and the audience seem to be the only ones concerned with all the strangeness. And it turns out that the goofy dad story wasn't really the story after all.

You know how, when you're dreaming, things get all mixed up? Like, "Why is my childhood friend dripping ice cream on my new dream car?" This movie is kinda like that. (But it's not a dream sequence.)

This is one of the best movies I've seen all year. Totally original.
