Reviews:
Richard Propes - The Independent Critic “Charlie St. Cloud is a much better film than most critics will have you believe.”
Lisa Minzey - The Reel Critic.com: “I think it’s more of his good looks more than anything. Regardless, it is a good film for viewing on a lazy Sunday afternoon. The scenery is beautiful; the relationship between the brothers is amusing and heartwarming and there is a pretty decent twist halfway through the film.”
Rachel Cobleigh: “Engaging and heartfelt, if a bit pretty at times. I gave it an 8 out of 10, because it mostly succeeds at what it tries to do.”
