What to Know

Critics Consensus

Lift may be a passable streaming option for viewers seeking mindless entertainment, but that doesn't excuse its thinly written characters or formulaic, haphazardly written story.

Audience Says

The secret to enjoying Lift is going in with low expectations -- but even then, there are plenty of better alternatives.

It's another disappointing action movie from Netflix, which has a very spotty record in this space. Go to Full Review

Any film that begins with an elaborate, broad daylight heist deserves viewers' attention. It's what comes between that intro and the film's adrenalin-pumping final hour that may give Netflix audiences reasons to take a refrigerator break. Go to Full Review

Despite its sizable budget and the appeal of its cast, [Lift] quickly fades into the vast landscape of heist cinema. [Full Review in Spanish] Go to Full Review

Lift disputes the case that nobody cares about art until it’s stolen. For a Netflix title, there is an irony when it comes to creative works being canceled or halted, thus being taken away from the hands of the public. Go to Full Review

3.5/5
Overall, Lift is a fun film with beautiful scenery, but you probably won’t get any frequent flyer miles or first-class upgrades out of any rewatches. Enjoy the smooth air and give the movie a try. Go to Full Review

Shilo Y @Shilo Nov 6 The way how they figure out there plan is slow at first. But once they finally make there move, that’s when things get intense. See more thiago s @Thiagostone Sep 16 Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom See more Jun 19 Started out entertaining enough and then went fake beyond belief = stupid. Was there some Marvel aircraft idea rejects or what? See more Ben P Jun 11 Like the NFTs that Kevin Hart is pushing, F. Gary Gray’s latest project, Lift, is a complete scam of a movie and just continues Netflix’s trajectory of over-budgeted action thrillers with no personality and zero rewatchability. Red Notice and The Gray Man have set the standard, and Lift has come in and lowered the ante. Full review on my Substack: https://benpatten.substack.com/ See more robert M May 8 Most people hate this movie because of the fact that only the first part/ some 20minutes in the middle/ and end are "good" but i think it deserves a better score, top 3 heist movies i ever watched(not even a big heist movie fan) See more Amelia A Apr 21 Mediocre flick. Glossy at a first glance, but tries too hard to sound smart while delivering a really subpar, formulaic plot. No thrills to be had here. The heist in itself is embarrassingly dumb. Despite a couple of cute characters in the crew, the movie is a forgettable affair, that lacks the wit, the charisma and the inventiveness necessary to the genre. Charmless. See more Read all reviews
