it always a pleasure to see character in a movie who be wholly good hearted and well intentioned and even when theyre surround by those who be neither . the film moderately silly premise be that the conservative and religious franklin family ( mother and father and teen boy and girl ) be involve in an accident wherein the parent and brother have a near death experience during which they meet jesus and a pleasant but somewhat exasperated soul who remove from them the burden of original sin . when they return to their life and many of their view and attitude have change and much to the consternation of the daughter and who do not share the experience . the religious side be and i think and present with a good balance and from the good ( jesus ) to the starkly awful ( those of his follower who be obsess with the sin of others and utterly oblivious to their own ) . it a movie to make you think and give you a few good laugh along the way and and leave you with the pleasant feeling that the world just might be a nice place than you think it be .
