What a disappointment. As someone who loves unique visuals, great color, I was led to believe in previews that the super visual aspect of this movie would be major part of it - that this was going to be like nothing you ever seen! Well, some parts were, but precious few. What dominated, instead, was one of the dumbest stories and theologically- insulting ones to anyone who has any Biblical knowledge I have ever seen. I have should have known Hollywood would invent their own strange and weird version of heaven and hell. It's sad so many ignorant people buy into whatever Hollywood puts up on a big screen as being Truth, when it's usually the opposite they are seeing and hearing. This movie is a perfect example. Suffice to say, without going into all the details, people are using the Lord's name in vain in heaven; God is mentioned only once and that of a "distant" person "somewhere up there" and the main theology preached is re- incarnation. Secular humanism also is prevalent and in this movie, if you set your mind to it, you can bring your loved ones up from hell to heaven! Wow, who needs Jesus? Not people in the film world, that's for sure. No wonder this film bombed. Even the agnostics and atheists who are our national film critics knew this movie was stupid.

I love this movie because it is truly romantic- it shows that love does not just happen in an instant, or at first glance, but is something that you have to commit to and work at. It's not just 'boys meets girl, stuff happens, they get married and live happily ever after' - Annie and Chris have to deal with real adversity and issues, which are shown through numerous flashbacks throughout the film. (ie- Chris being embarrassed to dance, teaching his daughter about death) You're not supposed to watch this film for the visual effects. They're great, but they're not the point. If you have a short attention span, and are expecting action thrown at you every five seconds, then go watch something else, and don't complain that this film is boring. This film was very simple and very human. If you want inspiration that REAL love exists (and not that stupid teen movie crap), then I highly recommend it.

1st watched 3/14/1999 - 9 out of 10(Dir-Vincent Ward): Excellent heartbreaking story about heaven and hell with very unique special effects and settings. It is one of those movies that bring up much discussion after the final credits.

This movie is rated so low. God, it is so beautifully taken. If you believe in GOd , in love, in reincarnation, in soul mate then you will love it. The movie has a lot of profound and deep meaning. Our realities are so different. When we look at something or someone in a certain way that is how they become for us. May be that is why they say when change the way we look at things , the things we look at changes.Well directed and well played. We do have the ability to create our own realities. If only people could see what life is in heaven and in hell.I wish more and more people watch this masterpiece. Plan to own the DVD of this movie for my private collection

Robin Williams reaches new heights (or lows) of pathos in a movie that actually dares show Heaven and Hell without trying to be funny about it (and without being a horror film). Heaven, the way its portrayed, I could even accept somewhat: everyone gets the one they want. The Hell: some interesting ideas, but many clichés and corny dialog make it even sillier than it already is. This is a so-called "chick flick", no doubt. You know, eternal love, selfless sacrifice, and all that garbage. Clichés left, right, and center. Still, the film can't be accused of being dull: most of the times it maintains one's attention even if for all the wrong reasons. If you're interested in reading my "biographies" of Robin Williams and other Hollywood people, contact me by e-mail.

This movie is regarded as bad by many critics, but I fear it is because they dwell on what's bad, not what's good about the movie. It's hard to say why I love this movie. It just has an inexplicable element to it which I love in movies, the element which, by the end of the movie, makes you want to watch it again, but at the same time not watch it again for the fear that it might diminish your impression of the movie. It made me cry, for no reason, but it was cathartic nevertheless, it's not particularly sad, and for the love of god I never thought that I'd cry watching a movie with Robin Williams and Cuba Gooding Jr. but try to watch the movie with as little prejudice as possible about it or its actors. Do not focus on the details of the movie, just experience it for what it is, and hopefully you'll come out of it refreshed and awakened. And no, I watched this movie completely sober the first time and it was great. The second time was great as well.

Not sure where to start tbh , a truly amazing movie with so many emotions running thru it at all times, family love, grief, wonderment , joy, anger... the cast was couldn't have been bettered and for me this was robin Williams greatest role may he r.i.p . For me this films idea idea of heaven was perfect, being with loved ones and also having the freedom to go anywhere, sorry if my review isn't perfect or written out so well, I'm just writing as best I can.... as to the movie storyline itself... it caught my imagination in such a way, it was and is the perfect love story tainted with death and sorrow but following chris journey you just know that his and their love will win thru and find a happy ever after even if not in life then it makes it worth the journey.... amazing film and one that touched my heart

Enough said.. this movie changed every cell in my body.. 'till that point anyway. I wouldn't recomend if you're not in the mood for some really energy depleting and emotionally heavy movie; not for kids at all; unless very mature. It is a fantastic and visually stunning piece of art. And you'll miss Robin Williams like you never thought you would.
