A Little Bit of Heaven: Press reviews

'Braver, earthier and slightly less sentimental than you might fear.'

'There's no getting away from the melodrama at the film's core, but though the third act threatens to stray into cliché, Wells' script remains restrained, showing more than telling.'

'It is a very large bit of pure bloody hell.'

'A large slice of Hell, more like.'

'A Little Bit of Heaven is not a film that I would ever commend to the ill, the well or to anyone in that grey area between.'

'A game and endearing Hudson is the best thing about the film, but otherwise it's a cynical affair only suited to those who like a cheap, forgettable weep.'

'There's so much that's wrong with "A Little Bit of Heaven," including its misleading title (think further south and then head toward the ninth circle), that it's hard to know where to begin'

'A Little Bit Of Heaven is a grotesque example of ­Hollywood schmaltz.'
