Highway to Heaven

It is such a heartwarming and beautiful movie! The message was just great! Jill Scott was just amazing in this role. You can just feel she put all her heart and soul into this movie. In such uncertain and difficult times we need more kindness and this is a reminder that everyone can be an angel to those who are struggling in this life.

We need something like this... After touched by an angel and the original highway to heaven... I hope they make this is serious this was really great and Jill Scott was wonderful as the angel Angela.

Jill Scott was great in the show, but the story was bad. Not enough religious background like the original. The story did not add any feeling that Angels walk among us. The story was just - meh. Michael Landon was religious and it showed in his acting and stories. This was like a Hallmark show that Lifetime picked up.

If you were a fan of the original Michael Landon series, you will enjoy this one. Jill Scott is the angel sent to earth to assist a young boy and his father. As typical with these movies, yes, the plot can be predictable but with a movie like this, we do not need mind shattering surprises or twists. I personally want a story I can understand and relate to and an ending that gives me hope and faith in God, people and the world in general. Jill Scott is extremely well suited to this role. She channels a feeling and aura that reminds me of Della Reece which is a huge compliment in a faith based movie.

If you look at the highest scores for this film, you'll notice the reviewers have ONE review in their history. What does that tell you! What we have here is a beloved 80s series that won't fly in 2021. Male lead? No, no, no. White lead? Heaven forbid! In their effort to erase the past, the producers seemed to have forgotten to tell a good story, which is okay because that was never the intention.
