Summary: Sumptuous visual feast as filling as a cracker.
Review: I was hoping to come away from this movie with more than the empty feeling than I did. Even though the visual presentation was intriguing and beautiful, why the Vail's? No one appeared as they were until some prerequisite had been met on the part of the newly deceased. Williams sucked in this quasi-emotional serious piece. I was unable to feel any empathy for his self absorbed wife, the piece meal way we learned why she took her life her left much to be desired. I had no pity for her character, and thought she should have been left in hell where she belongs. I guess I am blaming the wrong people, the screenwriter and the director share equally for bringing such crap to the screen.

Summary: What were they thinking?
Review: Sure, the artistic design and special effects are great, but were the screenwriters drunk when they spewed out the script? The unusual premise aside, the characters are not believable and the plot is choppy and contrived. People think this movie is "deep"? Come on! A film isn't deeply philosophical just because it is about death and the afterlife. It has to make sense too!

Summary: One of the most visually interesting that I have ever seen
Review: I left this movie with eyes swollen by tears but a smile on my face. The scenes in heaven were absolutely breathtaking. The scenes in hell scary enough to make you want to change your life around.Everybody should know a love like portrayed in this movie.

Summary: Best movie I've seen in years!!
Review: This is an intellectual masterpiece waltzing its way through life, death, and love. The people that I've talked to that didn't like the movie commented on things that I attribute to the intellectual nature of it. It far surpasses any other movie I have seen on the big screen or on video. Not only is it a brilliant love story, but it is also a masterpiece of intellect. It challenges your thoughts, emotions, and beliefs. It makes you cherish what you have in your life. It is also a statement to how precarious life is. That is something that we all should realize and cherish. Especially, after the events around the country lately. Hug your spouses, significant others, children and parents. They can be taken from us at a moments notice.

Summary: What a film should be!
Review: A masterpiece! The most visually captivating film I've ever seen. It combines imaginative visual effects with a powerful story and first-rate acting. The casting is great with Williams doing another touching/tragic performance. Gooding is super as is the rest of the cast. If you love art, this is the film for you. My only regret is that I don't know a lot about paintings, so I belive I missed some of the context. This film makes you think and feel!

Summary: This movie was uplifting and amazing!
Review: My own soul mate and I went to see the movie together, as a police officer he is most definately the action movie type. But this movie was different, it changed something inside both of us. After every one else had left the theater, we were left sitting in our seats, hugging and crying, holding on to that which we hold most precious.

Summary: some day my dreams may come
Review: What Dreams May Come is one of those films that you'll either love or hate. Anyone expecting a comedy from Robin Williams will be disappointed. Robin Williams, I feel, gives his best performances in roles that are not in the comedy genre such as in Good Will Hunting. Again he brings a commanding performance and this holds the film together. This is a film filled with emotion and the visuals of the film depict this. The overall feel of the film makes you want to slit your throat however this film does grow on you after watching it a couple of times (if you can stand it that long). Overall a good movie but not his best. For those wanting to see a ok film of epic proportions then this will be for you.
