About this movie

From Academy Award winning director Peter Jackson comes the extraordinary story about one girl's life, and everything that came after. When 14-year-old Susie Salmon was murdered, she left her unfinished life behind. But now from her place in a strange but beautiful in-between world, she must help her father catch her killer and protect her family before she can finally move on. Filled with thrilling suspense, hope and the redeeming power of love, it's "One of the best films of the year. Incredibly powerful." -- Harry Knowles, Ain't it Cool News

Stay away. It's dull, you could drive a bus through some of the plot holes, and you'll end up feeling completely unsatisfied with the whole experience.

It wasn't so much the pacing of this film but the content I was displeased with. But I must give it credit for not being another Hollywood-happy-ending-to-make-you feel-less-jaded-about-the world farce.

i watched this a third time!! one of my favourites. I really loved the way the movie displayed purgatory in a creative/surreal way. So intense and emotional and tearfully touching in some scenes due to its beauty. Simply amazing
