La fiesta del más allá

Athough similar topics been addressed,someone dies & has unfinished business on earth.. Despite it being obviously clichéd,it was rather enjoyable & one I'd recommend seeing.

Decent cast,music & cinematography too.

You made a grown 45yo man cry...are you happy now?

Didn't expect much, thought it would be just some kind of comedy, but somehow it got to me. Not really a memorable movie, but the way the story is played out was very emotional. In a good way, that is.

Well I'm not gonna lie, Justice is a beauty.

Another original Netflix movie that featured a social media celebrity. Just like He's All That, right off the first scene I already wanted to turn off the screen. It's like the way characters party and interact with each other felt fake and cringe.

However, when the premise kickstarted, I was actually surprised that this movie wasn't completely unbearable. Although not a new concept, the movie still delivered with fairly impactful scenes with good hearts and redemptions. Also, Victoria Justice was not bad at all. She portrayed her character pretty well, gave some decent emotions, and most importantly wasn't annoying.

Although the story was interesting, I did not like the tone. The cast of the movie reflected the less serious tone. I hated this because the content of the story itself should have been serious and contemplating. I didn't really feel most of the emotions and impact of the themes at the end.

Also, not all of the parts of the story worked. The one with the mother in particular was very flat and had inadequate development.

Overall, decent story and acting but filled with unmatched tone. 6/10.

I liked it! It wasn't as good as the trailer made it seem but it was good!! Worth Watching for sure!

Granted, as I sat down to watch the 2021 movie "Afterlife of the Party", I wasn't really expecting it to be a movie that would prove all that entertaining to me. Why? Well, solely because the movie's cover/poster looked like something that would appeal to a whole different audience group. But then I read the movie's synopsis, and figured I would give the movie a chance.

And I am glad that I did, because writer Carrie Freedle actually managed to write a rather enjoyable script and storyline here. And "Afterlife of the Party" is the type of movie that puts a smile on your lips and makes you feel good. Yeah, there was definitely some good and positive energies coming from this movie. So thumbs up to director Stephen Herek for this accomplishment.

Sure, the storyline was a bit cheesy if you step back and take a look at it. But it actually made for proper and good entertainment in my book. And I was surprised to find that this wasn't a movie that was specifically aiming at a female audience.

The acting in the movie was good, and not being familiar with neither Victoria Justice or Midori Francis, I must say that I definitely think they were well-cast for their respective roles, and they put on a good performances and brought their characters to life on the screen in very convicing ways.

If you have the opportunity to sit down and watch "Afterlife of the Party", you should definitely do so, because this is a heartfelt movie. I was genuinely entertained by this movie, and it is one that I can warmly recommend you watch.

My rating of "Afterlife of the Party" lands on a six out of ten stars.
