Summary: One year after the existence of the afterlife is scientifically verified, millions around the world have ended their own lives in order to “get there”. A man and woman fall in love while coming to terms with their own tragic pasts and the true nature of the afterlife.
It fits the following Genre(s): Sci-Fi, Drama, Mystery, Thriller, Romance.
It is slow moving, not a lighthearted matinee, but a thought provoking drama. It was a bit confusing for me as there is quite a bit of time changes and I usually don't do well with that. As the plot became clearer things did fall into place and I'm glad I hung in there. I liked it, although the subject material certainly makes you think of your own views of mortality and "if" you could have a second chance to get things right, would you? Jason Segel did a fair job in the drama which surprised me as all I ever saw him in was the comedy "How I Met Your Mother",
Robert Redford & Rooney Mara round out the top characters.
