The Other Side of Heaven Ratings & Reviews
Dallas Morning News
Al Brumley
There's a disturbing 'Great White Hope' undertone to The Other Side of Heaven that subtly undermines its message of Christian love and compassion.
Seattle Times
Melanie McFarland
As exciting as all this exoticism might sound to the typical Pax viewer, the rest of us will be lulled into a coma.
Orlando Sentinel
Jay Boyar
The film's implicit premise is that the faith of the Tonga people is in every way inferior to that of John.
Chicago Tribune
Robert K. Elder
Captures a breathtaking exotic landscape cluttered only by the smugness of its characters.
San Francisco Chronicle
Edward Guthmann
Handsome and sincere but slightly awkward in its combination of entertainment and evangelical boosterism.
New York Times
Stephen Holden
The movie's vision of a white American zealously spreading a Puritanical brand of Christianity to South Seas islanders is one only a true believer could relish.
Washington Post
Michael O'Sullivan
Your stomach for Heaven depends largely on your appetite for canned corn.
New York Post
Lou Lumenick
Obstacles are too easily overcome and there isn't much in the way of character development in the script.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Carrie Rickey
It is inspirational in characterizing how people from such diverse cultures share the same human and spiritual needs.
Las Vegas Review-Journal
Carol Cling
Painfully earnest and painfully dull.
Common Sense Media
Nell Minow
OK movie of young Mormon missionary.
Movie Mom
Nell Minow
This gently retro story of a young Morman missionary in the Pacific Islands of Tonga loses some wholesomeness points due to some smug insularity.
The Hollywood Reporter
Kirk Honeycutt
The central story lacks punch.
Village Voice
Ed Park
Perhaps even the SLC high command found writer-director Mitch Davis's wall of kitsch hard going.
