    Slightly better than it's predecessor, White Noise The Light has very little in common with it's older sibling. This time the film is more concerned with being exciting, creepy and disturbing. It mostly pays off. More of a super-hero movie, where Fillion can sense who is about to...( read more) die. The film has a wonderful twist and plays on the idea of meddling in matters of fate. Unfortunately, there are just too many small moments of cheap/corniness. Had it not been made as a sequel to White Noise, it could have been more free to do it's own thing and have it's own style.

    Standard quasi-psychological paranormal horror about being able to foresee death. Decent story and decently acted, though not particularly scary or memorable. Okay.

    Very derivative but I quite like the piano fall scene... and Katee Sackhoff of course.

    lots of potential. one heart jolting make ya jump moment and alot of general creepiness (could've been creepier) this could've been a decent horror but it was not to be. anyway, fucking the ending of this film was way too rushed and lacking. that's why i only gave it 2 an a half ...( read more)stars. it took a complete nosedive in the last 5 - 10 minutes. anyone notice the bird in it who played the doctor in the stargate series also?

    The family man Abe Dale is having lunch with his wife and son in a restaurant, when a man kills them in front of Abe and shots himself in the mouth. A couple of days later, the grieving Abe misses his family and commits suicide ingesting many pills at home, but is rescued by his ...( read more)friend Marty Bloom and saved by the doctors. His Near Death Experience makes him see white light in some people and to hear Electronic Voice Phenomena, i.e., manifestations of voices of ghosts or spirits through static on electronic devices. Sooner he discovers that the white light means that the person is going to die, and Abe saves three lives including his nurse Sherry Clarke. While watching to a video recorded by his son, Abe finds that the killer had save the lives of his wife and son three days before the murder. He investigates the incident and finds that when you save, you must kill; otherwise many innocents will die three days later. Nathan managed to pull off this film, and it's a shame Michael couldn't. You really felt for Nathan's character when his wife and child died, and he made his character believable. A normal man's family dies, and he suddenly starts seeing things. It was emotional, keeps you entertained, has good scares, and you actually care about the characters and what will happen to them.

    Good I suppose, it made me think at times, but I wasn't blown away or anything. I found it interesting, and that's enough for me to give it three stars.

    I don't know how to rate this film: the main character has the near death experience when he sees his late wife and child, and although he now knows that people become ghosts when they die and go to better place, he nevertheless goes around and saves people from going to this "be...( read more)tter place". ???

    besides the absurdity of his actions, the whole movie is based on christian religion that has, like, a major lack in style in elegance, so, in my opinion they should have chosen some other spiritual guidance for basis of the movie.

    Abe's wife and child are randomly killed in a shooting. Attempting to take his life following their deaths, he is brought back from the dead. Since then, Abe begins to see shimmers of bright light surrounding those that are about to die.
    Realisng that he now has the power to sto...( read more)p people from dying, he begins to help others. However sometimes people are supposed to die.
    Nathan Fillion stars as Abe and, as he usually is, is good in his role. The story, not great by any means, was suprisingly good.
    'White Noise: The Light' did have its flaws and some of the effects were questionable, but overall it was an enjoyable watch with a numbers of jumps to keep you alert!

    Two of my pet peeves having to do with this site is that of someone who rates movies that they have not seen & others who recommend movies that they did not like! Like that wench, 'clairebandaids', did above.

    "It seems to take him rather a lot of the film to figure out pieces of the plot that have been spelled out in pre-school terms. Not that the plot really added up to anything that made complete sense anyway. Rather inexplicably, the ending almost turned into Don't Look Now, but then didn't. I would still highly recommend this film. Nathan gets his shirt off."

    Go rent a fucking porno if you want to look at ppl naked, stupid bitch!
