I didn't really want to watch this going into it, but it kept me interested in how far this couple will go. Very simple movie, with great cinematography. The ending was a bit heavy handed in regards to the movie's title, but whatever. Blanchett though is great throughout, and I was able to get past Ribisi as being more than just Pheobe's weird brother in Friends. The story itself however plays second fiddle to the rest of the movie; it's not believable at all in the timeframe presented.

The Italian police are a bunch of incompetent retards.

The cinematography and acting were both very good. However, the plot was implausible and there wasn't much chemistry between the main characters.

Cate Blanchett is a national treasure. Not of my country but of a country, certainly. The first half hour or so where she's being interrogated is off the hook. She's so good. I'm not entirely sure why Phillipa and Filippo end up being mirror images of each other. Like I'm not saying that it's a bad, but I just don't get it. Anyways, this movie is worth seeing just for the stuff up until and including the escape. Top notch.

Gorgeous film. Once again, Tykwer creates a film that truly manages to FEEL different. The almost ethereal tone is carried by the two leads who both give fantastic, unstated performances. The ultimate reason for the unique atmosphere, however, is the cinematography. Go to town analyzing this film, or just enjoy the philosophical undertones carried in a beautiful vehicle.

Charming.

Stunning cinematography and music. Kieslowski's story's got lots of layers and both leads do their job nicely, though they are not the ordinary love couple. Leaves very pleasent and a hint of sad feeling in the end; what could a man do aganist a society.

Beautiful movie. Absolutely stunning cinematography. I love Ribisi and Blanchett's performances. Music is also very beautiful

Very much a Kieslowski film, despite passing before he had the chance to direct it on his own. A very subtle and beautiful examination of morality and its ambiguities, as well as a graceful romance, with a fantastic score and gorgeous photography.

"Heaven is a haunting dramatization of a couple's moral ascension." - Ed Gonzalez

A Kieslowski script, but not Kieslowski direction. It could have been so much more. Still, there is much there.

An unexpected pleasure. A film that begins by framing itself as a thriller, but one that slowly moves away from conventional plot developments until it becomes something else altogether - an existential love story that explores issues of justice, guilt and redemption. Both Blanchett and Ribisi give quietly powerful performances, and the understated musical score gives the film a languid, bittersweet atmosphere.

A lovely film. The screenplay is by Kieslowski, so the dialogue is fantastic. (This is one of three he left to be made posthumously.) Cate Blanchett and Giovanni Ribisi both give a powerful performance. And, the cinematography is beautiful! What...(read more) more can you want?
