  1. The third film, After the Life, much like "On the Run," mixes a hard-edged, relentless and stripped-down crime tale with a compassionate overview.

    It certainly wraps the trilogy on a very powerful, emotionally draining note. It's refreshing to see the precision and audacity with which Belvaux and his excellent cast succeed in imbuing the increasingly familiar story with completely new angles, insights and nuances.
  3. At its most contemplative, The Trilogy is a stirring and shrewd portrait of lives lived in oblivious parallel. [Note: From a review of the entire trilogy.]

    Belvaux is no Douglas Sirk, but the film is an admirable, if uneven, conclusion to an audacious project.

    Forget about Inarritu's gimmicks, forget about Soderberg's classy shallowness and above all, forget about that oscar-winning crashing disaster. This trilogy is the real deal, Rashomon and Short Cuts rolled into one. You don't like it? It's simple: you don't deserve it. Expand
