Jen N The film lurches toward greatness, dazzling the viewer with a spectacular view of heaven that is not only beautiful but also profoundly moving. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 10/17/25 Full Review Chris H THIS IS ONE OF THE SADDEST MOVIES EVER!!!! BUT...it is also one of Robin Williams best performances. I truly hope this is what the afterlife is like. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 10/17/25 Full Review Sunny D "It's not about not understanding. It's about not giving up." I think this movie is fairly underrated. That saying, if you're a big Robin Williams fan, don't go into this movie expecting a comedic performance, but an emotional and hearfelt one instead. As many will say the visuals and cinematic aspects of this film are exremely lush and spectacular, and I love that about it. It deals with some heavy themes of deep love, loss, grief, and redemption, and it explores some intersting concepts regarding the Afterlife. The plot is not particularly deep, but it is relatively classic in structure. Does it drag a litte in some places? -- Yes, a little. Is it a little too sentimental? -- Maybe for some. Is it safe to watch with your family without experiencing horrible shame? -- Sure is! I've probably watched this movie over 20 times in my life, and I definitely think it's worth a watch. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 10/02/25 Full Review Anya S Visual and spiritual schlock. Scenery is various takes on paintings (Monet, Bosch), appearance of children in heaven in their multicultural, multiracial avatars is comical, the dialogue banal, the heavy symphonic music overbearing. A disappointment that does not stand the test of time. Critics got this one right. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 09/02/25 Full Review Cork B I can see why it won awards for visuals, but not necessarily the story. There is an intense, almost over the top soulmates love story here about what happens after you die. Very imaginative, and a great weepie flick. The family story is told mostly through flashbacks and is fairly thin but serviceable. There are elements of various religions in here, but it is not religious. It felt more like what some dude dreamed the afterlife might be like, so I have to ding the worldbuilding a bit. Not sure Williams was the best choice, but he did a decent job. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 08/24/25 Full Review Tao C One of the best movies. This is one of the few movies I can watch again and still feel moved by the story and amazed by the visual effects. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/05/25 Full Review Read all reviews
