Movie ReviewsWOW... MOMMIE4LYFE | San Diego, CA | 02/27/2007 (5 out of 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..." Love, theft, and the choices that make or break a life. Akanani | Lynn, MA United States | 02/16/2004 (5 out of 5 stars) "Just like life, every character in this movie has flaws... including the intelligent and clean-cut main character who's shoplifting big-ticket items even though she has a nice job. Her mother requests an expensive necklace, which will require a jewelry store heist to acquire. She decides to go ahead with the robbery, although her boyfriend begs her not to do it. To complicate things, she then learns that she is pregnant. Is she willing to risk everything to please her selfish mother? This movie gets into the psyche of each character, which is really the reason I loved watching it. It's not about stealing as much as it is about family, forgiveness and love." Insightful Indie Film: Pattern Behavior inspiring new Patter Aphraomega | Michigan | 05/09/2009 (5 out of 5 stars) ""Lift" is a great film addressing organized urban crime. The more significant message, however, is the depiction of inter-generational patterned behavior. Kerry Washington and Lonette Mckee shine as mother and daughter each acting out of their own individual emotional turmoil.The interaction is remarkably true to life. Director Demane Davis brings inter-generational issues to the surface and forces viewers to face behaviors most people would rather hide in their closets. Watch it!"
