Highway to Heaven Audience Reviews

Reptileenbu Did you people see the same film I saw?
InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
Paynbob It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.
Sarita Rafferty There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.
The_BDC I was very pleased to find find others who loved this show as much as I...but honestly...I wasn't surprised. I still watch this show to this very day - the reruns play on a network called UP. Even though I have seen every episode...I always feel good watching them again and again...one might call the feeling I get as joy; I don't use that word much. I have watched so many shows over the years and none make me feel the way this show does. Michael Landon was truly an angel to have created this series...so call it cheesy...call it outdated...call me sentimental - I don't care. All I know is that there is allot of good in the world and it only takes an hour out of my day to remind me of that.
raisleygordon I was only a child when "Highway" aired in first-run, so I barely remember watching it then, and it deserves to be on DVD, even if the entire run doesn't get released. Fortunately, the episodes never released on DVD are available on YouTube (as well as the rest of the series) Thank goodness for YouTube. Even the theme song is worth listening to over and over again. It's a shame this show only lasted 5 seasons (actually, 4 and a half, to be precise). Even if Landon and French never became ill, the ratings would have killed the show anyway, so I guess it wouldn't mattered one way or another. Notable famous guest stars: Robert Culp, Ed Asner, James Earl Jones, Moses Gunn, Helen Hunt, Leslie Nielsen, Barry Williams, Paul Walker, Richard Farnsworth, Darren McGavin, Bill Erwin, Ned Beatty, Dick Van Dyke, Chad Allen.
arnie113 I never could stand this show with its mawkish story lines, saccharine plot resolutions, and (mostly) horrendous acting. I'm sure Michael Landon was a good man--many who knew him apparently loved him, and grieved over his death, but he was never much of an actor. Still, somehow he managed to parlay his good looks and easy charm into a successful television career. And I have particularly resented him for his work on Little House On the Prairie, a series based on the excellent Laura Ingalls Wilder books which he co-produced, turning it into a sugary insult to the original children's books. What a shame.--arnie113
jkelly-15 Highway to Heaven is probably the greatest television show I have ever watched. Michael Landon showed us the viewers the way older people, people with disabilities, and others can be treated so badly in society. As Jonathan Smith Michael tried to instil better values in people, as well as showing us how to treat people with love and respect. Plus there was always plenty of action when Jonathan would be forced to defend people from thugs. One of my favourite episodes has to be the one where a man has his food taken from him by thugs, Jonathan says to the thugs c'mon give the kid back his food you've had your fun, when they refused Jonathan threw the thugs all over the place. The show also showed Jonathan and Mark on wonderful journey's from town to town each week, which was great. Michael Landon tried to show people how to love and laugh, just watching an episode makes you want to get out there and help someone out. I thank Michael Landon for inspiring me to be a better person. I will never forget what Michael Landon has contributed to my life, and I thank him so much. Highway to Heaven should be on television again, rather than the non-family oriented Reality Television Shows of today. Michael's television shows took me back to my childhood memories of my loving grandmother Mavis Brewis. I am certain that Michael Landon and my grandmother are now real angels of god.
