...Britain during the Great Depression, Dad (Ian Hart) loses his job when the shipyard is closed. His youngest child, Liam, played by the utterly adorable Anthony Borrows, is, meantime, priest-ridden as he confronts near occasions of sins both mortal and venial. We, of course, settle in for another movie in which a hard-pressed family smiles cheerfully through tough times. But don't get too comfortable. In his misery the father embraces anti-Semitism and native fascism, the boy's torments become distinctly unfunny, and this little film, unsparing but never unsympathetic, emerges as one of the year...

Heavier Than Heaven provides a fascinating, honest account of a man whose life has often been shrouded by awe and urban myth. Although at times Cross fails to see Cobain as a mere mortal, lauding the inner meaning and brilliance of lyrics, childhood doodles and teenage graffiti that are not extraordinary in any way, Cross separates himself from other Nirvana biographers in that he is unafraid to prove that despite his obvious musical talent, Cobain was a self-interested hypocrite who was drastically different from how he was portrayed by other journalists and from how he wished to present himself...
