Flatliners (1990)

[Annette]

Flatliners starred Kiefer Sutherland, Julia Roberts, Kevin Bacon and William Baldwin.

This was an excellent film. It was all about the adults being obsessed with Death. Whether there was an afterlife. Each person was 'killed' then brought back to life, each one being left that little while longer. They then spoke of their experiences. Only trouble being each one was haunted by something from their past.

All in all I thoroughly enjoyed this film and will watch it again and again.

I enjoy Flatliner also. It was a good movie. The death theme was very interesting. I love seen Kiefer and Kevin in this one. They choose great actors for this one.

i enjoyed this movie -- not as much as some others i've seen Kiefer Sutherland in, but the idea was interesting -- and is something that a number of people explore -- "is there something/anything after death" --

and it was interesting to see how the different characters approached that question --

Of course it's sad but before you get to know what's really going on it's terrific...when Julia meets her dead father again and again or esp. when Kiefer meets the little boy and he beats the crap out of him...

[summershake]

D'ya mean the Bladwin-women-scenes? I wouldn't mind watching the movie with my parents but you can be sure as hell that when I'm watching it alone in my room one of them will barge in to ask me something, notice I'm watching tv, look up at the tv, look back at me and babble some excusion leaving the room...LOL
That's what happens every time I watch a movie and there is a little or even just tiny sex scene in it...I can be sure that this will be the time they forget to knock and stumble back outside embarrased...that's why I love living on my own now...
Murphy's Law! LOL

They all are confrontated with something bad they did in their life...or at least they think they did (in Julia's case....it wasn't really her fault)...
And Baldwin (don't know the name of his part) filmed all the woman without them knowing...he kinda abused them...
So it's getting back to him.....
