Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

Think of this as a low budget "Close Encounters" without aliens. Larry (Patrick Killian) has a successful career as a pizza delivery boy. He is fascinate by alien encounters and is part of a UFO group that believe something is going to happen with the millennium only a week away. At the UFO group meeting, introverted Larry meets the highly extroverted Pam (Elyse Ashton), the babe in the group, who goes home with him.Sure she is crazy, but she is good looking, brings her own coke, and likes making love while Larry wears a space alien gray mask. Having met what would be the love of my life, Larry tosses it all away as he is drawn to the black mail box by Area 51. He must make a pilgrimage to be there at the millennium.Larry doesn't have many lines. His life is a sad comedy. The film holds your interest in a quirky sort of way. What is curious are the names that appear on the front of DVD cover, "Shaun Johnston, Kim Hogan, and David Everhart" as their names are not associated with any of the credits of this film at IMDB. Could someone toss me a bone on that one?Parental Guide: F-bomb, sex, no nudity.

Well, this movie can. It's like a bunch random events one after another (the script was probably thrown together on a beer drinking/weed smoking afternoon). I couldn't tell you what the story is about, even if you'd point a gun at my head. There is no point watching this, because it gives you a serious headache, or, what's worse, tons of restless hours wondering what was this all about. However, there are things I realized after the ending:Nevada desert is full of strange, possibly mentally handicapped peopleYou should never try to find a black mailbox unless you are a taciturn, annoying Pizza guy wearing jeans and red T shirt Twisted goth chicks will make love to you only when you're wearing a ridiculous UFO mask Never try hitchhiking if you can't make a distinction between black and white Famous businessmen try to vitalize themselves by drilling their foreheadTo cut a long story short, "Lift" is a bad, meaningless, irritating experience. Consider yourself to be warned, avoid this disaster at all costs! I told you...

I picked this up in my local library. Thank God I didn't pay to rent it. It's a shame I can't get my time back. I kept hoping the story would develop and take an interesting turn. No such luck. The topic has the potential. The cast probably could have done better if they had been given something, anything to work with. I'm left wondering if this film got made because somebody lost a bet. Maybe if I was drunk or stoned it wouldn't have mattered that there is nothing of value here. Perhaps most telling, if you do a search on IMDb, you'll be hard pressed to find out anything about the cast. I guess they're all too embarrassed about being in this bomb. Spend your time more productively by say, watching paint dry.

Not too much sophisticated context. Not many dialogs. Rather slow pace. Not much of anything other than a road movie full of random meetings with hillarious crazy "characters" and dialogs in an american desert scenery.Okay, this film makes no sense. But who said every movie should?This is interesting independent american filming. Satisfying end.
