Flatliners is a stylish, eerie psychological horror film laced with wit, a movie that thrives on its characters' guilty secrets and succeeds on the strength of the director Joel Schumacher's flair for just this sort of smart, unpretentious entertainment.

Flatliners is a strikingly original, often brilliantly visualized film from director Joel Schumacher and writer Peter Filardi.

It's much to Schumacher's credit that Flatliners, for all of its crazy excess, does not turn into camp.

Flatliners is an original, intelligent thriller, well-directed by Joel Schumacher. I only wish it had been restructured so we didn't need to go through the same crisis so many times.

Flatliners is a heart-stopping, breathtakingly sumptuous haunted house of a movie.
