We determined many years ago, let us put that number in the vicinity of "we are old," that we should not judge art we hadn't seen for ourselves. (It had to do with our High Dudgeon about Kevin Smith's Chasing Amy, and how dare he have his man hero change a lesbian, and then we saw it, and it was nuanced and shit.) But now here comes Heaven Is for Real, and our inbox is filling up with emails extolling it from the usual scolds who determine they Speak for the Trees, or at least all Christians, and the emails are about how this movie is THE BEST, and all the Christians will eat it up FOREVER, and it is about Heaven and Jesus but -- and they actually say this -- it is not "too preachy" which is definitely a thing they do not like, the too preachy and the being of it.
