The Dreamseller

This is one of the best selling books in Brazil, so i was expecting a good film, unfortunately it is not.

Actors with very weak performances and a very predictable script but with speeches that some may find interesting, however it's a big cliche talking about how our society is "empty" and how we are losing our values. Maybe with a better script and better actings it could worked a lot better.

Maybe it can work for people who don't have a lot of knowledge and worldview, however anyone who never read a good self-knowledge book, may find the movie incredible.

Had no idea what it was about and just watched it at random. Fell in love with it - it will be part of my 'spiritual center' movies or movies I go to when I'm feeling out of sorts and needing to get back to myself. Little nuggets of wisdom and phrases sprinkled in that resonate deeply. The expressiveness of the main character is truly beautiful - kudos to the actor. To be fair, the story isn't anything overly surprising as it unfolds - but the telling of it is done masterfully and with great care. If you are feeling lost, buried, overwhelmed, watch it. If you are looking for something beautiful, touching, refreshing, watch it. Don't over analyze - just go along for the ride and enjoy.

Ignore the naysayers! Anti materialist heavenly film - we need more films like this in this heartless world of me me me money money money and all the artificial B/S of modern living.

This is a great movie. Ignore bad reviews! I recommend everyone to watch this movie.

For those reading reviews in order to ascertain if the movie is worth watching, I'd say yes... absolutely. Sure, it's possible that you'll have criticism of certain unnecessary plot twists, cliche's and loose ends... but make your own mind up. Watch for yourself. It's most probably better than the alternative you have lined up.

Even if it may not be a perfect 10, there's a lot to get out of it... especially if you haven't read the book.
