This was a real surprise...a thoughtful, not-hokey examination of what happens after we die. Three disparate people have close brushes with death which sends them on a quest. They eventually end up in London at the same time.
The film started with an incredibly realistic re-creation of the 2005 tsunami in Thailand. MD was subdued, likable. Ms deFrance credible as a woman who undergoes a life-changing experience. And they even managed to throw in a nascent love interest.
Eastwood's career has been spotty but in recent years he's hit a tone in his films that speaks of a deeper intelligence than I formerly gave him credit for. This was engaging and will stick with me.
