About
You’ll likely like Dead Again if you enjoy vintage noir-tinged mysteries with supernatural-leaning links between past and present; Not for you if you want a straightforward thriller with an easy-to-follow story, or prefer less convoluted takes like Gorky Park or Presumed Innocent.
Pros: stylish old-school mystery; strong performances; tense suspense | Cons: convoluted plot; confusing at times; a bit overstuffed
