Have any one of you seen Heaven is For Real? Surely it is a Christian movie but it's good for everybody though even if some of them aren't Christian. Last night I was watching the beginning of the Heaven Is For Real since I bought it through Itunes as where I always buy movies, shows, apps etc from and I watched maybe about twenty to thirty minutes into it but a little bit over half left to go. Now even started watching that movie for only a small amount of time but it impacted me severely, maybe it is because I am strong Christian but still it impacted me hard because.. Well I am not going to give any spoilers because I don't like spoiling anyone when it comes to movies but have any one of you watched it yet and if so what is your thoughts on it? I only have watched at least 20-30 minutes into Heaven is For Real movie and I was impacted severely is now making me nervous to watch the rest of it because since the beginning of the movie has impacted me fairly hard, I am expecting that further into that movie would impact me even more than it was in the beginning of the movie. Please keep in mind that this is NOT a religious discussion as it is about the movie itself ONLY.
Hadn't heard of the movie, so I just watched the trailer and this doesn't look like my cup of tea - can't believe Greg Kinnear actually starred in this, but I guess a job's a job. It looks like there's a small stream of movies that come out aimed at the Christian market, they're not explicitly religious but they contain not-so-subtle overtones that appeal to that crowd.
I tell you how big impact it had on me. I needed to watch trailer and pictures to remember what the hell was going on in the movie. I only knew i watched it. Next movie for them to make is Santa is for real. I cant say movie is bad. It is OK. Nothing spectacular and maybe a little disappointment according to the title. When little boy say: I lifted up and watched down to my body, that sounds like OOB expirience and you dont need to die to have OOB expirience. So all this heaven is for real is not.
This movie is a true story and is super good. According to the book, which the father wrote on this experience it is very similar in almost every way. Religious or not, it doesn't hurt to have a good movie with good morals to help people improve their lives. Watch the whole movie it brings a good feeling to your heart from a heart warming story.
