Lifted (2010)
9/10
Wow two thumbs up
15 January 2012
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.
