STORY SYNOPSIS
When George and her colleagues get a new boss whose focus is on moving souls quickly and enjoying life without consequences, the team begins to break the strict reaper rules. While her friends fall victim to their desires for money, success, and fame, George breaks another rule by revealing her true identity to her living family. As the reapers struggle with their roles on Earth, they each find that death can be just as complicated as life. Through its strong storyline, Dead Like Me delves into the intricate mythology and dark comedy created by the TV series and appeals to the show’s legions of fans as well as those new to the world of the reapers.

 Dead like us, after that June 8, 2010
Seibel Arnaud
This movie is the worst atrocity which we can make for this mythical series.
It is a shame from the beginning to the end. Sarah Wynter is grotesque.
This movie is a massacre!! They do not respect the history of the show!!
In the series, when George wants to reveal she's alive, she forgets quite the parts of her life which she wishes to reveal. It is sad!and her memory of this moment is gone forever.
There, we wonder that the scriptwriters had an idea.
This movie is simply an insult about which we do not know for whom it addresses, nor where they really want to come there.
Finally, me, I know! They made worse than Alias and X-files.
Does Not Compare At All to the Fantastic Series June 1, 2010
Mac G (NC, USA)
The series was simply fantastic, one of the best things on TV, ever. Clever, smart, with well-developed, deep characters. Fans hoping for more closure (the last episode of season 2 actually did an OK job of giving some closure) will leave this feeling sadly disappointed. The characters in this movie have extremely little in common with their counterparts in seasons 1 and 2. They're like poor caricatures of their former selves. It really went against everything that was built up in the previous two seasons of the series. Actions and decisions just were totally inconsistent with the characters. I actually can't believe that the original writers came up with this. If I wasn't such a fan of the series, there's no way I would have watched this entire movie. And I should add that the whole time I was wishing that I'd never started watching it, and did not know of its existence. It is THAT bad. Really.

Hilander Man (NC USA)
Not high on the list of movies. However, if you are interested in a view of the afterlife ,in this case for fun and thought provoking, then this will be of help. The TV series was quite interesting but ended with a rather sudden heart stoppage. This movie at least takes it to the end of it's cycle and gives it some closure. It was good to also see where the cast members have gone since the TV series and encouraged me to look them up online. On a rating of 1-5, I guess I would give it a 3.75. Not great, but good entertainment for a rainy inside day.
Continuation-close May 24, 2010
Michael A. Autin (Central Valley, Ca United States)
This movie would have been better if they had done maybe 3 movies instead of one. It closes the book on a few living characters, leaves many questions on the Reapers, and hurries the resolution of their dilemma much too quickly and that is what opens the questions...
Beyond that this movie is for the most part watchable. The replacement of Daisy Adair is a little incongruous and doesn't work very well, and the sudden seduction of tough police woman lacks time to develop or the back story to ease it's affect.
Reggie has the best conclusion of this part of her life, George seems to have regressed instead of progressed and that would open more questions... but in the time they had it is a decent movie.
I found this a pleasant surprise(considering I got it by accident from Amazon) May 12, 2010

Hey. This is one of those stories that is somewhat like others you have already seen on TV. For whats its worth, there are the usual characters. There's the person who seems to want something they cant have. Then there's the one who has what they need but needs something else. The other people are there along for the ride, and then throw in some good plot, a cool amount of special effects, and keep the pace going so you don't lose the audience. This is actually a funny story that is a made for cable TV production, so most of us non-cable subscribers would usually not even bother watching some of these type of genre.
The main character is a twentyish something female, who had a accident that left her with the option of working for Death himself. As a survivor of accidents/suicide/deaths, the other characters are doing a job of helping people along in their own deaths. It doesnt sound like much of a story, but once you see one of the episodes, you are either: "Hooked", or will fast forward(uh, I mean click to the main menu) and watch the extras. I would recommend this one for people who are already into (not soap operas , or reality tv, or made for tv movies) but the other crowd that enjoys mainstream movies with-out the huge budget, mainstream actors, and general 'predictability' that goes along with the usual 'fodder' of holly-would. So, pick this one up for under , oh, 14-15 bucks. You would do worse by continueing watching them evening attempts at entertainment on 'prime-time tele.
