Look What USA Today is Saying about "Heaven is for Real""The movie may fail to convince skeptics, but it takes a position in a manner digestible for the masses. The desire for an afterlife is almost universal, and its existence is something most people have considered." -Claudia Puig, film critic
Well, Mr. Burpo can take heart from a new USA Today movie review which lauds the Christian film as being—despite a few "sentimental, corny moments"—cinematically "stunning" and "infused with humor."
"The film effectively raises an issue rarely tackled in mainstream studio movies with bankable actors," she concludes. "And it does so with a light touch, resulting in a well-acted, family-friendly and timely movie for Easter audiences that is just as much about appreciating life on Earth as it is about what comes after." Right on, Ms. Puig. America thanks you for your open-minded and fair review.

Todd Burpo, whose young son Colton is the main character in the book/movie "Heaven is for Real," reacted recently to scattered theological criticism about their story saying, "The atheists… I expect that from them. But when you see a person who claims to be a Christian attacking, you're like, 'This is awful.'" (Photo: Connor Corum playing Colton via heavenisforrealmovieresources.com)
The movie critic, Claudia Puig, notes that the film avoids being heavy-handed or preachy, and writes, "The movie may fail to convince skeptics, but it takes a position in a manner digestible for the masses. The desire for an afterlife is almost universal, and its existence is something most people have considered."
