User Reviews

Wonderful film

Heaven's Rain is a wonderful film about a tragic story. I was very impressed with how the emotions of everyone involved in the story were presented. Mike Vogel does an excellent job portraying Brooks Douglass and walking us through the heartbreak and hope that has occurred in his life. Douglass even portrays his own father, a feat that I'm sure was daunting but helped connect the story to the viewers in a powerful way. In addition, the great performances of Taryn Manning and Erin Chambers help tie the story together. Thank you Brooks Douglass for not only telling your story, but for reminding us all that forgiveness is possible no matter what.
