Wait until he finds out that Santa Claus isn't.

Not that I always agree with film critics, and they've been very wrong about some movies in the past, but I'm skeptical that's the case here. And I have no issues with movies that have predominantly religious subject matter or figures as their main characters (because there are some extremely good movies that have done that). But this isn't going to be one of them, I'm afraid.

Film Critic Steve Pulaski for Influx Magazine gave the film a D-, stating, "Optimism for Heaven is for Real being Christian film’s present silver lining quickly dwindled about a third of the way through the picture. You’ve heard of movies 'wearing their heart on their sleeve,' meaning they always make their emotions very clear to the audience and possess no attempt to disguise their feelings? Heaven is for Real rips its heart out of its chest, plasters it on both of its sleeve, its shirt, its pants-legs, and shows it to you up close to show just how emotionally potent it is."

Agenda driven movies: One of the reasons I don't bother going to the movies anymore, I suspect.
