A machine somehow shows that a piece of a person goes somewhere else, and stupid people assume there is an afterlife.

A straightforward drama-type movie.

What’s the opposite of brain candy? It numbs the mind in a kind of monotone hum. While I originally said “terrible writing for a terrible world with terrible characters” on second viewing maybe that’s harsh; I actually kinda like it.

• 1:30 — Afterlife
• 1:45 — Plane (esotericism)

• 7:30 — Neurology
• 8:00 — Overwhelming, definitive.. what?

• 14:30 — I thought that place looked like a mental institution.

• 16:00 — Those don’t restart hearts.

  • Also, I hope he has backups of the critical lifesaving equipment..
• 18:30 — He can’t take it all back, because, as was said before, there was scientific consensus.
• 20:45 — That’s not how a drowning-suicide would work..
• 22:00 — That audio and video cut was really jarring.
• 29:00 — What’s that, no direct talk about specific people that actually do murder others to help them get to a specific place?
• 32:30 — Poe(?) as in Edgar Allan Poe?
• 39:00 — See also Big – (1988 movie).
• 42:45 — Those are all valid concerns which ought to have been explored long ago.
• 43:00 — This movie went sideways ever since she declared she wanted to sleep in his room.
• 47:00 — He’s stuck in an infinite loop of his last moments.
• 51:00 — Why didn’t they keep the stretcher he was in?
• 52:30 — Also contrived. I’m really confused about this movie’s writing. I don’t understand or empathize with that woman.
• 57:00 — Okay, so old memories of large impact are replayed.

• 1:07:30 — .. because memories are always perfect. Memories of corpses are certainly so.

• 1:12:00 — .. can you.. speak English?

  • She was a nurse.
  • 1:12:00 — Called it.
• 1:14:30 — Or it’s been recording idealized memories, or scanning the brain of a corpse gives odd results.
• 1:16:30 — “You don’t have to do this anymore if you don’t want to.” What does that even mean?!
• 1:18:30 — What woman would act like that she has children?
• 1:18:45 — Why is this shaky-cam? Ugh.
• 1:21:15 — All of this still come across as utter nonsense.
• 1:30:15 — So much bullshit.
• 1:31:30 — So he’ll constantly loop back into this death loop thing.
• 1:33:30 — Well okay there stranger.. maybe offer him anti-nausea medication too.

• 1:34:45 — See also Groundhog Day – (1993 movie).
