The Salon review of Heaven
The Salon review of Heaven is just a bit more focused and successful than the movie, I think. Cate Blanchett and Giovanni Ribisi were both very understated and compelling, but something about the usual subtlety of Kieslowski's images paired with Twyker's bluntness didn't quite come together. There are some wonderful moments. The film probably means a lot more as a part of a series than as a stand-alone. It's worth seeing. It's worth seeing again. I was, however, underwhelmed.
Remember the those same two stars in The Gift from a couple years back? They're good together.
