Parents need to know that Heaven Is for Real is a faith-based
family drama inspired by Nebraska pastor Todd Burpo's best-selling
memoir about his son Colton's alleged experiences in heaven when he was 4
years old. The movie, like the book, proposes that, during surgery,
young Colton (who never died on the operating table) somehow visited
heaven, proving that the afterlife exists. While there's not much
questionable content in the movie overall, a few scenes show characters
in pain or injured, and there's one scene in which the Burpos'
school-aged daughter punches two boys making fun of her brother. There's
also a fair bit of kissing and marital affection (though certainly
nothing that could be considered graphic), as well as one suggestive
(but unheard) comment. Young kids may not understand some of the movie's
mature issues, and some families may feel more comfortable with the
religious subject matter than others.
