| by David Wilcock |
| Robin Williams, this time without a beard, returns to drama in this sloppy,
sickly sweet fantasy with few redeeming features apart from the incredible
effects. He plays Chris Nielsen, who meets Annie (Annabella Sciora) and
promptly marries her. They have...more |

| What Dreams May Come is a visually rich film without a well-thought-out
story to give it depth. This tale of the afterlife makes for some good
eye candy, but little else. more |

| by Kleszczewski, Nicholas |
| Years ago, Robin Williams made _Jumanji_, a brilliant achievement in
special effects, but a travesty on nearly every other level. The same
can be said for _What Dreams May Come_, a boring, illogical,
weepie-wannabe that left my senses numb. more |

| "What Dreams May Come" is like two movies in one. On one hand, it's one of
the most manipulative, dry, boring and even silly dramas I've ever seen.
The title may come from a quote from "Hamlet", but believe me; "Hamlet" it
ain't. Also, Vincent Ward's...more |

| I've always been told that there are two things in life that are
unavoidable - death and taxes. Oddly, I've never given much thought to
either of the two. Maybe if I did, at least I'd stop getting
collection notices from Uncle Sam. Yes, let me make a...more |

| **1/2 (out of 4) WHAT DREAMS MAY COME breaks new ground. The special
effects that make Heaven look like a romantic-era painting are
astounding and outstanding. The story is okay, but it alone shouldn't
