The Flying Liftboy

About This Movie

So, 'The Flying Liftboy' is this quirky little adventure from '98. It has that offbeat charm that you don’t see much anymore. Abel, our lead, ends up in this surreal lift job after a prank goes sideways. The lift’s green button? That’s where the real fun begins; it shoots them off to Manhattan. The pacing feels a bit uneven, but it works in a way that keeps you guessing. The themes of friendship and mischief really stand out, especially with the practical effects in the lift scenes—definitely has a homemade feel to it. The performances, especially from the kids, have this genuine energy that carries the whole thing. It’s just a refreshing romp that oscillates between whimsy and chaos.
