California Sober

About This Movie

California Sober is this laid-back comedy that has a certain charm, you know? It revolves around these two slackers, Lola and Tyler, who are stuck in a mall makeup store. The humor is pretty relaxed, reflecting the aimlessness of the characters. The plot kicks in when they have to dodge drug tests due to new management. There’s something almost nostalgic about its approach to contemporary issues like workplace policies and personal choices, all wrapped in a lighthearted package. The performances feel genuine, like you're hanging out with friends. It’s not groundbreaking, but it captures that slacker vibe in a fun way, making it distinctively its own thing.

California Sober hasn't seen a wide release, so it’s not easy to find on mainstream platforms, which adds a layer of intrigue for collectors. The film’s tone and casual pacing make it stand out in the comedy genre, almost like a hidden gem. There’s a certain niche appeal here, especially among those who appreciate the early 2000s slacker culture. As for formats, it seems to be mostly available in digital, but I wouldn't be surprised to see some indie label pick it up for physical release in the future.
