5 Flights Up (2014)
7/10
Not-so-serious short and sweet film with nice life lessons
27 March 2019
I really enjoyed this film. As another reviewer mentioned, it's not really memorable, but that doesn't stop this from being worth the watch.

A couple decides to sell their apartment and with the help of the wife's niece, they begin their journey as they put their apartment on the market.

This film was warm without being too corny. Sure, the ending felt a little predictable and yes, there were a few plot-lines that hit dead ends before they could fully develop, but the main story, as well as the characters and those actors that portrayed them, were all very good; the issues and themes are those of racism, love, anguish, and life. Some of the lessons in this film are important today, particularly the one in the scene where they go to make the bid on the other apartment.

If you're looking for a not-so-serious film that is short and sweet with a great leading cast, this is the one for you.
