Hey what's up guys
Today I'll show you a science-fiction film: "Flatliners"
Spoiler ahead, watch out and take care
The movie begins where a young woman, "Courtney", is joyfully driving with her younger sister
Unfortunately, Courtney gets distracted, causing their car to accidentally crash into the river
Courtney survives the accident; but unfortunately, her younger sister dies
Nine years later, Courtney became a medical student, and now works as a medical intern in a hospital
Her patient asks her if she ever lost someone, leaving her disturbed
In the other room, her colleagues, "Ray" and "Marlo",
are treating a patient who has been in an accident
Ray is one of the most excellent medical interns, while Marlo is the competitive one
That night, Courtney is researching about the afterlife in the library
Apparently, she becomes obsessed with the afterlife, after the death of her sister
She then plans to access the afterlife through a procedure, called "flatlining"
The procedure will stop her heart, giving her a brief moment of near-death experience
On the other side, she notices another medical student, "Sophia",
who is crying because she is having a hard time studying, and her mother pressures her to succeed
Courtney approaches her, and proceeds to console her from her problems
Courtney then invites Sophia to join her in her extracurricular project;
so they can spend time together
The following day, Courtney also invites her other colleague, "Jamie", to join her in the project
She instructs Jamie to sneak to the secret hospital facility in the basement later at night
Jamie misunderstands her invitation;
and he believes that she invites him to have a hormone moment in the basement
He then gets excited; and he accepts her invitation
Night comes, the three meet in the basement
Courtney then reveals her plan to experiment with the afterlife
She instructs the two to stop her heart using the defibrillator, and revive her after sixty seconds
She also tells the two to document her brain activity, when her heart stops
Jamie then begins the procedure to stop Courtney's heart
As it finally stops, Courtney is able to have a perception outside of her body,
as if she becomes a spirit
She is able to perceive the things in the hospital;
and her perception begins to roam around the city
After sixty seconds, Jamie and Sophia frantically revive her; but they fail to do so
Sophia then calls Ray's assistant
Ray then rushes to the basement; and Marlo sees him
Ray eventually arrives in the basement, and begins to revive Courtney
During her revival, Courtney's perception of reality shatters, as if a force is sucking it
She then begins to exist in a magical cosmic world
In a few moments, Ray manages to revive her;
so she gets back to the real world, instinctively gasping for breath
Marlo also arrives in the basement, witnessing Courtney's secret experiment
At night, Courtney shares her magical near-death experience
The group then checks her brain scan during that time;
and they find certain parts of her brain activated during her near-death experience
The group gets fascinated by the results
but Ray thinks that their experiment is not a good idea
The following day, the experiment result becomes more apparent,
as Courtney displays unusual behavior
She suddenly becomes so energetic to bake bread for the whole class
She also has the capacity to recall her memories vividly
During the class, she is able to answer difficult questions, making the professor impressed
At night, Courtney plays the piano, despite not playing it for years
The group then falls into amazement after witnessing it,
and thinks that her brain gets enhanced after flatlining
Courtney soon comes into her home alone;
and she has a vision of a figure in the tub, scaring the shit out of her
After seeing the flatlining's result,
Jamie decides to undergo the flatlining procedure for two minutes
During that time, Jamie sees himself riding a motorcycle through the city with his ex-girlfriend
They ride through the streets, and find the city completely desolate
His ex-girlfriend soon disappears; and the group revives him
After that, the group has a party, where Jamie and Courtney turn wild
The two have the same energy; and they begin to destroy the house wall
After that, they share a passionate tongue massage
Suddenly, hail begins to fall outside
So they run outside to play with the ice
There, Marlo shares to Ray that she wants to be flatlined next
After the party, Courtney asks Jamie if he experienced something disturbing during his flatline
Jamie denies it, saying everything feels amazing during that time
The following day, Jamie displays an improved capacity to recommend medications to a patient
Marlo then observes the flatline gives him improved intuition in the present,
while it gives Courtney enhanced capacity to recall past memories
Right then, Jamie looks at the window,
and sees a vision of his ex-girlfriend; but the vision soon disappears
At night, the group prepares for Marlo's flatline procedure
But Sophia cannot arrive in time, since her mother disallows her from going out
The group proceeds to the procedure, putting Marlo in a flatline moment
During that time, she returns to her competitive past,
where she rides a horse, plays the violin, and joins a swimming competition
To her surprise, she sees a murderer written in the pool; and jellyfish appears around her
She suddenly recalls her former patient, who died under her care
She then appears in a dark place, together with the patient's dead body
That moment, the group finally revives her; and she's back to reality
The group brings Marlo to the rooftop,
where they comfort her since she appears to be sick after the flatline
Sophia arrives, wanting to undergo flatlining
Ray suggests that they should stop doing the experiment
But Sophia insists that she needs academic advantage to please her mother
The group then allows her requests; and they go back to the basement to do the procedure
During Sophia's flatline moment, she goes back to her past,
when her classmate achieves a higher grade than her
She then leaks her classmate's private photos, causing her classmate to suffer in shame
After that, the group finally revives her and rushes out of the basement,
as the cleaners are heading there
They then drive to a public party, where Courtney sees a vision of her sister walking in the party
She then follows her sister, until they reach the parking lot
Suddenly, her perception of the world changes, as her surroundings turn into a desolate place
She then sees their crashed car; and she takes a peek inside, where she sees her sister drowning
Her sister suddenly moves, scaring her off, which pushes her back to reality
Meanwhile, the flatline procedure causes Sophia to build up more hormones
She then invites Jamie to her house, where they share a wild moment
Her mother catches them doing their smelly business
So she scolds Sophia; but she says to her mother that she will be moving out of their house
In the meantime, Ray escorts Marlo back to her home
They have a conversation where Marlo shares the story of her patient,
who died after the sting of jellyfish
Marlo confesses that she is partly responsible for the patient's death
It turns out, she fails to know the patient's medical background,
making her give medication to the patient that leads to the patient's death
The guilt from that mistake has haunted her ever since
So Ray consoles her with his muscles; and they begin to kiss
That night, Jamie comes home to his boat, where he sees a vision of his ex-girlfriend
He then hears a sound of a baby crying; so he comes to check the storage
There, he sees a figure of a baby under a cloth; but finds nothing inside after he checks it
He calls Courtney, who is also freaking out, after seeing her sister earlier
He then rushes to Courtney's home
Courtney's hallucination about her sister continues at her home
So she creates a video, revealing her hallucinations
She then confesses she did the flatline experiment,
because she misses her sister, and not because of science
At that moment, something strange calls her attention
She then follows it; and she has a vision of her sister furiously drawing on the table
She becomes completely scared, making her run away to the emergency stairs
But the visions keep chasing her, until she falls to the stairs, leading to her death
The following day, the professor calls the group, and informs them about Courtney's death
He then asks them if they know what's going on with her
But they refuse to tell the professor anything,
since revealing their experiment might get them expelled
They then plan to get the experiment's documents from Courtney's apartment,
to avoid revealing their secret experiment
At night, Jamie manages to get Courtney's computer and notes, but fails to find her phone
So Marlo comes to the morgue to find it
She eventually gets the phone, and checks Courtney's body
That time, her visions begin haunting her
The lights turn off; and she proceeds to wander around,
until she finds her former patient, scaring her off
Meanwhile, Jamie has a vision of his ex-girlfriend again
He gets completely scared, making him run away out of the boat like a baby
But the vision chases him outside, and stabs him in the hand
The group soon meetups to watch Courtney's video before her death
They then witness Courtney's final moment, where she begins having visions of her sister
So the group wonders if their visions are real, or if they are just hallucinations
Marlo suggests that their past sins are haunting them
So Jamie and Sophia confess their past sin
Jamie forced her ex-girlfriend to abort their baby;
and he proceeded to leave her alone during her pregnancy
Meanwhile, Sophia confesses
she hacked the computer of her classmate and revealed her classmate's private photos
But both the ex-girlfriend and the classmate are still alive
Ray then insists that they are only hallucinating because of their guilt,
since they cannot be haunted by someone who is still alive
During a discussion, Sophia suddenly sees a vision of herself,
having a romantic moment in the hospital monitor
But in reality, the monitor only displays a brain scan
It is then revealed that their visions are just hallucinations,
which are the product of their guilt
Sophia proceeds to walk out of the class and rides the elevator, where she hallucinates again
The elevator traps her; and it brings her to the highest floor
To her surprise, the elevator brings her to an old classroom,
where her classmate suddenly appears, scaring her out of her shit
At that moment, her hallucination stops; and she comes back to reality
The following day, Ray confronts Marlo,
after learning that her patient's autopsy report is manipulated
Marlo then reveals she changed the autopsy report, to keep her mistake a secret
She says she did it to protect her medical career
Ray insists that she must tell the dean about her mistake, and fix the autopsy result
But Marlo is firm on her decision to keep it a secret, since she fears that it might end her career
This makes Ray utter that she does not deserve to be a doctor
Meanwhile, Sophia visits her former classmate, to seek an apology for her mistake
She confesses to her classmate that she is the one, who leaked her photo
Her classmate becomes angry at first; but she eventually forgives Sophia
Jamie calls Marlo, informing her that they should take responsibility for their mistakes
In that way, they would overcome the guilt which haunts them,
possibly saving them from hallucinations
Jamie rides to his ex-girlfriend's house, and soon finds her
To his surprise, his ex-girlfriend keeps their baby,
as he sees that their baby is finally now grown up
Jamie then admits to her mistakes, and apologizes for them
He then promises to her that he will help them from now on
Later, Marlo is reading about the afterlife, when she has some visions again
She appears back to the desolate place again, together with her patient's dead body
Completely frustrated from her hallucinations,
she decides to fix herself, by doing the flatline procedure alone
In the hospital, Ray receives a text from her,
saying she needs to make the hallucinations stop, making him worry
He then calls Sophia and Jamie, informing them that they need to find Marlo
He eventually finds Marlo's car in the hospital; so he figures out that she must be in the basement
So he informs Jamie to immediately head to the hospital
Ray and Sophia soon arrive in the basement, finding Marlo unconscious
It seems that she already did the flatline procedure to herself
Jamie also arrives there; and they proceed to revive her
But they are having difficulty, as her body fails to respond
Meanwhile, Marlo sees herself in a hospital ward, where a mysterious force attacks her
The force then begins drowning her in the tub
The revival procedure fails to work, making the three completely hopeless
But Ray figures out another procedure to revive her
He injects a substance into her body, and informs her that he needs her
Marlo survives the drowning from the tub; but she still remains in the hospital ward
The force suddenly sucks everything back; and she tries to fight back against it
During her struggle, Courtney appears,
and advises her to forgive herself for the mistake she committed
Ray uses the defibrillator on Marlo, finally reviving her
She then regains consciousness, and comes back to reality
After her successful revival, the group joyfully celebrates
Jamie informs Ray that he decides to stay and be a doctor in the town,
rather than pursuing his dream to be a doctor in L.A;
so he can give care to his ex-girlfriend and their child
Soon after, Marlo informs the dean about the autopsy, ultimately fixing her mistakes
The dean then puts her on probation
After that, she meets up with Ray, who brings Courtney's laptop to the bridge
They then throw the laptop into the river; so no one will ever try the experiment
At night, the group reunites in the pub,
where they hear someone playing the same song Courtney played
In the end, the group performs cheers dedicated to their late friend, Courtney
