Athough similar topics been addressed,someone dies & has unfinished business on earth..
Despite it being obviously clichéd,it was rather enjoyable & one I'd recommend seeing.
Decent cast,music & cinematography too.

It's not a perfect storyline, but this movie was heart-wrenching. Perhaps because I've felt my own pain involving a parent and have to work through it, I felt deeply connected to the character. It's such a sweet ending, though perhaps bittersweet.
You made a grown 45yo man cry...are you happy now?
Didn't expect much, thought it would be just some kind of comedy, but somehow it got to me. Not really a memorable movie, but the way the story is played out was very emotional. In a good way, that is.

Well I'm not gonna lie, Justice is a beauty.
Another original Netflix movie that featured a social media celebrity. Just like He's All That, right off the first scene I already wanted to turn off the screen. It's like the way characters party and interact with each other felt fake and cringe.
However, when the premise kickstarted, I was actually surprised that this movie wasn't completely unbearable. Although not a new concept, the movie still delivered with fairly impactful scenes with good hearts and redemptions. Also, Victoria Justice was not bad at all. She portrayed her character pretty well, gave some decent emotions, and most importantly wasn't annoying.
Although the story was interesting, I did not like the tone. The cast of the movie reflected the less serious tone. I hated this because the content of the story itself should have been serious and contemplating. I didn't really feel most of the emotions and impact of the themes at the end.
Also, not all of the parts of the story worked. The one with the mother in particular was very flat and had inadequate development.
Overall, decent story and acting but filled with unmatched tone. 6/10.

Sluggish in the middle with what appears to be a lack of material, and it probably goes a little too long as a result, but Stephen Herek's 'Afterlife of the Party' works more frequently than not. It's one of those films where you already know where it's going but it's fine if you just enjoy the ride. Victoria Justice and Midori Francis are perfectly placed in their respective parts, and they deliver strong performances with warm chemistry that bring their characters to life.
