"Lifted" is a 5-minute short film that came out in spring this year and was directed by Lin Oeding, a stun coordinator, and written by Matt Olmstead. But the star is, of course, Joel Edgerton, who plays the father to a little girl in here. I think that this film is really saved by the plot twist in the end. I did not really see it coming I must admit. The film does completely rely on emotional impact and if you are moved by it, you will love it. otherwise, it will leave you completely uninterested. I believe the first 3.5 minutes could certainly have been better and more moving to be honest. Without the ending, it probably only would have been a 4/10 for me. But with the ending, I recommend this little movie. Solid watch.
