Writer/Director Corbin Bernsen (25 Hill, Rust) and Nathan Gamble (25 Hill, Dolphin Tale, The Dark Knight) star in the powerful story about a boy whose search for answers leads him to faith. Oliver is a bright 12-year-old who lives in the shadow of his parents' loss of their first son. His family appears fine on the outside, but is broken behind closed doors. As they work out their faith, Oliver is left to grapple with his own belief in God and the answers to life's biggest questions: Why am I here? What happens after death? Who made us? An angel disguised as a quirky traveler is sent to help him bring the pieces of the puzzle together. As Oliver's struggles cause him to look to science for answers, he discovers God is found by faith not by sight.

Beyond our Heavens
I wouldn't have thought I would like this one as much as I did. So I watched it twice to be sure. I say that tongue and cheek but I thoroughly enjoyed this film. The story was very unique in that it dealt with a child death that occurred some years before the boy in our story was born. He knows of his brother and what had happened to him as his parents hadn't kept anything from him. Because his brother just disappeared without a trace the parents try not to be to over bearing with him. Add a peculiar stranger in the mix that reads to a group of young people and you have the ingredients for a whole town of paranoid parents. As young Oliver asks some of life's big questions the mysterious Barlow is there to help him sort out what science has tried to answer. Why are we here and what happens when we die are a couple of the "big" questions, and you will have to watch "Beyond the Heavens" to understand the answers. You won't be disappointed.

A Most Excellent Film
A great film that challenges a person to remove the veil of their natural eyes and begin to see with their spiritual eyes the works and role of a Creator. In this film the challenge is tossed from a child, his parents, even his Biology teacher. Yet, it is all tied together by a special messenger, who appears to be a stranger to this small community. Nonetheless, in its short-time, this film expands so much of what is known and at times taken for granted. Its short-time, this film challenges logic and provides an incentive to explore that which fills in the void of the pattern of the grand design. Watch the film, it will be worth it. I recommend it.

Loved It
It's different and I loved it! It raises the question is there a God and answers it in a wonderful way. I don't want to give the story away, you have to watch and keep your eyes on Barlow, he is an angel for sure!

Fascinating Premise
I absolutely love the premise and the conflict of the protagonist's internal debate between science and faith (having recently finished writing a book with the same ideas). The production quality was good and there was some really good acting and that's what warrants a four-star rating. The plot, however, was sub-par and some of the dialogue was unbearable. If those don't bother you then you will enjoy this quirky film about faith and reason.

Beyond the Heavens, another great Corbin Bernsen Film.
This is a heartwarming, small town, story. I love everything Corbin Bernsen does as a writer and actor. The film features Nathan Gamble (25 Hill, Dolphin Tale) and Lloyd Warner, a very interesting character actor (Rust). This is a wonderful film, we were please to share this work during our Christian film festival in our small town (Bedias, Texas, Christian Film Festival) and we fully reccomend this film for adults and children.
