About
You’ll likely enjoy Hereafter if you want an emotional, character-driven supernatural drama about death, rather than a fast occult thriller; Not for you if slow pacing or talk-heavy structure, like Contagion or Afterlife, isn’t your style.
Pros: tender character drama; engaging performances; beautiful premise | Cons: slow pacing; flat or uneven story; tone and balance issues
