Hereafter (2010)

...this incredible drama that follows three very different people who all find themselves crossing paths with death in their own ways...

...I was wondering if anyone here has actually sat down to watch it yet? I'd love to hear your thoughts, especially since it's already snagged an Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences nomination for Best Visual Effects...

The reviews are absolutely brutal. First, Ebert went out on a limb and gave the movie a full **** stars (is that some kind of Werner Herzog syndrome?), only to be met with this immediate backlash: Hereafter – review http://t.co/JYMtWHl via @guardian

Clint's shame ... Hereafter

Clint Eastwood's latest is an unholy embarrassment that everyone involved will do best to forget, writes Peter Bradshaw

Most of the other critics seem to be following suit, and if I’m remembering correctly, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences basically snubbed Clint's film entirely—aside from maybe one technical nomination. 🤷

We'll see how it plays out. 😁

The topic is open...

I haven't sat down to watch the movie yet, but I highly doubt it’s some massive disaster. Maybe it won't quite hit the heights of his classics like *Gran Torino* or *Invictus*, but calling it a total train wreck? I'm skeptical. I'll catch it soon enough and see for myself.

It looks pretty solid and interesting to me; I'd definitely be down to watch it.

I noticed he’s actually up for an Oscar for Best Visual Effects, so if nothing else, I'm definitely checking this one out just for that—I've always had a massive soft spot for great special effects...😁

Not seeing much chatter about this movie yet... I caught it last night, but honestly, the whole thing felt totally aimless. That opening tsunami scene was basically just a showcase for special effects, but once that’s over, the plot just drags on and on—it actually gets pretty boring in some spots. All in all, I'd give it a 3/10.
