Today’s movie review is from Chris of the library’s Outreach Services Division.
I recently viewed Heaven is for Real over the weekend. Four-year-old Colton has a near death experience and describes with childlike innocence what it is like in heaven. The way Colton describes heaven and recounts family history that he should not know about brings skepticism and criticism not only from his parents, but also from their church.
Greg Kinnear gives a solid performance as the father who must find the courage and conviction to share his son’s story while dealing with his own personal issues. Connor Corum gives a good performance as Colton by capturing the innocence that so many children display.
The movie is rated PG.

Blogging for a Good Book 
I want to read this book someday! I certainly will too!
I read this book but have not yet seen the movie. The book was great. Really moving, whether you believe Colton or not.
I’m going to make an point and rent it soon.
I have the book on my to read shelf and will definitely be checking out the movie soon
