Compare Prices on The Other Side Of Heaven
This is (share of) the narrative of one 20 year outmoded Mormon boy’s experiences while on his mission to Tonga in 1954. It is an adventure yarn with an emphasis on faith and personal relationships.
It may be difficult for anyone without faith to understand why John Groberg, or any other young person, would go on a mission, but if you can suspend your skepticism, you will be rewarded. The missionary came across as a minute nerdy, but you can’t abet but cheer for his successes and pity his failures as he deals with homesickness and culture shock while trying to learn Tongan and preach.

The scenery and musical collect are elegant, and you can almost feel the humidity and bugs that go with a tropical paradise. What I found most animated of all were the Tongans themselves. I don’t know if the actors are professionals or locals or local professionals, but they gave the movie its heart.
I found the movie/story so compelling that I went out and bought the book and the CD and eye forward to someday visiting that portion of the world.
Working off a *very* modest budget of $7 million for a nearly two-hour film, it’s no wonder there are parts of this movie where there was a certain lack of funding. The camera shots in one scene could have been better pulled off by a teenager with a camcorder, and some of the waves in the storm scene spy like they’re in a pool.
On the other hand, though, this movie wasn’t meant to be a technological marvel.

This movie tells the missionary yarn of John H. Groberg, a Seventy in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. He served in far-away Tonga, without sparkling a lick of the language. Given only two goals (learn the language and compose the kingdom), John faces many obstacles. Language barriers, a stubborn minister, storms, death, and rats. On top of all that, his girlfriend in the States, Jean, is staving off suitors, anxiously awaiting John’s return 3 years hence.
I really liked The Other Side of Heaven. It wasn’t too preachy, but it conveyed broad emotions in many of its scenes. There were a few cheesy scenes and some cliche sections, but overall the humor was clever, the region palatable (and easy to follow), and emotion touching. A tremendous movie that I hope many will be able to search for.
