Despite an impressive first half, the film don't lives up his expectations .

As someone which had zero expectations towards this film, i found it to be somewhat impressive. It's not a comedy film nowhere near of the level of 'Groundhog Day', arguably the best comedy of that year, but still, it's a enjoyable film.

Of course, it's After Life's premise is very interesting, although with a strong inspiration in 'Ghost'. The first forty minutes and so are excellent and by far the best part in the film. The build-up was so interesting that i forgot the childish tones in the film. But unfortunately, the film goes downhill and it's climax really don't offers enough to the excellent build-up of the film. It's a question of action-reaction: If you creates a great conflict, you expect a great answer.

Also, the cinematography was good, with a very good art design, notably using blue lightning everywhere adding an aureate feeling to it. Robert Downey Jr. don't did so much to the film,though. His acting was very below average. So, this film can be an interesting pass-time. But not recommended, unfortunately. 5.8/10
