I anticipated this film being great. I knew some of the stories they highlighted, but in this film they downplayed much of the 'heaven' portion of the stories.
If you are an atheist, this film will cause you to question 'Is there life after death?', and this film helps answer that.
From a Christian's viewpoint, this film misses the mark. What a wonderful opportunity to delve into how Jesus Christ is integral to people entering heaven! It implies that God is just love, and doesn't mention how He is holy and therefore those that are not known by Jesus or cleansed by His blood can enter. It does give hope in knowing God, but leaves out the need for a Savior aspect.
All said, they will give people pause if they do not believe in life after death, which is a good thing. And, it does offer hope, especially for those that are on the edge and hurting. But, it doesn't tell them who to turn to.
