Review of Miracles from Heaven (2016) by Brent_Marchant — 18 Mar 2016
A surprisingly good faith-based family drama that's decidedly a cut above most of the trite, formulaic, dogmatic offerings typical of this genre. With a focus that's more spiritual than religious, the film delves into some rather heady metaphysical topics through its refreshingly candid writing, backed by fine performances and appealing special effects.
Even though the picture's narrative is fairly predictable and has a distinct point of view, it never relies on overly simplified dialogue, blatant moralizing or one-dimensional characters who look like they've just stepped out of Sunday school class.
Don't let the cynics or the subject matter steer you away from this one; give it a fair shake, and you might be pleasantly surprised.
