While it boasts an impressive cast, striking visuals, and an effective mood, Flatliners never quite jolts its story to life. Read critic reviews

Jun 16, 2017"Med students explore to see what might lie beyond death" might be the advertisement, but what one gets is the old bait-and-switch. Instead of that exploration we get pseudo-Freudian analysis delivered by runway cute actors. What happens after death? One's perm still looks good, baby ... and Zoolander pout. Filmed in Chicago.

Feb 03, 2015Far from Schumacher's worst film, and one that proves to be watchable. Kevin Bacon is certainly the best piece of this puzzle. Flatliners may from having a far stronger concept than execution, and the script is riddled with weaknesses, but it's not BAD, it's just not all that good. A middle of the road, okay-ish, tame sci-fi come horror/thriller.

Dec 29, 2012Spooky, creepy and well-acted thriller, also has amazing cinematography and haunting images and music. Every images from the four lead's dreams coming to life are haunting, creepy, smart and sometimes very violent. Joel Schumacher did an amazing job with the direction, he casted an perfect ensemble and made an intense and interesting movie, but hands down, the cinematography is beautiful, so if you like to be thrilled, this is your movie.

May 15, 2012A film made me cry is a good film, despite being horror based, I thoroughly enjoyed the film. Resurrection requires a sacrifice, the film detailed the conscience of all man kind, and how we need to be able to deal with them in order to live on. Quite a good film for adult audience.
