About Rise
After the untimely death of Andy (Randy Spears), he's shown his past in the form of a highlight reel. His guide for this unusual demonstration Melissa (Kaylani Lei) politely provides the monologue and tries to help him see his former shortcomings. You see, Andy was never successful in love. Whether it was insecurity, work ethic or the after effects of a broken heart, he never found true love. But maybe this time, in the afterlife, with Melissa's guidance, he can rise to the occasion...
Directed by David Stanley, Rise leans on a strong ensemble — Kaylani Lei, Brooke Banner, Roxy DeVille — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about screen titles of 2008.
