Based on its posters, I was expecting Elevated: Pushing Buttons to be twee. It could have used more of that and less of the cliché Hollywood romantic comedy plot it actually had.
Linda and Dylan meet in a broken elevator, and then embark in a relationship that changes both their lives. They must first survive cliché after cliché in a narrative that I found highly implausible. The outcome actually made me a little angry because I felt Dylan didn’t deserve the “happy ending” he got. I’m not sure if this was perhaps the point Joseph Ste. Marie’s script was trying to make.
