funny enough how many have lived in the ignorance that heaven does not exist! What this movie portrays is not even up to a glimpse of what heaven looks like. but there's a lot much one can learn from this film...

I am glad to say that I enjoyed this movie. 99% of most Christian movies are pretty bad. I am a Christian myself and it hurts me to say that but it's true. Anybody who likes movies and is a Christian, knows what I am talking about. It's usually embarrassing. With that being said, this movie was done very well. It had great sound, it was shot well, and the story didn't give you that 'shove' that most Christian movies give you. You know, the movies that think they MUST push the Jesus message so strongly or else it wont be understood. Of course I believe that Jesus is the only way, period, but to make Christians look sad, weak and wimpy is just too much for me to handle when watching it portrayed as so. If people really saw Jesus as He really is, they wouldn't be able to stand in His presence. Plus, He is VERY masculine, not this pretty boy image He is always being portrayed as. Anyway, back to the review. I must say, the movie was a little slow, but, it kept my attention through it all. It worked itself out. If your looking for a major Hollywood blockbuster, of course this isn't it, but you will not be disappointed either. The main events that happen in the movie are very far apart, but this is how the book was written and thats the way it happened according to the book and according to the testimony of the Burpo family. The only real thing that bothered in the movie was the lack of belief and faith the main characters had when they found out what Colton experienced when he was in the hospital. I mean, Todd Burpo, the father, was a pastor. When i saw throughout the movie how much he wavered and didn't know what to believe because it was 'irrational', it was kind of upsetting to me. But i guess thats how he really was in the beginning. Margo Martindale, who played Nancy Rawling, a board member of the church Todd Burpo was pastoring, is probably the character that bugged me the most. She had many issues that many face today in the church, and it obvious shows in her character role. It was a good movie overall, and believe me, i would tell you otherwise even though i am a Christian. I rate movies for what they are, not what they are expected to be according to the Hollywood standards. Go see it. you won't be disappointed.

I took my four year old to see the Pokemon movie. Not only was he able to identify dozens of characters which seemed interchangeable to me, but he could recite their relationships and histories with biblical accuracy. He does the same thing with dinosaurs. The capacity for a preschooler to memorize repetitive information and blurt it out is quite astounding. I can only imagine how much better he would have done if I were in the Pokemon selling business and able to coach him myself, then act surprised that he's able to repeat what I spent his formative years drilling into his head. I could even write a book about it, in collaboration with my wife, claiming that the boy magically learned Pokemon names without any coaching--despite the fact that I'm in the Pokemon business and the ubiquity of Pokemon merchandise around the house. Then we could make a movie about it, and tell all our friends who also work in the Pokemon field to give it 10/10 reviews on IMDb, merely for the fact that it propels Pokemon. All this, proving once again that miracles DO happen. Pikachu bless you all!

Let me first say that as a man of Science, I am not a believer in GOD. With that out of the way, I did not let that keep me from watching this movie. As most of what we watch on television these days is fictitious anyways it shouldn't matter what the subject matter of the movie is as long as it is good. Now in the case of - 'Heaven Is for Real', I found the movie moving and very emotional. No matter what I believe about Heaven, I found the portrayal of the young boy's beliefs in this film very endearing and it almost wants to make you want to believe. I would only hope that as this kid gets older that his beliefs stay that strong, unless that is he decides to of course enlighten himself to reality someday. But if he so wishes to hold on to those beliefs, so be it, at least he will die happy and he will never know that his death was the end of his or her existence. Anyway, whether you believe in GOD or not, I recommend seeing this film.
