Lift (I) (2024)
6/10
Fun imitation of a heist film.
12 January 2024
Not great but fun. Decenct enough but I thought the film struggled til the 3rd Act. The connecting scenes could have used better hooks. It terms of the genres it borrows from it's the shallow end of the pool. But splashing in the shallow end can be fun too. Gugu Mbatha-Raw (so in love with her now) has the only interesting character arc and she carries it well as she's fun to watch. But the shallow end of the pool prevents her role from being great. Script could have used another pass to elevate it, so the actors could've had some real juicy roles to bite onto, but we're in the shallow end of the pool so there you go.
