It could have been a good idea but the execution sucks.
OK, they try to experiment with NDE. Why not. Let's totally forget about the risks, the short and long term effects of the lack of oxygen or even of the CPR and the rest of the resuscitation procedure. It's supposed to be a scientific experiment, with an MRI record of what happens.
But after speaking about it for 10 seconds after the first time, the results of the experiment are never ever talked about again. Instead they just use it as a kind of high. They just get drunk and party right after. Hell, after that they even get drunk and party before.
It could have been saved by a cool haunting story coming after their experience, but it just turns into a stupid cheap guilt trip. Are you serious ? They just all happened to focus on one thing they've done they feel guilty about, that then has physical manifestations able to hurt them, but you just have to forgive yourself, and poof it's gone ?
Such wasted potential. It could have been nice SF, or fantasy, or horror, or maybe go thriller, so many possibilities, and it's garbage.
