I'm not really sure what this movie is supposed to be about? I kept waiting for some cool plot twist to bring it all together and it never happened. The scenes didn't flow, creating a non cohesive storyline. These two kids go to some alternate reality, one person there knows what's going on, but the kids never ask him? Wouldn't that be your first question, what's going on? Overall, I thought the movie lacked character depth, lacked emotion, and lacked an actual plot. On the positive, the acting from the kids was okay, and the cinematography was good.

Blumhouse Productions is well known for making high quality movies on low budgets. To a degree, this particular effort of theirs is high quality, being that it is professionally made from the cinematography to the camerawork. Also, the acting by the no name cast is also pretty decent. But even all of these good points can't make up for the fact that the script for this movie is really not all that good. The core premise of the movie is promising, and things get off to a decent start. However, about a third of the way into the movie, things start falling apart. The movie starts to build a long list of questions that are simply not answered very well - or at all. It's almost as if the screenwriter was coming up with the plot as he was writing instead of thinking through the story completely before sitting in front of his computer to start writing the story down. Eventually, the movie becomes downright silly and unbelievable. The movie is not a total washout, for reasons explained at the beginning of this review, but it ends up being a big waste of time, especially for the viewer. It's easy to see why the distributor of this movie (Universal Pictures) never gave it a theatrical release.

As the movie Us (2019) came after this one, I'd have to say the inspiration may have been something like Coherence (2013),with a dash of Truth or Dare (2018). Unlike most people I didn't see Coherence as a revelation. I admire the originality of the idea, but from that idea the movie only goes so far as to create acting opportunities for the cast, much like an episode of Thank God You're Here (2006). Similarly, Seven In Heaven is an opportunity gone begging. It hasn't the abrupt violence, distortion and frantic tension of Us, or the dystopian dimension. The tension in Seven is blasé, and even a little illogical. The cover of the dvd puts one in mind of Paranormal Activity: The Ghost Dimension, but Seven lacks any special effects at all. Nor did Seven have the visceral horror dimension of Truth or Dare. These points are all opportunities that have gone begging. The writers and filmmakers needed something much more ambitious, hard edged and visual to really make this source material sing. It needed more time in the think tank. I thought the ending was a little cruel. That was what decided me to give this only a 6. I was certainly entertained, the premise and the actors did display skill, but I think that most people over the age 16 may think this movie a little tame by today's standards.
