Curapedi I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

Nayan Gough A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

Rosie Searle It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

SnoopyStyle It's 1972 Arkansas. Venus (Chelsea Ricketts) faces discrimination when auditioning for Romeo and Juliet. A black boy named William Ward is completely taken with her. Mr. Mountain (Graham Greene) is her father and they are part of the Lightning Clan. Separately, an old man (Danny Glover) struggles after a lost.The starting racism is a little over the top but it's at least memorable. The problem may be that she is not so outrageously talented that she deserves a Tony right on the spot. A montage of inferior auditions would help a lot for the comparison. The young romance is relatively bland. The meet cute isn't much although the two young leads are charming enough. Quite frankly, they're more good looking than powerful. Graham Greene is way too stoic which limits his emotional range. There is a magicalism which isn't that well explained. The dividing between the past and present day doesn't add much of anything. Glover feels stranded on his own island and could have played William's father giving it more power. It should stay mostly as a period piece with the two young leads and two powerful veteran actors as their dads.

Chris Rupert Being a big fan of Director Norry Nivens and his commercial work, I couldn't wait to see his first feature film, From Above. I found myself being drawn into this romantic drama that has a unique element of scifi woven into the story. It's hard to place a genre label on this movie, because it has so many elements in it that make it a great story. The wonderful thing about this film, is that it speaks about how love can transcend race, culture, and even time. This movie plays with time and jumps back and forth between two stories. Two stories separated by time and culture but woven together by love. The film also has a good emotional twist that is sure to surprise you. The cinematography in this film is beautiful, especially love the NY city scenes. Highly recommend seeing the film.

fox-wine This is a brilliant love story from the incredible Director, Norry Niven. Norry and team picked a perfect cast and this storyline and the acting are first rate.This is a love story told in a flash back style going back over 50 years. At times it is full of joy, love and at times very sad. This one had me weeping throughout the movie.If all movies were this interesting with such wonderful content and such amazing directing, the film world would be a much more enjoyable place.This is one of those movies the whole family will enjoy so don't wait, go see this now!

Amy Hollywood FROM ABOVE is a wonderful love story. Danny Glover is fantastic as his character lovingly looks back on his life with his love, Venus. Norry Niven does a great job directing and the production quality is excellent. This film also addresses the challenges of an interracial couple and shows how love can overcome those challenges. This is a great film that people of all ages are sure to enjoy! I would recommend for families as well. It is truly a love story that spans across generations. FROM ABOVE is a film that teens and adolescents will find interesting, and that parents will find appropriate. I highly recommend it for everyone.
