90 Minutes in Heaven [DVD]

I was streaming to find a good movie, and this came across the TV. I did not know anything about it. The movie is a true story. It is a family movie, and really speaks to the power of faith, family, prayer, and believing that with God, nothing is impossible. I had to finally buy this movie, not only because it is a feel good movie, but it is a movie that you will want to watch over and over again. I rate this five stars.

I love this true story of a pastor that died, visited heaven and came back in his body.

This was a great movie . I loved it and have watched it several times . It held my attention, I get board sometimes with some movies and end up turning them off but not with this one .👍

It was great movie very inspiring!

Rather slow moving

A truly great film for this realm of film. Family orientated and interesting. It’s one of those movie where people don’t want to watch until they talk over the movie a few minutes and get drawn in.

Good movie

This movie is about Heaven, alright- but it is about making a Heaven of this Earth, rather than about watching a ninety-minute special-effects version of the Heaven that Rev. Piper saw when he died that day back in 1989. I almost always read the reviews of the movies I buy or rent here on Amazon. I read the reviews of this movie, and I felt that it would be a good movie for my husband and I to watch. We are both Christian, and are facing some tribulation next month when I undergo a really wretched but much needed spinal repair. I was surprised when I read the other reviews, and my surprise was caused by the fact that so many people seemed disappointed that there wasn't "more" about Heaven. I did not agree with these people, because I thought that the whole movie was about Heaven! We have become excitement junkies, perhaps, when it comes to what we choose to watch on TV and what we rent or go see at the theater. Even being Christian, I felt myself feeling a little let down that this movie was not going to be filled with a mighty, special-effects vision of the Heaven that Rev. Piper saw when he died. I am hoping that all of you who choose to watch this movie will watch it with the idea of seeing those people around Rev. Piper try to raise him up- not from the dead, but from a Heaven so wondrous that he was depressed to be returned back to Earth. For those of us who are living our day-to-day lives, we often find ourselves struggling with many terrible and difficult events; the loss of a child; the shooting of innocent people caused by a hatred that runs so deep that we can hardly begin to understand it; we face tests of all kinds- driving tests, school exams, and tests of our patience when our children disobey again, just when we thought that they understood us. I found my spirit engaged in the movie. I wondered how I would feel if I was the pastor, or his wife, or one of his children or parents. I found tears rolling down my face as I watched a entire church pray through a solid night for Pastor Piper's life. There were many moments when I saw "A heaven being made of this Earth." And I enjoyed the movie a great deal. I would have given it 4.5 stars if I could have- there were little paces that I felt could have been made better. But all in all, I was heartily glad to spend the time watching real people deal with real troubles, and showing the myriad ways that one can help in the face of trouble. I hope you choose to enjoy it, too. I knew that I had heard the line, "make a Heaven of this Earth" somewhere, but I could not remember where. All I found when I researched it was a quote from an old, obscure book called "The North American Review", vol. 207. Let me know if you find a more relevant, recent, or more well-known source. Jai
