Doesn't Prove Anything submitted by AprilCDB on June 19, 2015, 2:06pm I nearly cancelled my request on this movie after reading the book, but decided to go ahead with watching the movie anyway. The movie is only slightly better than the book. Just because parents aren't aware of their child being exposed to something, doesn't mean the child hasn't experienced it and doesn't prove the existence of something when the child can describe it in detail. My child has never been exposed to Superman, that I know of, yet he knows all about Superman. Doesn't mean Superman is real.

Heaven Is For Real submitted by SBNB on June 30, 2015, 10:04pm The movie was entertaining. Seeing the movie made me want to read the book. Now having finished both, I have to say that the book was better. The movie changed things (as movies often do) to create more drama, but I prefer the original story.

It was Good submitted by chioma on June 18, 2016, 9:49am The movie was good, but honestly, the book was WAY better. The movie (of course) changed and added many aspects to the book into the movie. It was still good though, but the book is truly much more amazing!

Good submitted by tshish on July 9, 2016, 10:24pm Movie is entertaining. I thought it complimented the book. I was glad it left out the revelations part, as I wanted not to frighten my younger kids.
