Surprisingly bad

I don't usually write reviews. I don't usually try to tear shows, movies, or books apart. I try really hard to find some good in the production values at the very least...

If a film is made as a fan service to fans of a very well written show, why would they bother to ignore very key elements to the story, or to the inner workings of the characters and reapers.

This film is abysmal. I do not say that lightly. Many points were actually difficult to watch.

Yes I did halfheartedly laugh a few times, it may have been more of an involuntary reaction at best.

Seriously... as a fan of the show and a fan of things which at least have heart behind them; This movie is terrible.

Good but missing two main characters...

Enjoyable, really but regretfully both Rube (Mandy Patinkin)and mostly Daisy (Laura Harris)are missing in this final-curtain-like movie rendition of an otherwise absolutely brilliant TV show.

poor representation of a great show

This movie doesn't even come close to the quality of the show. They didn't get a number of important characters from the original cast, a ton of things in the movie weren't explained, and the plot felt very forced.

Unless you're a fan of the show, this isn't worth watching. And even then, it's a stretch.

one of the worse films I've ever seen

Oh, my goodness.

This movie is simply AWFUL.

No plot, no good actors, no sense at all!

How can a director spend good money on that???

Dead Like Me: Did Not Resusitate

I really liked the series and hoped for a return of the series (for a few more seasons) or a series of movies. This was a big let down.
There are already several good detailed reviews here that all I can add is I agree that this sucked.
