What looks like a mix of comedy and sci-fi on the surface, is really a drama in the form of a mystery. That's quite an ambitious setup, sadly, it's the drama that I never really cared for, which made it overly difficult to keep myself invested in the film. That said, the potential for greatness was there, so it's definitely worth a shot.
Linoleum keeps you guessing until the very end, still, the reveal wasn't all that grand. The performances are decent, the styling is fine (though a bit too DIY/sentimental for my taste), and the soundtrack is on point. It's just that I didn't care much for the characters or the outcome of the mystery, which was kind of the point of the film.
