V.C. Andrews' Heaven

If you read the books and enjoyed them. DO NOT WATCH THE MOVIES. They barely follow the books, the movies stories/plots are horrible and choppy and weird...and they changed the oddest details. No spoilers, I'll let you find out for yourself if you are strong enough to endure these...terrible movies. These movies literally hurt my feelings, but they did make me want to re-read the entire series again for the millionth time.

Sidenote my review has zero to do with the actors or the acting. Some of the lines were cringe worthy but all in all they did their jobs.

This is literally the worst movie ever made. The acting is awful. The writing and plot make zero sense. The characters are so bad. I don't know how this got made. If you can't laugh at it, there's no point. Seriously is so nonsensical I don't even know where to begin. I feel like the only ones to blame for this piece of crap are the producers, and they should be run out of Hollywood on a rail for this thing existing. Worst most horrific thing that has ever been produced, I don't think even the 1986 Flowers in the Attic is worse than this thing. I cannot believe it's gotten above one star ever. So very, very awful.

I really wanted to like these movies. I love the books and was excited for them to be made into movies. But come on. A huge part of the story is that Heaven has black hair. The second one is literally called Dark Angel because of her hair. She looks just like her mom except she had black hair, Casteel hair.

Leigh had silverly blond hair which was another important point in the series. They cast a red head for the dark haired character and a dark haired actress for the one with blond hair.

Farthinggale Manor was another disappointment. That house doesn't even come close to what it was supposed to be.

Being Gen-x I did like Jason Priestley as Tony Tatterton but everything else was a pitiful attempt that ignored the source material.

This deep movie started off with a good storyline and plot, but along the way, unpredictable and too many happening around this family. I knew lots of families have problems, but this movie is fixated with them. The characters were great, but a believable scene with good moments would have been awesome and nice for the viewers to see.

I enjoyed "Flowers in the attic" series, even though it was twisted, it made sense. This one I just had a hard time keeping up with and the characters were just over the top dramatic - it seems a little spoofy! Lol.
