Lift: Roubo nas Alturas

I found it boring. Boring dialog, boring actions, felt very low budget in many ways, from camerawork to lighting to music to script to directing. Despite low action, it was shot in 24p( standard horrible way) but in a way that introduced a lot of blur) again, nice attempts at panning, but failed on editing or the proper cameras or both.

The script is pretty bland. A predictable story we've seen in TV shows and movies 100X. Some parts of the script made no sense at all. Feels like some soap opera writer who decided to create an action, but failed to fact check everything.

Felt like an episode of a tv show that ran 45minutes too long... Now, if they would've removed 45minutes of useless content there would be an ok 6.3/10 TV show.

I am appalled by the low standard unrealistic stunts, actions and plotline. I wish it could have done little more realistic plot and acting. What a waste of talents.

The movie got all the trademark of a great heist plot and yet spoiled it badly.

Making a good movie is about making a plausible technology unless its classified as a superhero or a science fiction action. Otherwise, its an enjoyable movie to kill time.

I wish there is will not be any sequel to increase my isery even more. Now I lost word to make any more comments because movie so painful to describe how i felt. I wish its not the worst movie i ever seen.

It's hard to see Kevin hart in a serious role, and here it was. But here's the thing. I actually feel he did well in this, sure his character had some usual hard manarisums but mostly he was pretty impressive. In this movie he plays Cyrus a leader of a group that like to steal paintings and we get introduced to them while in italy trying to get an nft. Cyrus old girlfriend is a Interpol agent and wants them to do the impossible. They have to steal gold from a plane so that leon the professional doesn't get it. Also on his team are. Bully Magnuson as original name Magnus his the safe expert. Usual corbelo from money heist and is a flight expert. Kim Yoon ji as hacker. Mi son and Vincent defanio as a not so good disguise expert. A good team that's made of two others also and I think this cast works and as a heist movie it was as entertaining as it needed to be and was a pretty fun watch.

If you are frequently critical of things not making sense in movies, Lift is not for you. Me personally, if I'm not enjoying a movie, I become critical of all its flaws. But if the movie is entertaining me, I can overlook a lot.

And that's exactly what happened with Lift. I won't argue about how "good" it is. But I was thoroughly entertained. It's a fun movie with charming actors playing likeable characters. The action scenes are all enjoyable. And it has a solid musical score.

Lift was a pleasant surprise. I mostly hate straight-to-streaming movies. I just came off of an abysmal one with Amazon's Role Play. Luckily this was endlessly more enjoyable.

I recognize a cheap copycat of a heist movie when I see one and this is definitely one of them. I really do like Kevin Hart (THE reason I started watching this) in other movies, but this time around even he didnt make me laugh.

The bad: Kevin Hart tries to act seriously this time around and that basically is NOT his strength at all. Bummer. But what's worse though is that ALL the other actors are TOTAL NOBODIES.

More bad: supposedly a heist movie, but the heists are completely 100% STUPID AND SILLY LOOKING. This was suppose to excite me?

This looks and feels like yet another cheaply made Netflic movie, only made to fill up another time slot. To be avoided (if one can), especially by the Kevin Hart fans, of whom I am one.
