Here Comes Mr. Jordan Ratings & Reviews
Mister Arn
May 15, 2025
Well written script with great timing.
Gone With The Twins
Mike Massie
Excellent acting, cinematography, and direction, with a consistently upbeat and reasoning approach to heavy themes.
From the Front Row
Mattie Lucas
Effortlessly charming and endlessly imitated, Here Comes Mr. Jordan is a fantasy comedy with a surprisingly complex take on the afterlife and the nature of fate.
Q Network Film Desk
James Kendrick
juggles the tones and genre shifts with an impressive deftness that makes it feel all of a piece even though, in many ways, it is all over the place
Creative Loafing
Matt Brunson
The delightful Here Comes Mr. Jordan was based on a play (Harry Segall's Heaven Can Wait), but it's hardly a stagebound film, given its ease at hopping between numerous locales both earthy and celestial.
EmanuelLevy.Com
Emanuel Levy
A mildly amusing comedy fantasy that was extremely popular during WWII and later served as the basis for Warren Beatty's 1978 Heaven Can Wait.
Nick's Flick Picks
Nick Davis
Mr. Jordan has the right kind of love for itself: it isn't self-glorifying or self-fetishizing so much as it is contagiously warm toward its characters and besotted with its tenderly ambitious script
Arizona Daily Star
Phil Villarreal
The film is surprisingly sharp-edged and caustic for 1941 fare.
Film-Forward.com
Kent Turner
The appealing theme of predestination is expressed by [Rain's] Mr. Jordan ... making this one of the few rom-coms expressly for Presbyterians.
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)
Ken Hanke
First and easily the best version of the story.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
Somewhat enjoyable but rather routine romantic fantasy film.
