    i'm being dead fucking serious when i tell you that this is my genuine rating for **The Lift** (2020). it's TERRIBLE... so bad that it's actually too fucking good. while the acting, lack of emotions and poor special effects are highly present and cannot be looked over, the zestful pacing, the beautiful camerawork and the riveting plot with it's cheap twists and turns compensate for one trashy fun hell of a ride. this is so wrong in so many levels, especially in the fact that the characters are as dimentional as a five-years-old kid's drawing, but having the first elevator events commence after the first twenty minutes is such a power move and especially the nonsensical and bizarre fun that surprisingly holds up too well and has an inmense amount of the cheesy factor that i love. the ending literally has no meaning at all and is just thrown in for the sake of concluding the story in a crazy manner and i just love how the director had two dollars and a dream and just went with it! it's probably the epitome of so bad it's good, even beating the Sharknado franchise. give me another theater watch and this bumps up to a five stars. can't believe this work of art got independently distributed after two goddamn years.
