Surely when tasked with remaking the 1990 horror thriller Flatliners, your only job is to use new cinetechnology to update the spectacle of the afterlife, but in Niels Arden Oplev's moribund morality tale, death is about as out-of-reach an experience as a Red Balloon motorcycle ride or a swim-with-the-jellyfish gift voucher and by the end of the movie it is revealed the afterlife doesn't even bear upon the crises being experienced by this self-centred and super-dull group of med students.
