Trivialidades:

In the end credits, the film is dedicated to someone named "Curtiss". This is the name on the Realtor sign in front of Joe's home.

Goofs:

Continuity: Near the end, when Joe is in the submerged school bus the water is calm and the bubbles from his nose rise gracefully toward the surface. However, the bus is supposed to be in quickly moving rapids at the bottom of a waterfall. Visibility would be near zero, and he should be fighting the current (which he is not).

Quotes:

Miriam: Take down the vacancy that says "Emily's ghost is welcome here". You got to do the hard stuff. Got to clean out closets and get on with your life without her.

Entertaining, But Once You Know The Ending.....

This is mainly a vehicle for Kevin Costner, who dominates the film. There really is no co-star of the movie.

Despite a film that centers around atheists and has a disappointing finish, I still found the film interesting. Knowing the ending, and that it wasn't that good, doesn't inspire me to watch this again unless it's years from now and I've forgotten the story. I'll just remember it was an entertaining movie.

Th middle part of this 104-minute movie is the best and is scary in parts. It's beautifully filmed and looks great on DVD. Also, the profanity is very low. All in all, if you haven't seen it, it's definitely recommended but I would hesitate before buying it. This is just not a film you would watch over and over.
