Not bad, but not good either. Average.

This is not a bad movie, like most of the other reviews make it look. However, It wasn't good either. It was average - a movie that I wouldn't watch again because there is nothing new to see or discover the second time.

I didn't hate the movie. I thought the acting at some points was poor and the script was forced, but apart from that, everyone did their job. Some parts could have been improved in terms of making it more realistic.

Overall, I am giving Aftermath a 6 out of 10. I really wanted to like the movie more but I just couldn't.

Arnold can act

Not a bad movie. Arnold fans like myself will be chomping at the bit waiting for him to do his usual thing, but this is Arnold showing that he can actually act. Good drama, well written and acted. But lacks that certain something to make it great. Still worth a watch though.

Very realistic character study

When I watched this it reminded me of the Joker. A dark character study based on a true story of how people deal with grief. The ending is perfect too. Arnie is really showing his range here which is something his action hero contemporaries have not tried to stretch. Not sure how much of this is based on truth and how much is fiction but it's totally believable. Truly tragic all around.

Arnold Schwarzenegger performs well outside of action too.

Don't expect any Terminators jumping around in this movie. The plot is somewhat new, and not a used up scenario you find in every second movie.

It's a movie that goes a bit deeper than the usual special effects movies these days.

I did not find this movie boring as some stated, it got a slow pace but well thought. The characters need to breathe to send their message out.

So if you want pure action, stay away from it, if you like movies that bring their message with acting, go for it. Arnold Schwarzenegger is talking with his whole body, that's what I prefer to overextended dialogues.

So if you thought you leave it out, because it's just a 6 rating, you might miss an interesting new face of Arnold Schwarzenegger.

The actors around him did a good job as well.

A. Schwarzenegger will surprise you...

Not exactly the best film and the filmography surplus, but this film still manages to pull viewer into a story that is, simply put, sad. The sequence of events takes characters through many years of deep regrets and pain, showing us that one event can leave an indelible mark on us. Despair and pain can lead even most average person, who lives completely average and peaceful life, to become furious madman in the hunt for something that will never be.

This is far from Oscar material, but it is a certainly watchable movie, which, in some moments, makes you think "what would I do?".

Arnold S. showed his "emotional" side, which to be honest is very warm, paternal and sensual but at the same time ... Well, look at the film. It is not a waste of time, but do not expect too much

Trivia
Based on the real-life crash of Bashkirian Airlines Flight 2937 and DHL Flight 611. The incident occurred on July 1, 2002, when the two planes crashed into each other in midair over the town of Überlingen, Germany.

Goofs
In the United States, the transition altitude is 18,000 ft. Flight levels, which are approximated altitudes based on standard air pressure, are only used above the transition altitude, as it simplifies operations at high altitude. However, under 18,000 ft, the actual altitude as read using the correct local air pressure is used instead, and expressed in feet, not flight levels. Therefore, an air controller would not ask an aircraft to descend to flight level 65, but rather ask to descend to 6500 ft. Correction: This statement is true for the United States, but not every country uses 18,000 ft as the transition altitude. Germany for example uses 5000 ft, and in Switzerland it's 7000 ft. So, issuing a clearance to FL 065 is correct depending on the country. This accident happened over Germany.

Quotes
Roman: Look at this photo. I would like for someone to say that they're sorry for killing my family.
