esteban1747 It is a film based on a tragedy of Beam's family, composed of three girls as well as their parents. Illness, an irreversible one affected one of the girls, and that is when family adventures begin, accompanied by economic and sentimental difficulties. The solution arrived unexpectedly, many can believe it, others cannot, and everyone is free to have his/her own opinion. Another value of the movie is to see how Americans, considered the most powerful country of the planet, suffer to lack sources for medical care, despite having true masters of medicine. This film was directed by Patricia Riggen with a cast of actors some not very much known, such as Jennifer Garner and Martin Henderson, in addition to the now famous Queen Latifah. The plot of the film is based on the novel "Miracles in the sky" written by Christy Beam with the real events that happened to her. The performances of the girls in this film are impressing, are really outstanding ones.

Marie This is a true life story of a young girl Annabelle Beam who developed a rare condition that effected her digestion in a way that would prove fatal. After falling 30 feet head first down a hollowed out tree she was miraculously cured in a way that the surgeon who's care she was under couldn't understand. The direction was capably executed and the interaction between the actors was relaxed and believable, especially Jennifer Garner who gave a very good performance as the distraught mother KrissyThe only problem I had with it was it's over sentimentality. I understand that this is based on actual events, but it almost felt like a Hallmark movie where it never rains and all the actors have perfect hair, teeth and makeup, so to bag an A list actress to play the lead was a coup in itself. Whether you believe in God or not, there's obviously something unexplainable that happened to this young girl to inspire her story to movie status. Still, it's enjoyable and above average for this type of film, which I enjoyed

Lysene Miracle ... or how to remain optimistic. I won't say that you have to believe in God because faith is omnipresent in this film. But, whatever you are going through, because of this film, you will know that you will never be alone anymore. It is a wonderful film which shows you that you should never give up. It is impossible not to cry but what a beautiful film. The actors are amazing. Jennifer Garner is perfect in this role. What else can I say ? It is a incredible story and I just can tell you that you should see this film.

krocheav Having been initially wary of how well this film would play out - I ended up surprised at just how successfully it was handled. To begin with, it features a sterling performance by American Jenifer Garner. She absolutely shines in her difficult role as mother to young daughter Anna Beams. Anna's story could too easily be palmed off as clichéd but, being based on factual situations makes it considerably different from other movies with similar content. It tells of Anna's astounding life changing experiences while fighting off a rare, deadly digestive disorder. Young Kylie Rogers as Anna, proves herself to be quite a formidable star.The screenplay by Randy Brown is adapted from Christy Beam's (Anna's mother) factual book. Christy examines the many challenges and inspirational experiences shared by her daughter and family. Garner plays Christy, while New Zealand actor Martin Henderson ("Little Fish" '05) turns in good support as her husband. The family have all moved to live on his newly established Veterinary farm in Texas and are set to be sorely tested, emotionally and financially. Another noteworthy performance comes from multi-talented Eugenio Derbez, playing a highly interesting character who's based on real-life specialist Dr Samuel Nurko. Other cast members in supporting roles also execute their characterizations very well indeed. And, that surprising 'Tree' scene is rather unsettling.American based Peruvian cinematographer and director of photography Checco Varese (AKF: "The 33" in 2015) supplies a wide array of glorious visuals. These are accompanied by a worthy music score from veteran Roman composer Carlo Siliotto. The whole work is nicely tied together with great flare by talented Mexican director Patricia Riggen, who keeps this true story running at just the right tempo. Viewers with tendencies towards little or no faith, or those who maybe cynical towards situations involving the inexplicable - might find this movie could be wasted on them - however, no matter what your view, it is difficult to dispute the confirming evidence of documented medical records!. If your'e looking for a faith-lift based on actual events, then you won't be let down. Introducing the real-life characters over the final credits is a master touch. It's good to know this movie was so successful - it actually made a well deserved profit. It's certainly a refreshing break from the assorted porn masquerading as 'entertainment' on today's market. Congratulations all involved and Sony/Columbia.
