Heaven Sent

This film is surprising for the acting talent displayed. The three lead characters as well as the two supporting male characters are clearly talented. Mallory reminds me of the fun of watching Shirley Temple. No singing involved, but she is genuine and brings the same childlike glee to her acting. Christian Kane does very well as a rough edged creative type whose game has lost some of its polish over the years. Marley Shelton is great at acting both hot and cold in her relationships, a struggle for many modern business women. I liked her character more and more throughout the film, and her heart is the true focus of the film. Ernie Hudson was pitch perfect in his delivery, even though his role was relatively small . Sean Miller is decent, although the role written for him was somewhat two- dimensional and definitely predictable.

Yes, the script is formulaic. Classic conflicts arise. You may even guess some of the twists in the plot. But the movie gives you the sense that it needs to be watched. Hopefully it will give some couples new hope and help them to avoid the devastation of divorce if they pay attention to the film's lessons. If not, they'll find out the hard way, which we see demonstrated within the film. But the movie will serve as good medicine for those who will hear the message and bring more happiness to them and their children. Change like that would truly be "Heaven Sent."

I only rate about 10% of the movies a 10 and this one gets it. We have a fantasy story with a bit of a surprise at the end. Story keeps you engaged until the end. The story allows for some great humor and emotion. Such as the divorce papers never getting signed. Loved the mirror scenes. We have 3 main characters with no real distractions. Christian Kane plays the husband Billy, Marley Shelton plays the wife Maire and and the little girl Taylor is adorable. The Billy character really made the story. It was played with some real emotion and was not boring. Maire is well done and of course the little girl was adorable. No boring parts just a good fun story. I would enjoy watching again.

This movie is great from beginning to end. It so nicely features the Pearl Street Mall of Boulder.

You must watch it at least twice to fully understand the story line. The early scene of the movie where, wedding vows are visually presented, is a nice plus since the movie is really all about marriage.

You will gain a greater appreciation for love, marriage and family by watching this movie.

I agree with others that you will fall in love with the eight year old angel in the movie.

Yes, I know it ticks all the boxes, formulaic, tick, overly sentimental, tick, even a bit manipulative, tick, and yet.... You can't help but be charmed by the story, can't help but fall in love with that little blonde angel, coming down to earth to help a couple fall in love again. I honestly wish Hollywood made more movies like this, a beautifully sweet little movie that all the family can enjoy, devoid of profanity, pointless sexual references or violence etc. I fell in love with this movie, with the beautiful story and the sassy little blonde angel. I couldn't help but smile a huge grin at some of the charming dialogue from that little girl. I found myself recollecting it again the following day and smiling all over again. There are very few movies I can say that about. I won't spoil it for you by telling specifics or how it ends, but it's a beautiful ending to a beautiful story. Maybe I'm getting overly sentimental in my old age, but I loved it and I think you will to.

So nice and refreshing to see a nice wholesome family movie. Christian Kane is wonderful in this roll. The whole cast is great and the little girl is just so cute. Marley Shannon is awesome also.

I recommend watching this movie any time of the year. You won't be disappointed. The story is a nice reminder of love and family.
