Curious, gentle comedy-drama fantasy. Newly-dead entrants to the next world must choose their most important memory, as this is all they will take with them into eternity. Those who cannot make the choice remain in limbo, helping those who can (it's a bit like the civil service).

Big themes, obviously, but handled with a very light, naturalistic touch; the machinery of the afterlife has a charmingly shambolic feel to it. Initially seems like a series of quiet character studies, before an understatedly moving story develops between two of the staff. Thought-provoking and rather beautiful.

A decent survival drama/thriller as a group of men try to survive a plane crash in the Alaskan wilderness with a pack of Wolves on their trail. Neeson seems to be the flavour of the year at present and does another good job here. The only problem is the story is a little bleak and tries to carry a message about death and the afterlife as well. Which starts fairly subtle before cropping up quite regularly towards the end. It has a very short scene after the credits as well. Reminded me of The Edge as well.

There are some mixed feelings about Resident Evil: Retribution and some have hated the film from W.S. Anderson and the first 10 mins have really annoyed people, but personally, I gave Resident Evil: Retribution a chance.

The opening sequence of the film starts with what happened just after Afterlife had finished, but the opening sequence is running backwards! Yeah I know bizarre, we find Alice in the water and then all hell opens up on the tanker, then just as we get to the point of the last film, it all starts flowing forward at the right speed, very nicely done.
