Wordiezett So much average
CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
Matylda Swan It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.
Lela The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.
adonis98-743-186503 A group of medical researchers discover a way to bring dead patients back to life. The Lazarus Effect suffers from a boring plot and characters that has been done more than 10 times every year it's not scary or even interesting after a while the only good thing about it it's without a doubt Olivia Wilde as Zoe the girl who came back from the dead and started killing her friends. This is the first time that i ever watched a horror film with some potential but the writing is just so mediocre and the characters are so boring that it ruins the whole experience that it makes you want to see every single one of them get killed by her at times it doesn't make sense also especially the ending when Zoe brings back Frank for some unknown reason i would like to see a part 2 but only if it was interesting and the characters were written better. I will give The Lazarus Effect a 5.5/10.
Sjalka Rjadottir A strange substance that (for all intents and purposes) increases brain activity and allows its user supernatural abilities.Hmm - now that sounds familiar......last seen in the movie "Lucy"(2014). The only difference being that Lucy did not loose her mind. (well, it was classified action and not horror) Aside from this little thing - the movie has a very small cast and .. in my opinion .. is fairly well acted. Was the scary horror stuff toned down a little - the entire film may have been a nice little Doctor Who episode with "the monster of the week".So - to sum it all up... i just watched a not really scary version of Lucy without Scarlet Johanson and a lot less action. The pacing was alright but the story itself had more holes than Swiss cheese.A 4/10 is all i am willing to give it. It is a movie that is well below average.
The Couchpotatoes The Lazarus Effect is one of those movies that you watch without any passion or interest for it. You know you saw worse movies that you hated, but you also know that you saw way better movies then this one. It's just an average movie that you watch once and then forget about it. The cast isn't that bad actually. All the actors did their job well but they won't be remembered for their role in The Lazarus Effect. The story is just not good enough to make it interesting. If you want to watch a movie with the same concept as this one then you should watch "Flatliners" from 1990. That one is way better then this one. In The Lazarus Effect there is just a thing missing. It could have been much better but unfortunately it isn't.
eng-bmoradi This movie is amazing , Many ideas are not original , Many are cliché but still this was totally a very good movie . I rated it 8 because from start to finish it was entertaining I really don't understand what's wrong with people Is it a new wave of mentally disordered people who can't tell between a good and a bad movie ? This movie was a very good horror movie , simple as that , It has jump scares , The story has it's own depth , The ending could have been better but still it had a last surprise Again , There is something seriously wrong with the people who rated this less than 6 . This movie is very underrated ,
