In this film Janie has just had a baby girl & is leaving hospital in a cab which unbeknownst to her is being driven by an angel. The angel, with a smile, states there is some "divine intervention" going on in her situation. Suddenly she yells for him to turn, he does and a truck t-bones them on her side of the car. It seems that the message is that God would happily cause an accident & injury as part of divine intervention. The angel seems to be knowingly causing this accident & seems totally fine with that. Seems pretty warped to me. Angel seems to have no regret/sadness over what is about to occur.

As soon as this started the humour was there. The acting was there. The storyline was there. I loved it straight away.

It wasn't predicable at all - I don't remember thinking it was.

There are only a few reviews on here. Not sure why one reviewer have it one star.

Really Difficult to gauge. But if you're looking to see what others thought. Best just take a look yourself and make a decision. I think you'll love it.

The little actress is so endearing. Can't believe it's her first film. All the acting was believable and although the title is about an Angel. The storyline is about love and faithfulness and patience. A beautiful little film.

I agree in part with "Sick" and I have studied the Bible and been active in my church for several decades. My problem here is not that the plot involves suffering to change Janie's life. That has been a timeless pattern for Christians. My problem is that human writers had the audacity to think they could be as wise as God.

Janie wakes up from a one in a million if not billion situation and no one is prepared. "Let's pray." "Let's depend on God." Everything that develops occurs with no one being prepared. The husband has no idea how to tell her what happened. Where are the counselors? Where is the pastor? A totally unacceptable situation exists with the next door neighbor Kelly and no one except Janie can see it. Again, where is the pastor? These 6 people are living on a spiritual island and that goes against Biblical teaching. As a result, a sinful situation has developed and no one is there to warn the husband. But let's talk about prayer and about trusting God. (Yes, I know they didn't sleep together, but that is not where sin starts in relationships outside your marriage. Again where is a male pastor and some deacons or elders, not a beautiful young woman. Huge red flags and warning sirens even.)

Yes the movie makes everything right, sort of, at the end. But what are we left with? Pray and trust God. Maybe read your Bible a little. But for one thing the road there was not just one of suffering. It was sinful and it was a slap in Janie's face. Somehow she wasn't scarred by the way her husband treated her even though he thought he had good intentions. For another, the Christian life is so much more and that includes community. It is like 6 people on an island vs dozens or hundreds of people working and loving in community.

I wasn't impressed by the acting or the production values. The dialogue was ok but not great. And from the beginning I expected the resolution.

This movie isn't just bad. It is borderline false teaching.
