Rating: 3/5 --
Goldberg is on top form, doing her Jamaican accent shtick.

Radio Times
Without any charm or verisimilitude from Miss Goldberg, the film would have degenerated into hopeless goo.

New York Times
Buoyed by a beautifully measured star turn by Whoopi Goldberg and a smashing screen debut for young Neil Patrick Harris, Clara's Dream is a powerful, unabashedly sentimental drama.

Variety
"Clara's Heart" has several pluses. There's the rapport between Goldberg and Harris, impressive in his screen debut. And it is a relief to see Goldberg working back into "The Color Purple" mode.

Clara's Heart is just awful.

People Magazine
The surprises may not come quite often enough for some, but at all times there is Goldberg's glowing performance to keep us fascinated, or a nice salty bit of humor, or a great little character riff by Harris that's completely endearing.

Description by OLDIES.com:
David Hart (Neil Patrick Harris) is a preteen as disillusioned as a 40-year-old and as vulnerable as a 5-year-old. The death of his baby sister and his parents' subsequent separation have left him despairing and lonely. But he's about to discover all the love he needs.
