Kevin Hart stars in "Lift," a lackluster heist movie on Netflix that fails to deliver on its promise of a globe-trotting caper flick. Despite a few jokes, the film falls short in both humor and drama, with uninspiring romantic chemistry and a lackluster plot. The movie, which steals one hour and 44 minutes of time, ultimately disappoints as it fails to live up to its potential.
In F. Gary Gray's Netflix film "Lift," Kevin Hart plays Cyrus, the leader of a group of tech-savvy thieves aiming to steal from the wealthy and help artists. Gugu Mbatha-Raw portrays Interpol agent Abby, tasked with recruiting Cyrus' crew to stop a billionaire's destructive plan. Despite promising elements, the film's clunky exposition and lack of trust in viewers detract from its potential, with Hart's performance and the mismatched romance between the leads falling short. While the heist scenes inject some thrills, "Lift" ultimately fails to inspire much intrigue.
