Review of What Dreams May Come (1998) by Ryan B — 28 Dec 2016
I dont generally like cliche soulmate type movies, but this one was good. Many aspects can be discussed... Lifes twists can beat us down to very dark places, recognizing what you have in front of you (Gooding's character), the depths to which we will go to for those we love, faith, thinking outside the box and the overall creativity of the film.
The depictions of heaven can be a bit tidious, but the same cannot be said for hell, which I thought Sciorra and Williams absolutely nailed. Sciorra's life in this film, if you are one that can empathize witn movie characters, was brutal. Williams' character tries to overcome her endless despair. The ending is a slight twist, but a good one.
Cant quite put the words into play as to what it is lacking... I can say that the second half of the movie was much more thought provoking for me. So I give it a 4/5.
