Lift, directed by F. Gary Gray and starring Kevin Hart, is a heist-comedy film on Netflix that struggles to break out of the genre's typical formula. The story revolves around master thief Cyrus (Kevin Hart) and his crew, who are tasked by Interpol to intercept $500 million worth of gold to stop a catastrophic plan by a crime boss. While the premise sets up for a high-stakes adventure, the execution is predictable and lacks originality.
The performances by the ensemble cast, including Gugu Mbatha-Raw and Jean Reno, add some charm, but their talents feel underutilized. Kevin Hart’s portrayal of Cyrus brings humor and charisma, yet the script misses opportunities to fully capitalize on his comedic strengths. The heist sequences, though visually engaging, lack the clever twists and gripping tension often associated with the genre.
Overall, Lift delivers light, forgettable entertainment, better suited for a casual Friday night. It's a decent watch for fans of heist films, but it doesn’t bring anything fresh or memorable to the table
