Pretty chill for a remake. Nothing new under the Sun but it was fun to watch the group of wannabe future doctors from the American West Side as their life dream slowly melted.

This film doesn't offer anything innovative and interesting, maybe if it was an original, so be it, but this way it doesn't impress much. While I wasn't bored and the first hour is interesting with medicine and the experiments, the second part with the ghosts is not so interesting. The scares don't work, the atmosphere is nil and the characters don't die, so it's weak in terms of horror. An average film and a pointless remake, but it is watchable. 55%

I don't like new versions of stories that don't add anything extra, but instead simplify the familiar. This is a case in point, because the only interesting contribution for me was the casting of Ellen Page, otherwise nothing. For a while I thought that this wouldn't be a remake but a sequel, and that Kiefer Sutherland would play the same character as in the original and the new heroes would find his Frankensteinian notes, but unfortunately that was hoping for too much. In the end, Sutherland's character was as useless as the film – not downright bad (those unfamiliar with the original will probably be happier), but useless.

The original Flatliners may not have been a party hard in terms of screenwriting either, but we could at least believe the characters in their self-destructive zeal in pursuit of selfish knowledge, aided by the stylized, hyperactive direction of the exuberant Schumacher, who set the entire plot in the deserted gothic interiors and quiet streets of a host city moments before an unspecified apocalypse. In the remake, a bunch of spoiled kids inflict clinical death on each other in order to do better in school, dance, get laid, or BAKE HOMEMADE BREAD! Of course, there’s completely zero interest in the fates of these shallow, characterless creatures, despite the many uninventive jump-scares and horrors, and the film has nothing else to offer. Not even the visuals, which made the original Flatliners into something that at least we remember.

The 2017 film Flatliners simply had no chance to succeed. The horror atmosphere is only there once in a while and it's really more of an agitation. This is also a remake of a good film, which automatically makes it flawed in my eyes. This really was bad and there was no point in making this remake. The film also features Ellen Page, who I find more and more annoying in each film I see her in.
