Ishara L There honestly is nothing to remark on the way this is shot. It flows incredibly naturally and there's not a single shot that is wasted. It has the perfect runtime and the story beats are on point. The two child actors, combined with the solid filmmaking makes this a movie that works really well. With a simple, but poignant story of family, it shows you the experience through the eyes of the children and how they deal with their own problems and what they find important. Especially Ali is a very soulful character, putting his sister in the first place even if it means he has to suffer the consequences of those actions. Really delightful. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/19/25 Full Review Mehmet G A good film, one that has a moral value. It has a quite different story. It is not an arthouse film, nor a film depending on Hollywood like cinematographic and editing effects. Perfect for those looking for an alternative. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 11/20/24 Full Review Micah H Proof that a masterpiece doesn’t need an epic scale and big explosions. One can be so simple as two children and a missing pair of shoes. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/05/24 Full Review Sheila B Stunningly beautiful story of sibling love, hope and preserance. Watch this one with your brothers and sisters. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/08/24 Full Review Leaburn O A couple of kids with angelic features make this really heartwarming. A very beautiful tale from Iran very much akin to Wajda. Beautiful stuff, very sweet, loving and tender. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 07/31/23 Full Review Yash B "Children of Heaven" features a simple enough premise that comes together in the final act. The movie really does capture the innocence of being a child and I think the likability of the two main siblings is why the movie ends up working. A lot of is it a slow-paced film that leads up to an exciting and memorable sequence near the end which does lead to the conclusion of the film. I felt like the movie could have ended with one more scene I had imagined but was pretty much guaranteed to happen. Instead, I felt it ended a bit abruptly and missed an opportunity to hit a feel-good home run. Nonetheless, this is a sweet little movie with a lot of heart and good messages that make the story and characters easy to root for.
