I think the move starts at a very good pace. We understand the main character has a big issue with death because of his traumas and such. But nothing explains why his mother is negative about everything.
((SPOILER ALERT))
For me, the move becomes a nonsense when his mother for no real reason tries to kill the ghost ex-girlfriend in the cemetery, WHY!? She was not even treating anyone, yet, and then I think we ONLY have that scene with death spirits surrounding the car to make a poster... no explanations too...
After all, it is a movie pretty okay to watch... but could be way better...
59/100
A man, with an unrelenting fear of death, posts an ad stating that he'll pay $30k to anyone who can definitively prove an afterlife. Although tagged as a horror film, it is not ...in fact, there's hardly a scare in it. What it is is a psychological, 'be-careful-what-you-wish-for' exercise detailing the ramifications and the devastation that the answers to some questions can bring. Well written, well acted and, although slower than one may expect, it held my attention completely from start to finish. Good, thought provoking entertainment. -- DrNostromo.com
We Go On (Remastered) – Review
Fear of death is a powerful idea to build a horror film around, and We Go On uses it well. Instead of relying on jump scares, the film builds tension through atmosphere and a lingering sense of unease. It follows a man determined to prove that something exists after death, and his search for evidence slowly leads him into increasingly strange and personal encounters.
The concept is simple but effective, and the tension remains strong throughout. While the pacing is slower than many modern horror films, it allows the atmosphere and mystery to develop naturally.
For viewers who enjoy thoughtful, atmospheric horror rather than constant shocks, We Go On is a solid indie discovery.
