A Clint Eastwood film, so it must be brilliant. Nope. It's only directed by him, and it seems he doesn't shine as much in the directorial world as he does in the acting one.
A big fat mess of a movie, 'Hereafter' tries to cram complicated story after complicated story into the same place, mixing them up and jiggling them about, until you haven't got a clue what is going on. I'm not a huge fan of Matt Damon but even I was surprised that he appeared in a film like this. It's not even a mega religious movie, it doesn't give that much of a punch to the extent where people will be quarrelling over the religious factors after it's ended. It's just a pretty dire attempt at trying to look artistic by the director ('shame on you Clint!) and it fails miserably, with unfinished endings and totally uninventive characters.
