Retour Clandestin

Everything about this movie is average, except: 1. The script (it sucks) 2. The directoin + editing (it's boring) The plot is so predictable it makes your eyes bleed.

Let me give you a hint: at the very instant I heard someone say the word "Bicycle" I said to myself: "The girl is gonna die in an accident. No way around it."

The whole script is so terribly predictable that this movie should have a big disclaimer on the opening credits saying... "Spoiler Alert!"

This movie was made just because thera is a streaming service to back it. No sane producer would touch this with a ten-foot pole. Nor would they be able to hire the main star in the cast, even though she's like "C" grade.

The film demonstrates remarkable proficiency in its execution of camera angles, fashion design, and the selection of diverse environments and locations. Visually, it captivates the audience, creating a rich and immersive cinematic experience. However, the storyline presents some accessibility challenges. A significant portion of the dialogue is delivered in a foreign language, and the absence of English subtitles for these segments hampers the audience's ability to fully comprehend the narrative. This is a regrettable oversight, particularly given the film's high production values.

Furthermore, while certain camera angles contribute to an intriguing atmosphere, the pacing of the film is notably sluggish. It takes a considerable amount of time for the story to hint at its horror elements, which may leave some viewers feeling disengaged. Personally, I favor films that introduce horror themes more swiftly or interweave them throughout the narrative from the outset. I find that productions adhering to conventional themes and formats within the basic horror genre often lack the depth and innovation that truly engage my interest.

A speech impaired girl plays the piano very well and lives with her mother. This girl has an accident during a trip. She is put into a coma. When she wakes up, she starts talking. But she wakes up with anger.

Shortly after the girl's waking scene, the whole movie can be easily predicted. This means that many similar scenarios have been written. The movie could not do anything different from these scenarios.

I personally did not enjoy the movie. Also, in these kinds of movies, there is apology in dreams and making amends, which is pure comedy. I can't say I enjoyed watching it.

There is no sexuality or nudity in the movie.

The concept seemed good. A girl dies, reawakens inexplicably, and then behaves as if possessed by an evil entity. It's a basic plot, but I figured I'd be in for at least a C+ horror. The lead actress seems OK, and I guess the Italy setting seemed to mix with the religious theme

I just feel that the movie fails to execute. Instead of fully focusing on the girl and what's wrong with her, we get all these annoying and boring flashbacks involving the mother (they keep going back to some scratches on her arm too). At one point, she meets an individual who describes how he's seen people who came back from the dead, just as the girl did; and the movie just fails so badly in this scene. What should have been a scary exposition comes off as normal and mundane for some reason. Basically - my feedback is that movie should've focused more on the girl, not the mother and her past.

Here After, starring Connie Britton, explores life, love, and the afterlife in a whimsical yet disjointed way. The film follows a man's journey in the afterlife, where he must find true love to move on, blending elements of romance and the supernatural. While the premise is intriguing, the execution falls flat, with pacing issues and dialogue that sometimes feels forced. Despite a solid performance from Connie Britton, the film struggles to connect emotionally, leaving you more aware of its flaws than invested in the characters. Overall, it doesn't quite deliver on its promise, making it a tough watch at 3/10.
