Letters has so much to teach and say about dealing with adversities. The quality of the film is first rate and I can highly recommend this to families and churches everywhere.

This drama is unabashedly preachy but satisfying nevertheless.

Heavy-handed tearjerker about faith, death, and friendship.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Aug 31, 2010

As well intentioned and sometimes well acted as this film is, it is not always able to rise above its own earnest agenda in order to tell its story in an absorbing manner.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | May 7, 2010

Letters To God keeps letting the story be interrupted by the sponsor, which in this case is Christianity.

A bighearted, uplifting and captivating drama for all ages. It will inspire you to open your heart compassionately and to find hope, faith and comfort throughout your life's hardships.

| Original Score: 7.85/10 | Apr 9, 2010

There is no complexity to these characters at all and the relentless pitch for prayer as the answer to all life(TM)s problems is laid on like molasses.

This faith-based/fact-based inspirational weepie allows no one to escape the saintlike glow of its terminally ill protagonist.

| Apr 9, 2010

Letters to God is certainly watchable and may offer comfort to Christians in the audience. But its appeal will be limited, no matter how professional it looks.
