Meh! not much happens! The first 15 mins are pretty darn good though! Apart from that, once again... Meh!
This is dull beyond belief with nothing to attract as a film.
More like psychology than anything with a pointless storyline, a love interest and a very low-key religious undercurrent
Certainly not a "thriller" as quoted
This was an ok film, glad I watched it for the curiosity factor, however I did think afterwards about how amazing the opening scene was...and that was about it.
the linking stories in relation to recent events was cleaver however i did feel a bit disappointed in this film.
‘Hereafter’ is a fantasy drama directed by Clint Eastwood. The movie is about three different people who are affected by fatal events in their life. George is a blue collar worker who has a gifted ability to speak with the dead. Marie is a French journalist who had survived a tsunami in Thailand. Marcus is a school boy who suffers the death of his elder brother. The drama is centered on the connecting point of the three lead characters.
The acting by the lead characters is quite amazing. We have seen the acting abilities of Matt Damon in many different occasions. The performances of other actors like Ceclie De France and the young twins have also helped the movie shape up very well. The emotional sequences are played to perfection by al most all leading characters in the film.
There are various emotional depictions by the lead characters in various circumstances like loss of a loved one, and near death experience etc. The movie is well paced and the narration is done perfectly. The screenplay is done fantastically and the performances match the intensity of the script.
The terrifying events portrayed in the film are hard-hitting and emotional. Sometimes the movie appears to be predictable and slow paced. True, there is no big suspense in the film and the emotional scenes are a bit slow. Despite having some fantasy elements like a psychic who can communicate with the dead, this movie is a pure emotional drama. This is a hard to miss film for all emotional drama lovers.
