The Lovely Bones (2009)



A young girl is murdered and watches over her family - and her killer - from purgatory.
Although obviously made with a lot of talents involved the director overdid the phantasmagorical elements on the verge to kitsch.

Maltin **1/2: "Well-made, well-acted adaptation of Alice Sebold's bestseller suffers from overabundant, heavy-handed images of an Edenic afterlife that don't connect with the rest of the film."
