Summary: Suspense-filled, dramatic, downright eerie
Review: Flatliners is an all-time great. The realistic possibility of the plot makes you wonder, "what if?". You won't find a more exciting, dramatic, action-packed classic than this.

Summary: Excellent!
Review: This movie is great from start to finish about a group of med students that get together and literally kill each other by stopping their hearts and then revive themselves. They then research what happens from the "near death" experiences. As each one goes through the experience, they become haunted by their deepest fears that seem to materialize as reality.
The cast is first rate and Oliver Platt is hilarious in one of the best roles of his career. I am not a big Keifer Sutherland fan but even he does an excellent job. This is a movie that I can watch over and over!

Summary: Not quite ready for "ER"
Review: Here's a stylish and dark little gem of a sci-fi/supernatural outing, with Kiefer Sutherland, William Baldwin, Kevin Bacon and Julia Roberts as really cool medical students who experiment with life and death. Sutherland especially sets the tone with verve, and he walks around dark, deserted city streets decked out like someone from a Duran Duran music video--the consummate big-city, white-boy graduate student.

Summary: Highly Thrilling and Original
Review: Honestly I never heard of this movie until a few months ago. I am a pretty big fan of Keifer Sutherland and some of his movies and of course his tv show 24. So about a month ago I blindly bought this movie just for the hell of it. The Flatliners stars Julia Roberts, Kevin Bacon, one of the Baldwins, and of course Keifer. The Flatliners itself is a pretty cool movie with a different concept than those in its genre. It deals with young medical students experimenting to find out if there is an afterlife. Once they come back from the afterlife they are haunted by the other side. This is one of the ultimate "Do not do this at home" movies. Although after I saw it I couldn't help from asking my friends "How much money would you do it for", lol. I bet one you see this you will be asking your friends. One area where it is lacking though is the DVD itself is lacking any kind of special features, interactive menus, and a decently layed out chapter selection. In all honestly the movie is pretty good but the DVD is terrible compared to other newer DVDs. To me things like that make a difference. The fact that it is cheap makes up for it though. I think if you enjoyed movies such as Stir of Echoes, The Sixth Sense, Vanilla Sky, or even the Mothman Prophies (underrated movie) you probably will enjoy this movie. At times it is dark and sorta twisted but it always stays on track and never bores you. Definetly check this movie out if you are a fan of Keifer Sutherland, Kevin Bacon or Julia Roberts because they all shine in this movie. Movie grade - B+
DVD Grade - D-

Summary: Three stars for trying.
Review: What a great premise for a modern horror story: Young Frankensteins bent crossing the line between life and death. It is a creative and interesting premise along the lines of so many classics, including, of course, Frankenstein, The Fly (the re-make, especially), and The Man With the X-Ray Eyes. Of course, there will be hell to pay for "going where Man ought not go." Oh yes, there'll be hell! But where the movie fails is in its rather silly, preachy lecture on the consequences of these actions. I won't give it away here, but the film turns into a cheap spin on a familiar ghost story, something done to much better effect in The Sixth Sense. The acting is just average, with Julia Roberts looking better than average, and constraining her hideous laugh, but the rest just mailing it in--with one exception. Kevin Bacon. He has turned out to be a terrific actor all around (including in Mystic River), and he is a real stand out in this film, too. Too bad he isn't enough to save it. Watch this movie for the premise, for the director's ability to create suspense, and try not to cringe too much as the truth is revealed. Once again, a great premise dies because of bad execution.
