Struggling comic Lance Barton knows what it's like to die on stage. But when his life takes an unexpected turn - straight to heaven - Lance is sure there's been a mistake. Miraculously, he's right! An angel tells Lance he was taken prematurely but assures him he can be returned to Earth - in the aged body of a ruthless white billionaire. In this improbable reincarnation, Lance begins a hilarious quest to realize his showbiz dream...and, along the way, discovers the person he never imagined he could be. Chris Rock delivers a first-rate performance in this romantic comedy remake of HEAVEN CAN WAIT.

"A great comedic remake of the film Heaven Can Wait!"

Harvey F Smith

"Funny !"

Darlene Stelly

"Eh, the reviews I've read on here are all praising it, but I just don't see it honestly. Chris Rock is really just playing himself, which can work as proven by Marty in the Madagascar movies, but not so much here... The funniest person in this movie is Jennifer Coolidge. And this movie would be funnier if they showed more scenes of Lance in Charles' body doing stand up. Outside of that, it's just a weird, non superhero version of Wonder Woman 1984. Basically, I do not recommend. "

"A funny and very interesting movie. Wasn't too fond as to how they portrayed heaven but otherwise very well put together. This movie will surprise you!"
