THE LIFT BOY (Internet Release USA 2020)

Ben Meyers’ rating: 4.6|5.0 Starsìììì

The Lift Boy crosses USA entertainment borders well with its relatable, coming of age story. It’s light, easy on the mind, and relevant to the human experience. The camera work is good and scenery for staging the story excellent. The movie almost attains re-watchable status due to the way the story unfolds and the introduction of significant characters a little later in the story. The film has been rated TV-MA which seems a little harsh. It could have easily been rated TV-PG or TV-14. Good work for Director Jonathan Augustin.
