Movie Reviews of Lift
Movie Review: WOW...
Summary: 5 Stars
This one is like watching a home video of someone you know personally. Although I don't agree with (or condone) much of what Niecy does, I can most definitely understand her making the decisions she made. Just watching the relationship between her and her mother made things easier to relate to.
Often times, it's the very same people that hold you to unobtainable standards, that push you to do emorale and/or illegal things in the first place. It's the unspoken words that sometimes hold the heaviest weight.
Without giving away any plot destroying information, I would like to say that this film proves that there are those out there on the wrong path that can, and will be able to turn their lives around for the better...
As always, Kerry Washington gives a brilliant performance.
I highly recommend this film...
Summary of Lift
Lift is the story of an intelligent, young, African-American woman who works at an upscale department store, but sidelines as one of Boston?s most accomplished "boosters" or shoplifters. This stylish drama illustrates the effects that materialism has on a dysfunctional black family and was awarded the Grand Jury Prize at the 2001 Urbanworld Festival, nominated for two 2002 Independent Spirit Awards, and received critical acclaim at the 2001 Sundance Film Festival.
