This film tells the story of three people who have different degrees of experiences with death.The subplot about the kid is particularly heart wrenching. I find the story gripping. Just as expected, Clint Eastwood delivers yet another thought provoking and emotional film again.

An emotional film (bring some hankies) exploring the love of children for their mother, the loss of a loved one, and the near-death experiences of the two main characters. The acting is superb, particularly the young McLaren brothers and Cecile DeFrance. I applaud Clint Eastwood for taking this risk and creating a solid piece with riveting emotions and a fantastic conclusion. The only leap of faith that must be taken is the belief that George (Matt Damon) truly has this gift/curse since it is the thread that weaves through all his relationships. This is truly an enjoyable movie and adds to my belief that the greatness of a film is not in the critic's eyes but in your own. This is the second sleeper movie of the week for me. The first one was RED...a great, entertaining movie.

Clint Eastwood delivers a deeply affecting film with 'Hereafter'. A masterfully executed tale on grief, death & afterlife. Eastwood deserves high points for his sensitive approach towards this tender, yet tragic human-drama.'Hereafter' Synopsis: A drama centered on three people -- a blue-collar American, a French journalist and a London school boy -- who are touched by death in different ways.'Hereafter' is emotionally rich & so are its primary characters. You feel the pain of the three people, you are engrossed in their journey & eventually, you are moved. This is an Astonishing tale, that evokes genuine emotions within you. Directed remarkably by Eastwood & sensitively Written by Peter Morgan, 'Hereafter' is also well captured by Cinematographer Tom Stern & Incredibly Acted by Matt Damon, Bryce Dallas Howard & Cècile de France. I don't see any reason why you shouldn't watch this film. 'Hereafter' awaits you.
