Sexylocher Masterful Movie
Murphy Howard I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.
Quiet Muffin This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.
esteban1747 It is a film based on a tragedy of Beam's family, composed of three girls as well as their parents. Illness, an irreversible one affected one of the girls, and that is when family adventures begin, accompanied by economic and sentimental difficulties. The solution arrived unexpectedly, many can believe it, others cannot, and everyone is free to have his/her own opinion. Another value of the movie is to see how Americans, considered the most powerful country of the planet, suffer to lack sources for medical care, despite having true masters of medicine. This film was directed by Patricia Riggen with a cast of actors some not very much known, such as Jennifer Garner and Martin Henderson, in addition to the now famous Queen Latifah. The plot of the film is based on the novel "Miracles in the sky" written by Christy Beam with the real events that happened to her. The performances of the girls in this film are impressing, are really outstanding ones.
digitalbeachbum When I saw this movie I was reminded of "The Blind Side" which was completely fabricated to fit the narrative of the family involved with the story.A movie which is filled with lies and fabrications of real life events of a sick little girl who falls down a dead tree which she never was upside down the entire time as the movie misleads the viewers. She was actually right side up and was able to lay down in the fetal position.The story of their Jesus is an afterthought and added to fulfill their self sustaining prophecy that their religion is the best and you need to believe in it because look at what our god did. Well why did your god give your child the condition in the first place? Just so that at a later time events like these can happen? What a crock.So called "miracles" like this happen all the time and not only with christians, but hindus, muslims and buddhists. It happens all the time, in every country and with every belief system. When they do happen they always give credit to (insert religious icon)The acting is horrible, the direction worse and the script is a complete lie.I look no further than the scene with the father watching television where the commentator says "climate change is false..." The second example is the father (Ben) who stands up in church to speak about his daughter who had cancer (which isn't real). This is one of two examples in the movie where I find the story is designed to fit a narrative for the familie's views.
LeeAnn Spann As someone who isn't a Christian I enjoyed this movie! Simply because I am a mother! I never leave reviews, but this movie moved me in ways I truly didn't expect. Don't listen to these simple minded people who rated this movie a 1 or 3. Watch it. It's worth your time. And if you are a parent... grab your child and hold on.
Natalie Dulaney I am not a huge fan of religious films, but "Miracles From Heaven", directed by Patricia Riggen and written by Randy Brown, impressed me with the combination of actor selection and the way the story was directed. Believer or not, this dramatic family film will make it difficult for anyone to hold back tears during this true story. Christy Beam, who is perfectly played by Jennifer Garner, is a mother of three little girls and the wife of Kevin (Martin Henderson). Together, they regularly attended services at a mass church in Texas as a healthy, happy family.Now the trailer itself says it all, so there won't be any spoilers. "Life is good, Christy Beam," said Kevin, which definitely foreshadows that their lives were about to turn upside down. It started when their bright 12-year-old Anna (Kylie Rogers) suffered never ending stomach pain. Multiple doctors insisted not to worry since her condition was either lactose intolerance or acid reflux. Christy Beam, being a mother with an instinct, knew her daughter was dealing with something more serious. It was frustrating to see these doctors just constantly telling Christy Beam to calm down. Anna was then diagnosed with a rare intestinal disorder that didn't have a medical cure. From that point, Anna and Christy were flying back and forth from Texas to Boston to meet with the best pediatric gastroenterologist, Dr. Samuel Nurko (Eugenio Derbez). He had a way of bringing out the best of the sick children with his light-hearted humor, which was pleasing to watch. Anna also encountered a friendship with a comionate waitress, Angela (Queen Latifah). She had an idea that Anna was sick, so she encouraged them to let her give them a personal tour with a twist. She has never been a disappointment with her acting and performances, and she continued that legacy in "Miracles From Heaven." Both of their acting roles brought joy and a comic relief in the movie. Throughout the film, it's fascinating to notice the small miracles happen, which is ultimately what "Miracles From Heaven" is about. However, that one miracle, that faith, that Christy was desperately searching for came when Anna fell thirty feet down of the inside of a tall tree and hit head first. It may not sound like a miracle, but not only she survived the fall, her incurable disease was cured. Even though the audience already knew what was going to happen from the trailer, it is hard not to be engaged by that intense moment; it had myself on the edge of the chair the entire time. Anna claimed that when she was spiritually gone, she experienced a moment with God; one that is hard to believe. It was definitely cheesy and may seem impossible to understand, but it just depends on what people's beliefs are. The Beam Family knew it was a miracle; as do I. What made this film worked so well was the emotional performance put on by Jennifer Garner. Through the character Christy Beam, she expressed resilience, vulnerability and real warmth. Patricia Riggen, as the director, seemed to have no challenge with keeping the viewer engaged since I was just crying throughout the whole movie. It was a constant roller-coaster that was filled with anger, happiness, and sadness. Like I said, I am not a huge believer, but from the beginning to the end, "Miracles From Heaven," is a heart-warming movie.
