Amazon.co.uk Review
What if you could stop your heart to simulate a temporary death, and then be revived so you could describe your near-death experience to others? The mysteries of life--and the afterlife--compel five medical students (Julia Roberts, Kiefer Sutherland, Kevin Bacon, William Baldwin, Oliver Platt) to experiment with their own mortality, and what they discover has unsettling psychological implications. That's the intriguing premise of this neo-Gothic horror thriller, directed by Joel Schumacher (Batman & Robin) with his typical indulgence of vibrant colours and hyperactive, hallucinogenic style. The movie borders on silliness at times, and the near-death recollection of memories results in some repetitious scenes, but the dynamic young cast takes it all quite seriously, which is what keeps this gaudy thriller on the edge. The fascinating premise could have been made into a better film, but Schumacher's mainstream excess doesn't stop Flatliners from being slick, occasionally even provocative entertainment. --Jeff Shannon

Tonight is a good night to die,
By
This review is from: Flatliners [DVD] [1990] (DVD)
An excellent premise that is beautifully brought to life. This explores aspects of 'life after death' in a postive and frightening way. A great cast, a great story and some brilliant ideas all come together in this film. One for the watching.
3.0 out of 5 stars
Flatliners,
This review is from: Flatliners [DVD] [2010] (DVD)
Well I love Kiefer Sutherland and it was great to see him in action in younger years. Also starring the famous Julia Roberts. Its interesting to watch the young scientists experiment with death, and then theres experience of this "is there an afterlife"? It is definately worth a watch but nothing to rave about...
2.0 out of 5 stars

This review is from: Flatliners [DVD] [2010] (DVD)
I found this film to be childish and boring. It was bought on the strength of being directed by Harrison Ford. I was very disappointed and would have expected better.
