Steineded How sad is this?
Matrixiole Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.
Roman Sampson One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.
Kaelan Mccaffrey Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.
SnoopyStyle It's 1972 Arkansas. Venus (Chelsea Ricketts) faces discrimination when auditioning for Romeo and Juliet. A black boy named William Ward is completely taken with her. Mr. Mountain (Graham Greene) is her father and they are part of the Lightning Clan. Separately, an old man (Danny Glover) struggles after a lost.The starting racism is a little over the top but it's at least memorable. The problem may be that she is not so outrageously talented that she deserves a Tony right on the spot. A montage of inferior auditions would help a lot for the comparison. The young romance is relatively bland. The meet cute isn't much although the two young leads are charming enough. Quite frankly, they're more good looking than powerful. Graham Greene is way too stoic which limits his emotional range. There is a magicalism which isn't that well explained. The dividing between the past and present day doesn't add much of anything. Glover feels stranded on his own island and could have played William's father giving it more power. It should stay mostly as a period piece with the two young leads and two powerful veteran actors as their dads.
kosmasp Or as they call it in Germany: A timeless love story. It could also be called: Love from another place (dimension) or anything similar that will tell you that this is very sown into the native American culture and into believes. Whether that strikes you as odd or as unbelievable will determine how much you like this.You have to suspend disbelief at least a little bit and Danny Glover sells it as good as he can. Sometimes even he struggles with some of the dialog or display of emotion. But if you buy completely into it and its mythical treating of certain things you won't mind that. I'm just here to remind you, that this might go sideways really fast if at any point you start doubting ... Better believe it ... pun very much intended
fox-wine This is a brilliant love story from the incredible Director, Norry Niven. Norry and team picked a perfect cast and this storyline and the acting are first rate.This is a love story told in a flash back style going back over 50 years. At times it is full of joy, love and at times very sad. This one had me weeping throughout the movie.If all movies were this interesting with such wonderful content and such amazing directing, the film world would be a much more enjoyable place.This is one of those movies the whole family will enjoy so don't wait, go see this now!
Amy Hollywood FROM ABOVE is a wonderful love story. Danny Glover is fantastic as his character lovingly looks back on his life with his love, Venus. Norry Niven does a great job directing and the production quality is excellent. This film also addresses the challenges of an interracial couple and shows how love can overcome those challenges. This is a great film that people of all ages are sure to enjoy! I would recommend for families as well. It is truly a love story that spans across generations. FROM ABOVE is a film that teens and adolescents will find interesting, and that parents will find appropriate. I highly recommend it for everyone.
