Most helpful review It's a Wonderful Afterlife

  • A bit amateurishly made, but good fun to watch!

    Rated - 3.0 stars

    [Highly rated reviewer]

    I am really glad Brit movies are starting to become more viewer friendly. I have watched some really good British made movies recently and I am quite glad that Britain is once again contributing so well to cinema (watching US movies can get predictable!). This movie was admittedly amateurishly made: I am referring to the make up,costumes and special effects (specifically of the ghosts and their appendages hanging out....could have been done better and more realistically and less theatre like).BUT it did have a funny plot and I warmed up to the characters really fast. I quite enjoyed a rom com of sorts that was a bit different from the usual.

    This is so funny and amusing to watch. Who would have guessed it the murderer being a sweet gentle mother. Who is only looking out for the daughter's interest in this tale of unsuspecting humour. Loved the scene in the engagement and reminded me of the scene from carrie, ha ha

  • Well worth a look..Beatlejuice/American werewolf..meets Bollywood..!

    Rated - 5.0 stars  
    By a customer , 10 Apr 2012
    This is really funny, very tongue-in-cheek, takes a knowing 'look' at the Asian community, both young and old,(and also western followers who 'find' themselves..) adds in elements of 'Beatlejuice' and 'American Werewolf..' , along with references to general horror films (Friday 13th, Nightmare on.. inc The Marquee 'Carrie' sequence....loads more probably I've missed.)

    If you fancy an English, very 'Airplane' horror (not very actually..) film, try it.
