A compelling argument is made not only with interviews of those (not necessarily Believers) who had Near Death Experiences, but an interview with a Cambridge neurologist who explains the "something" that ordinary neurons cannot define.

Had potential

The film seems to be haphazardly put together with not that much new information/thoughts on the afterlife. Having said that it's not a bad starting point for someone who is a novice to Christ. It makes some deep and profound points but they are made somewhat insignificant due to the constant and self indulgences/biography of the lead characters.

Wanted to love it

It was disjointed. A few touching moments. Seemed to run in too many directions and didn't make a case at all. I wanted to see more about NDEs. But a lot of random pieces thrown in that didn't have anything to do with the topic. But the movie itself was VERY well made. Just didn't have the right ingredients. Anti-climactic.

Full of wonder

The wonder and beauty and glory of Life Himself is beyond comparison. I got a little teary when I watched this movie. What a sweet reminder of the gift we have in Jesus! The soundtrack by Eric Owyoung (Future of Forestry) is stunning. And Mani Sandoval is the real deal. It's a beautiful film!

Do you believe in Heaven?

I would very much like to be able to recommend this, especially for non-believers. There are some really moving pieces, especially about near-death experiences of both heaven and hell. Lee's story and the Christian message are absolutely excellent, but this movie itself we found to be long, drawn out and somewhat disjointed. We were quite disappointed in the way that it was made, but the message is spot on. If you have the time and can wade through it, the teaching points are well worth it.

Thanks to Pure Flix for providing a sample of the product for this review. Opinions are 100% my own.

Good film, but doesn't stay on track with theme

I've read the wonderful book by Lee Strobel, and found it provided answers to the many questions that people have about what happens after a person dies, and what heaven is like if it's real. I was excited to hear about a movie based on the book and did not want to miss it.

I found the movie very good and would recommend it to anyone. A concern is that the movie did not seem to be on-track with the "case for heaven" as the book, and at times it deviated into areas that were not in the book. Occasionally I found myself asking, "How does this support the case for heaven?" The answer was not clear to me. Also I noticed that several topics in the book (such as whether there is evidence for reincarnation instead of heaven) was not mentioned at all.

Is it a good movie you should see? Yes. Does it represent the material in the book well? Only partially. So even if you see the movie, be sure to read the book as it contains so much more I wish had been included.
