Not sure why people view this movie as depressing
The movie throughout is pretty depressing obviously but as a whole it is pretty optimistic. He ends up being reincarnated in a new life. That's damn optimistic if you ask me. If the screen just went black and said the void at the end suggesting that after death there is eternal darkness; that would make the movie as a whole completely depressing. As a viewer watching this and seeing his POV the whole time, getting the chance to live a new life and be a new person is a very happy ending compared to the rest of the movie.
