    Well Done Reminder About the Pure Love We Should Have

    Excellent dialogue, excellent examples of people struggling with the ability to ignore the wiles of the ego and the world. Wonderful way to remind yourself that "agape" love for every person is the best way to live in the world.

    Hard to Stay Awake the Pace is Sooooo Slow

    I thought this film might be interesting and it started out okay, but crawled along so slow that I had to shake myself several times to keep from falling asleep.

    Interesting!

    This was a pretty close representation of heaven and hell. I like several of the explanations: God doesn't make us choose Him...if He did it would be control and control is not love. We have free will to make a choice. People fear love because they don't understand it. They think hate is the opposite of love, but it's not. Apathy is, because apathy is simply not caring. A little slow but in the end it was worth watching .

    Lovely

    Like the concepts here- particularly of love & free will /choice. Simple, sweet & quite nice.

    Wow! This seemed longer than 75 minutes but in a good way.

    Never have a seen a movie that was this short but seemed to go much longer but in a good way. I was very surprised on the philosophical approach to the writing and acting and simple displays on getting the point across.

    Just a well written, directed movie. I never in a million years would think was going to be any good but I 'stumbled" upon it and I am so glad I did. Watch it and you will not regret it.
