After Chris Nielsen (Williams) dies in an accident, he tries to remain close to his beautiful mortal wife, Annie (Annabella Sciorra).

Chris vows to find her so they can share eternity together, but no one has ever succeeded in rescuing a soul from such a horrific fate. With the help of his heavenly friends, Chris sets out on the most perilous and harrowing journey of his life, or afterlife: a quest for everlasting love that will take him to hell and back!

This is interesting material to contemplate and generally Lee Stroble as usual tried to present enough evidence for the supernatural in relation to Christian faith.
On issue however in this movie: "The Case for Haven" could be corrected in my view which is that conversation with the musician that somehow may confuse some indecisive viewers. Therefore, it is missing one important thing to explain to them. In other words, musician’s concept of faith in Christian God is totally incomplete. He said there that the concept of God hiding from us in Christian theology and then God sending you to hell if you disbelieve in Him would be a big disagreement in his view. That is however a huge simplification in his believe system and complete misunderstanding. First of all, our Gospel tell us that (quote): "For to this end we toil and strive, because we have our hope set on the living God, who is the Savior of ALL people, ESPECIALLY of those who believe". (1 Timothy 4, 10) This means that:
1. First of all, believing in Christian God doesn't just mean that God exists since even fallen angels believe that God exists, actually they even know that God exists, but they are still in hell. True believing means that you live your life the way Jesus introduced Himself when saying (quote): “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.”, which means you have to live your life according to those values He proclaimed and accompanied by love, but if you really don't - only then you face separation from God which is possible hell (a self inflicted punishment and torment because of separation) since God doesn’t force anyone to relationship with Him and to unity with His nature. Logically saying, opposite of that would be haven in the unity with God, with God’s nature represented by LOVE. This, in any case, happens by our own by our own choice as for free will creatures. God is light, and as He said in the Scriptures, He created us in His image. Even Einstein confirmed this by pointing out that (quote): "Matter is energy, energy is light. We are all light beings." So, no wonder God wants us to join Him.
And only this behavior derived from LOVE is the TRUE faith for anyone, even for the unbeliever by which God will judge us! The content of your heart, your soul. So, that musician definitely greatly simplified it for himself creating some kind of logical nonsense out of it which prevented him from believing, and thinking that bilions of other Christian believers, many highly educated ones, are just plain stupid. So, who is then?
2. Second, God does not hide from us at all. He is all around us in His deeds That is why He said in Romans 1, 20 (quote): "For ever since the world was created, people have seen the earth and sky. Through everything God made, they can clearly see his invisible qualities--his eternal power and divine nature."
Also, God already revealed Himself to us in Christ, and hence in Psalm 14, 1 He said (quote): "The fool says in his heart, "There is no God."
Should God uncover Himself to us completely there would be only "salvation" through fear and not an honest, not effective one, but earthly life on the other hand needs to be a true trial and something like a real sieve testing your soul. And this of course is right, brilliant and true plan which really makes sense in logical terms.
Thank you.
I'd love to have it in 4K but 1080p works for me.
For in that sleep of death, what dreams may come," Wm. Shakespeare
The story tracks the tragedy of a family pulled apart one by one by cruel death, and their struggle to reconnect in the afterlife. The film presents a particular concept of the afterlife, rendered with lush imagination, imagery, art direction and cinematography. The visuals alone are worth a viewing.
It's a deeply felt, touching story. Most movies these days suffer from being too long. WDMC's fault feels like it was not long enough. Many sections of the film don't feel fully realized. The acting seems good, but it doesn't seem like it really comes together. On the commentary, the Director, Vincent Ward, recalled that Robin Williams told him this role was one of his most difficult, as it was so close to his own being. Ward apparently had difficulty with 2 shot frames with Williams and Sciorra as she tended to ace the 1st or 2nd takes, while Williams usually aced the 5th or 6th. In one frame Ward used the 2nd take, but dubbed in Williams' dialog from the 5th. It must have been maddening.
The film is a remarkable vision. It's unquestionably worth a viewing, but you will come away with a sense that it came oh so very close to having been so much more.
