Matialth Good concept, poorly executed.

plutus1947 This is a very strange movie but nevertheless extremely watchable.SPOILER BEGINS This is the tale of a beautiful woman, Anna Taylor (Christina Ricci) who walked out on her boyfriend, Paul Coleman (Justin Long) at a restaurant just before he was going to propose to her.She drives off crying and eventually is involved in a car accident and finds herself on an undertakers slab ready to be prepared for burial by Eliot Deacon (Liam Neeson), the Funeral Director.Anna can move and speak and Eliot can see and hear her and of course Anna wants to know why she is where she is and Eliot tells her that the accident left her dead and he was going to prepare her for her funeral and burial. He even shows her a copy of her Death Certificate.He tells her that he has a gift of being able to see and speak to the dead.From then on it was a cat and mouse game between Anna and Eliot, she trying to convince him that she is still alive and Eliot trying to get Anna to accept she was dead.Before she ended up in the Funeral Parlour Anna was a schoolteacher and one of her students Jack (Chandler Canterbury) insisted that he saw her peering out of the window in the Funeral Home.SPOILER ENDS The wonderful thing about this movie is that you simply did not know whether Anna was still alive or indeed dead until the very last minute of the movie and the ending was for most people totally unexpected although I thought I had figured it out about a minute before all was revealed and I am glad to say I was right.However I am not going to reveal the outcome I thoroughly recommend that you watch this movie. The acting was superb but that is what you would expect from three such talented actors and the Direction was superb.The writers, Agnieszka Wojtowicz-Vosloo and Paul Vosloo must be congratulated on such a great script.A special mention should be given to Chandler Canterbury who played Jack the student at Anna's school. He is a very talented child actor, played his part wonderfully and given the chance I am sure he will become a well established adult actor.I feel you should be warned that Christina Ricci spent about 25% of the movie naked but in my case that was an enormous plus.I have no hesitation in recommending this movie and have given it an 8 star rating. 6 for the movie and 2 for Christina Ricci allowing us red blooded males the pleasure of seeing her superlative body.

Kirpianuscus like many other horrors. but in its case the motif is little more complex. because it is a challenge to viewer.more than a psychological one.it is a demand. to choose the right version of story. for define the truth out of ambiguous elements. in same measure, it is the film of Liam Neeson who propose his character as a form of oracle. a film about reality and appearances. and about happiness. seductive for cinematography and, maybe , for the memories about Justin Long and Christina Ricci performances in same genre movies. fascinating and mysterious, example of inspired cinematography and dialogue, it is a form of challenge as trip inside the viewer life. good support for reflection. and one of splendid roles of Liam Neeson.

shaunwebb66 Disappointing is the best way to describe this film. It is full of gratuitous nudity (although most won't mind seeing Christina Ricci's breasts). The plot had more holes than a stack of swiss cheese. The movie is pure shock value and the suspense factor was not compelling. I yawned through most of the picture; waiting for something that would never happen. No jump scenes, no likable characters and absolutely no cinema value whatsoever. If you choose to watch this silliness, put your senses on the shelf for a couple of hours so your intelligence doesn't have to face the numerous insults that are thrown at it.Liam, Christina and Justin, you can do MUCH better in choosing your scripts....better yet, fire your agents for talking you into this mindless mess.

maxtrevi1959 I wasn't expecting much from this movie given the reviews but man were they were wrong. This movie is a gem. A young woman (Ricci) wakes up on a mortician's slab and is told she's dead by a creep mortician (Neeson). From then on it's a twisting tale of reality vs perception. You're never sure whether she's dead or alive, and by the end of the movie you're left guessing. There's obvious clues, and you only have to look at the message board to see how much debate there still is going on despite the movie being over 3 years old. Liam Neeson in particular was stunningly creepy, and yes, Miss Ricci shows a lot of skin -- but hey she's a corpse in a funeral home -- but then again is she? Original and fresh, this movie is definitely in my top 10.
