I wasn’t sure what to expect from this flick but since I have a weak spot for Neil Jordan’s work, I thought I should give it a try. I’m pretty sure it is one of his more obscure movies, especially among his Hollywood features and it wasn’t really good, I’m afraid. I mean, it was watchable and, as usual, Jordan managed to create an intriguing mood and atmosphere but, at some point, the pl... read more

Description: It is a primal fear — that someone will get inside our minds and mess us up. That nightmare is made palpable in this scary psychological thriller directed by Neil Jordan and co-written with Bruce Robinson. The film takes seriously the potency of dreams to reveal the significance of the past and anticipate the future. In dream reality, anything is possible. A serial killer (Robert Downey Jr.) is on the loose snatching up little girls and Claire Cooper (Annette Bening), an illustrator of children's tales and a mother, is able to see in her dreams what he is going to do next. Her husband Paul (Aidan Quinn) who is a pilot, a co ... (more)

" Cast : Annette Bening, Aidan Quinn, Robert Downey Jr., Stephen Rea What was it about? A suburban housewife learns that she has a dreamworld connection to a serial murderer, and must stop him from killing again. My two cents: I’m pretty sure it is one of his movie with the lousiest reputation especially among his Hollywood features and it wasn’t really good, I’m afraid. I mean, it was watchable and, as usual, Jordan managed to create an intriguing mood but, at some point, the plot ju"

1 - Robert Downey Jr.! (48 movies items)

"10 As Vivian Thompson he was magnificently disturbing and beautiful. This movie was the tipping point for me. After I saw this, I sought out all of his movies I could get my hands on and fell in love with his beauty and talent like no other. For most of my life Johnny Depp was my favorite actor, until I saw what real talent looks like."
