nims-1975 The Lazarus Project is an Excellent Thriller with excellent acting by Paul Walker. This film is a very underrated film, classed by some viewers as slow, well that's completely rubbish and unfair. It's not slow at all, the films storyline about a man taken away from his wife and daughter and thrown into a haunting care home with people trying to get prison Ben Harvey to forget about his wife and kids and by Ben trying to find out is the place where he should really be, all the haunting flashbacks he gets of his wife and daughter by being on his own and people trying to deceive him etc is what the films about. The film is a very tense film and is just an amazing film. The film also has excellent acting by a great cast and Paul Walkers acting as Ben Garvey is absolutely brilliant.

micke-bystrom One of the more boring movies I've started to watch and wanting to get into. Except the initial action scenes, which are OK but pretty routine, the acting is sub-par. The story is presented in a very boring fashion that doesn't entice you into wanting to learn more.Lines are spoken without emotion when that would be needed and multiple actors deliver without engagement as if it was a school play. Paul Walker (as Ben Garvey) is a tiny bit better than the characters on the side, but by the time the story has developed a bit you are already bored enough to ignore whatever he tried to put in. I think I'll avoid director John Glenn in the future.

Leofwine_draca It's the filming style that I had a hard time with when watching this film. Everything is dark, subdued, and depressing if you think about it. There's little in the way of incident in the story, not much in the way of emotion either, just a dark path for our hero to journey down until he reaches enlightenment at the ending. I'm sure the film-makers had the best intentions but this turns out to be plodding and rather dull I'm afraid.The underrated Paul Walker stars as a low rent career criminal who's blessed with a loving wife and daughter. Unfortunately he's sent to death row where he's given a lethal injection for his part in a triple murder. Later, he wakes up and discovers he's a gardener at a remote institution. Is it a dream? Is this the afterlife? Or is something more sinister going on? Does anyone care? The storyline has potential, I admit that, but everything's so slow and uninteresting that I just didn't (care, that is). Walker puts in a solid performance but his character is underwritten for the most part and solid character actors like Bob Gunton, Lambert Wilson, and Tony Curran are wasted in their roles. I'm afraid THE LAZARUS PROJECT was a bore for me.

matthewworsley Basically everything after his execution was his little girls dream... U don't know it until literally the last 30seconds of the film. It finished with the girl fast asleep on the sofa and she even says I dream of daddy living in the forest etc... So if the whole film had been true she couldn't have possibly known this... It was all in the girls head , she missed her father. Over quite a good film even if the sorry was a little over complicated for a small girls dream. Perhaps not Paul walkers best work (not that he had much if any anyway) but I'd still recommend it. Other character were okay although the implant they had in their arms was never properly explained as to what it was for, come to think of there were quite a few holes in the story...
