An angel, who leads souls of the deceased to the other side, comes to a hospital to pick up a patient, but falls in love with patient's young doctor. For her, he sacrifices eternity and becomes mortal, and with her he discovers the true meaning of being human.Although tragic, this drama is, in my opinion, one of the most beautiful and most powerful love stories ever filmed. Nicolas Cage and Meg Ryan are excellent in leading roles and they have fantastic chemistry together. To me, this movie is the perfection of its genre.10/10.

Overall, this is a nice love story that I enjoyed the first time I saw it but decreasingly so with future viewings. After three, it was enough, but that's two more than I usually watch of Meg Ryan films.Since it's Hollywood, you know there is going to be misguided theology, in this case the subject is angels and heaven. None of the "sermons" in here are Biblical, believe me. it's really more of a love story than anything else. Plus, it's an interesting story with good visuals.Nicholas Cage plays a likable guy. There are actually a few good messages about God and angels - mainly that they exist - and another good message being that all of us should appreciate more what we have here on earth, starting with our senses (smell, taste, touch, etc.) Anyway, if you like a good romance story, you should like this movie.

In 2020 I would rather watch this movie for the tenth time than watch silly shallow romance movies of these days, this movie touch the the soul and heart, every time I feel I want a reminder of meaning of life I watch this movie.
