Lifted (2010) Reviews
Wow two thumbs up
Obviously lacking a significant budget, but wholly cow. This film hit home, as my wife and I are both from Army families. It is centered on a redeployed Marine, and the troubles his family deals with at home in his absence. Very slow at first, but it really takes off about mid-way. I am not ashamed to say that I that lump in my throat, and the water in my eyes more than made up for the slowness, and lack of high dollar fancy stuff. The writers/producers/directors nailed a wonderful movie on the head, and it is absolutely worth watching. The characters were selected, and played quite well, and man, that little guy can sing. The end of the movie, was one of the most powerful tributes I think I've ever seen, and the dedication was perfect. I can't say it enough, that this little film is a must see.
Great Movie! You MUST watch!
I have watched this movie several times. After finding this film on Netflix, I loved it so much, I found some copies on Amazon and bought 4 copies to give away. The acting was done beautifully, the singing was awesome, and the reality behind a family's emotional life in the absence of they're beloved service member is so right on point. WOW! That kid can really sing! You will find yourself falling for that kid and rooting for him too. The real love he and his dad share in the film is just amazing! This movie is one of my top three favorites now. What a great tribute to our wonderful troops. There is no greater spirit than the one from our precious American Soldier. This movie provides a glimpse of that...and the end? One of the GREATEST endings ever and completely unpredictable.
Great family movie, good tribute to our Soldiers
Heartfelt, entertaining and very sweet. Starts out a little slow, but quickly catches your attention. Rather than keeping you on the edge of your seat with anticipation, Lifted takes a closer look at the passion behind the music, and, more importantly, gives a glimpse into the life of a soldier's family. There was no profanity, no scanty clothes, and no innuendos, which is probably why it hasn't gotten much attention. This is safe to watch with any audience. The purpose of Lifted might have been to show viewers something of what soldiers sacrifice every day, and they did it beautifully. The song "Letters from Home" came to mind several times. Definitely worth watching. Do come prepared with Kleenex.
Awesome movie!!!
This movie was the best movie that I have seen in a very long time. It will definitely make you cry. I really enjoyed the music as well. All I can say is that this is a must see movie. I really can't even say enough about this movie without giving it away. I have it on netflix and everyone that comes over, I make them watch it with me. After watching it, they walk away feeling a little better about their life and a little sadder for all of the men and women who are still left fighting for our country. I will continue to pray for the safe return for our brave men and women who are still fighting for our country. This movie just goes to show the world how children are affected by the death of their loved ones. It doesn't seem fair that these children have to go through such a tragedy at a very young age. My deepest sympathy goes out to these children.
What an excellent movie
I do not know where to begin. Since I only have a few words that can be posted. Let me say that this movie was quite a tearful watch for my wife and I. As with most other reviews, I too will say that the last 20 min of the movie was most likely, the greatest ending to a movie that EVER came out of Hollywood. Unbelievable. I would love to buy a bunch and include them free with every single purchase of my customers. I have never enjoyed a heart felt movie such as this. Most of, it is about time that someone acknowledged the our brothers and sisters fighting to keep America free. If you have any decency about you, this is a movie worth watching. WITH THE ENTIRE FAMILY. It all comes together at the end.
