"A gentle, aimless documentary about singer-songwriter Elliott Smith, who died from self-inflicted knife wounds to the heart in 2003 ... Heaven Adores You prizes beauty over story, and the art over the life. There was a romantic, fragile side of Smith, and it's the only one we see".

"Vurdering: B" - "Heaven Adores You works best if you approach it like a mixtape or a fanzine. It's pieced together from old interview clips, random landscape footage, and interviews with the people who knew Smith, worked with him, and almost unequivocally loved him. It's a little rough around the edges and almost incapable of being critical of its subject, but it's exciting and passionate and it gives you something you won't get from a more mainstream source. And what Rossi's approach lacks in objectivity, it more than makes up for in intimacy".
