The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.

There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

Remake. 'Nuf said. The acting is more than could reasonably be expected--with such a tired, thin, clinched storyline. Whoever wrote the acting credits apparently forgot to watch ANY of the shooting of even the makeup sessions. $ad! (I kept looking for the "blonde" man. I finally decided that he was the haggard, suited, balding, brown-haired man.) Not even close! Proofreading is too expensive, I guess. Again, the acting is good, even better than good, at times. I watched it twice--all the way to the copyright info. Attention to detail makes ALL the difference (think James Ivory). Garcia will get better!

25,000 million budget that has next to zero special effects and is all about acting and plot like an indie flick? Did it all go to Hathaway and Wilson, a much smaller part to Wilson, please tell Jennifer that.I like moves that deal with the what existence might be like after mortality. Have researched this a lot from a lot of people dying in my life early and I like the concept. It has been written about. The theory of some just "move on" and some hang around to understand until they choose to. Apples (the world), and Oranges (the Spirit world).I thought the acting was good and I don't get the whole "I hate Anne Hathaway" thing for her career. But I haven't seen her bad movies though many if guess consider this one. Like Rachel got Married she plays her role well and shows her versatlity as an actress. The two leads carry the movie and show what is so easily passed over in life in our societal conditioning and what we are trained to be. They put this in a very good way in my opinion in this movie.Yet once again it should have been an indie flick. It made 250,000 U.S. and it's production values are one of an indy which I love when it's done right. Focusing on the characters and not a Transformers show that Americans will pay through the roof for.

Painful...Another reviewer here used that word and I truly, TRULY feel that it fits most accurately. I usually scan through the reviews quickly before writing one and USUALLY I roll my eyes and get quite irritated at all the horrible reviews and comments about 'Worst movie', etc., etc... However, in THIS case I honestly had to agree when I saw the detailed comments about how some people here really did not like this film. The reviewer I mentioned, Moristang, stated some good points about the completely unbelievable acting, especially Anne Hathaway's, which is odd since she normally can be quite good. I FULLY agree with his comments about how her awkward, superficially phony nervousness and mannerisms were EXTREMELY annoying and totally unbelievable.It is not often that a film evokes such a strong negative reaction from me, since by now it seems that MOST people at least know how to put them together with some degree of competency. Sure, there are MANY movies that may leave me unmoved, or I find that they don't do much for me, or it turns out not to be a type that I normally would like. But, THIS time, I can honestly relate to Moristang's use of the word 'Painful', and even more so as the movie progressed. I mean, the premise certainly sounded interesting and mysterious; I'm SURE that the overall idea was good. But, GEEZ, the acting was SO dang awful, literally GRATING on the nerves the more the film progressed. Almost ALL of the interactions between characters, to me anyway, appeared to be forced, awkward, and TOTALLY unbelievable in ANY context. Sure, I understand that Anne's character had not interacted with actual patients before, but still, her amateurish manner was just about more than I could literally bear. Really...And, just to take one instance; the interaction between her and the supposedly 'Euphoric' guy was just about THE frigg'n worst I've ever seen, and I own and have seen a LOT of movies, let me tell you. All that smug, phony smiling and her little feigned, quiet, whispery little voice were almost enough to send me screaming through the house! Bloody AWFUL! Finally, there is the scene where she is going to meet him and there is this sudden gust of wind that blows a paper into her face and scares her causing here to give off a little scream. She looks up and the guy is right in front of her looking at her through a gate, very calmly and condescendingly, with this little DOUCHEY smirk on his face. Something that absolutely NO ONE would buy as any where NEAR a believable or realistic reaction in ANY way, shape, or form. That did it for me right there. I had to say to myself that that was quite honestly some of the worst acting (or perhaps direction) that I have seen in a very long time.So, all I can say is that I don't know if anyone else would be as sensitive as I am and react as violently negative as I did, but all I got out of it was cringing and pain. Pure and simple... Now, maybe others might not be bothered by these kinds of things and may be able simply to sit back and watch the story unfold and enjoy it. But, not me, let me tell you. When I say that I haven't seen anything so EXCRUCIATING and so poorly done in a long time, I truly mean it. With all my heart and soul...Like I said, maybe the idea for the story was pretty good; I was genuinely intrigued by the premise and there appear to be people in the movie that normally seem to be good actors, but for me personally, I could feel the nerve endings in my body singing shrilly in the utmost pain as I tried to watch this film.I RARELY ever take the time to write negative reviews; if you check mine, you will see that probably over 95% of the time I am writing at least somewhat of a positive review, usually to try to point out the good things in films where many others have P|$$ed all over them. I usually am EXTREMELY scornful of these jaded @ssholes claiming to be such authorities on film, and usually enjoy pointing that out. BUT... THIS time, I must sadly admit that the many detailed negative comments by others about this film appear to be quite true...

this is so far one of the worst films that i've ever so painfully to watch, because this screenplay and the scenario are just so stupid and full of ridiculous flaws. you just can't sign up a pretty face to play the head shrink only with high doctorate degrees but never qualifies for the practice yet. she is such an awkward amateur, she didn't even know how to address the survivors of a major air disaster. she is just like a college student trying to do a extremely tough job as a head shrink. she even falls for one of the survivor, sleep with him and becomes his lover. this is such a stupid development. then later, the dramatic confront with the guy who later shows as the exact airline pilot and miraculous involves in a exactly the same burning and crashing airline disaster, and more ridiculously, the young stupid amateur head shrink is one of the passengers and accompanied by a former survivor as her lover. Jesus Christ, i've never seen a movie that signed up many a-list actors to be in such a stupid film. the reason why i write this review is that i feel upset and angry about this film that have wasted so much money for nothing.
