What Dreams May Come

7 Out Of 10 Stars

This film wasn't as good as I first hoped it to be. The previews that I saw in the theater and on television looked very promising, but the film itself failed to shine. I'm not saying the movie was bad by any means, but I'm not saying it's great either. The plot became very unstable, and the over use of flashbacks became very tense to the audience. Many of the flashbacks were indeed needed, but too many can become a hassle. The film also seemed to focus on the special visual effects more than the characters. The special effects were indeed close to perfection throughout the entire film. Robin Williams performance was well done, but not as powerful as some of his other serious films (ex. Dead Poets Society, Awakenings) The entire cast did a good job, nothing to complain about there. The music was done well by Michael Kamen(Mr Hollands Opus). Sad but true, one of the most highly anticipated films of the year, fails to deliver. But still, it's better than your average movie.
