We live in an age of unnecessary remakes - but the new Flatliners movie, by Danish director Niels Arden Oplev, has the distinction of being perhaps the most unnecessary of them all. September 30, 2017 | Rating: C | Full Review…

A fright-free fiasco. This update of a silly 1990 Julia Roberts thriller is even more witless and stupefyingly dull than the original. September 30, 2017 | Rating: 1/4 | Full Review…

A fabulous idea for a movie, but unfortunately Flatliners represents the second failed attempt to do it justice. September 30, 2017 | Rating: 1.5/4 | Full Review…

In the beginning they sold it to us as a sequel, but then they gave us a very decaffeinated remake that fails in everything. [Full Review in Spanish] August 7, 2019 | Full Review…

Overall, Flatliners failed because it refused to venture into the unknown, and played safe with characters who wanted nothing but the opposite. April 10, 2019 | Full Review…

The biggest sin committed by Flatliners is its complete and utter dullness. It's the cinematic equivalent of drying paint. February 11, 2019 | Rating: 0/5 | Full Review…

There really isn't much more to say about the Flatliners remake except that it is a completely unnecessary, if not terrible piece of work. Nothing to mourn over, but no evidence to suggest it contains true signs of life. January 18, 2019 | Rating: 2.5/5 | Full Review…
