Afterlife!

Very informative and education documentary that is factual and concise. I learned a lot from watching it about there being a very strong possibility that there is no death and that life goes on after death.

The documentary gave me a lot of comfort and opened my eyes to the fact that we have so much to learn and so little to fear when it comes to the taboo subject of death. I think this documentary should be shown at schools for the older students to learn from. Humanity can only progress once we have conquered our fears and embraced the truth. This documentary encompasses the truth and it is presented in a subtle and cohere manner everyone can enjoy and understand.

How was this documentary made in 2022?? The graphics is straight out of the early 2000s. The soundtrack sounds like it belongs in a 1990s elevator (lift). Add that with some of the latest most advanced scientific information and you have yourself "Ghosts and the Afterlife".

After watching this documentary I am eagerly waiting for AI to take over this industry cause goodness gracious me, humans failed this one...

ADDITIONAL NON-SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: They mention all of the MDs and PHD that will feature in the documentary but in the end their input was minimal with most of the focus on Hollywood.

It's horrifying -- and not in the way you were hoping for. Most prominent are the terrible production values coupled with a goofy narrator who has sadly mistaken the serious -- and, poignant -- topic as an audition for Maybelline mascara.

It's devoid of anything that vaguely resembles scientific research and looks more like an episode of Clutch Cargo. What a waste of time.

As another reviewer pointed out, this travesty sets the topic back decades. Even the few snippets of halfway interesting footage can't redeem Ghosts and the Afterlife. There's not enough lipstick in the world to pretty up this pig.

...this movie seems to have plenty, but I couldn't make it more than 20 minutes. Tried to tolerate the host, the bad audio, and even worse editing choices but it never got better. The host's wide eyed facial expressions and overly enthusiastic tone of voice come off kind of cartoonish creating a strange feeling of dissonance between her and the topics being discussed. Sound effects and background music frequently over power the volume of the people recounting their stories. The editing choices and quality are just... bad. It's poorly made which is a shame because the idea is there, it's just hard to watch. With how all over the place it is - makes me wonder if the intention was to hold the attention of a younger audience?

As important as this topic is and the guests who appeared did their best, the film loses momentum fast.

Imagine you walk into a convention where you're excited for not only the topic but for the expert presenters who are going to appear and speak on something they've studied, researched and or directly experienced. And just as things get started, overwhelmingly loud, bad and distracting music begins playing in and starts to over pace the sound of the guest speaker, while large projectors of b-roll and graphics begin to appear in the background.

Then a host appears every 2 minutes on stage with a dialogue that inserts itself as a secondary commentary and narration for filler between acts. Except it appears the host themselves is the main act.

The actual speakers or guests are given some time, but not nearly enough. Still, you hope to see more of them but instead are being forcibly "entertained" by the flashing lights, off paced music and very off - putting b roll that is projected from every screen.

Sorry, but this production had cheesy and awfully redundant prod-values, as well, it had a knock off vibe of the "The Secret", except it doesn't even come close.

I'm sure they put a lot of hard work into this but I can't help but think this was a vanity project of some sort and no restraint was shown. It's like they stored up content graphics for years and then used every element of it at every turn. It feels disjointed and chaotic and not entertaining though I did enjoy James Van Prague who offers a brief reprieve to an otherwise fragmented and disjointed production.
