This is a hard movie to rate now. I am not a big fan of...let's refer to them as, "holiday romance movies"; preferring the Christmas Classics that became classics because of their Christmas magic. But this one looked like it was worth watching because of the fantasy aspects of the storyline. I was enjoying it (yes, it's not Oscar material...big deal), then BAM !!!!! who the hell came up wih that ending? I have to agree with one of the other reviewers, that the writer is the one who needs to be thrown under the bus. What a last minute disappointment, spoiled the whole movie.
The writing in this movie was not perfect to say the least but the good parts of it is worth watching. I love that the characters grow and get better, I love how it has faith. This movie had good acting and good direction, only judgment that the writing could've been more real to life but it was fun and that's what movies are for, for us to enjoy ourselves, so I recommend this movie. It's a solid seven because it created love emotions and installed faith in me and it helped me in my own personal life. Please remember to have an open mind when watching this movie, it's more real to life than you may think.
A typical straight to Netflix movie but I did quite enjoy this movie over the Christmas build up. The plot was different and the lead characters were likable. The angel in heaven who helps Sarah is a great character and I liked the entry to heaven concept with the iPad.The main male character was likable and his moments with Sarah added some humour. The young boy is great to watch on screen too. The ending was a bit confusing though in that it isn't quite logical to the whole story line but who cares!
A good movie to watch during the day in the lead up to Christmas with a cuppa and a few biscuits

BEWARE OF FALSE REVIEWS & REVIEWERS. SOME REVIEWERS HAVE ONLY ONE REVIEW TO THEIR NAME. NOW WHEN ITS A POSITIVE REVIEW THAT TELLS ME THEY WERE INVOLVED WITH THE MOVIE. IF ITS A NEGATIVE REVIEW THEN THEY MIGHT HAVE A GRUDGE AGAINST THE FILM . I HAVE REVIEWED OVER 200 HOLIDAY FILMS. I HAVE NO AGENDA.
A good Samaritan is killed before Christmas and is granted the chance to return to Earth to help a needy soul. The needy soul we find out is her ex-boyfriend who she broke up with on Christmas Eve a year prior to her own passing.
The film quickly establishes its rules and you buy into it however the ending makes zero sense. This harms the movie and it ending makes the whole movie a failure. Had it stayed true to its rules then the film would have been one of the better television films of the past few years.

Many to say but it is far to be a reasonable film. First, it is very, very, very cheesy. Second - it is a huge mess of cliches, bad used, political correct and very childish. Not the last, it can not convince, be poetic, be romance or be eulogy of love.
But three good points are nice tools for not consider see it as waste of time >
