Dreamland

Underrated. A treasure that deserves so much more than these mixed reviews. If you can put yourself into the shoes of this brother and sister, and the love they shared, their bond will carry you through this gem. And how lucky are we not to live in such terrible times. I felt I was there...

This movie isn't bad at all... stop please to give reversed ratings! Referring to 2019 movies for example Shazam! Has 7 and this one 5,8.... It's ridiculous. This way You don't give a good service to the cinema world because it's like you're telling them "We want and we like only silly movies!".

Dreamland is about a teen bounty hunter that is torn between helping or capturing a seductive fugitive bank robber hiding in his small town during the Great Depression. The movie is a well made drama with an interesting direction. There are two great performances from Margot Robbie and Finn Cole. Dreamland isn't always gripping but it is still a good and entertaining ride.

Rating: 6,9.

This love story is set during one of the toughest times of our history, The Great Depression. It follows Eugene Evans, a young man struggling to find his place in the world with big dreams to live a life of adventure. When the news hits of a bank robbery nearby with one of the fugitives on the run, this peaks Eugene's interest being that the fugitive has a large bounty for her capture. As fate would have it shortly after Eugene discovers the fugitive, Allison Wells, had taken refuge in his family's garage with a gunshot wound. Allison's nature is infectious and with the growing attraction and chemistry between the two Eugene becomes torn on how to proceed, claiming the bounty or breaking bad. Left with a choice that could forever change his life and all those around him in this coming-of-age tale.

This films cinematography is second to none and the gorgeous shots of the setting throughout this movie are robust, really bringing the era's setting to life. The acting in this film is extraordinary but the lack of the same caliber script and story is noticeable. If not for fantastic performances and an absolute electric chemistry on screen between Finn Cole and Margot Robbie this may have been more forgettable. This film still impresses even with its somewhat predictable ending it manages to end uniquely enough in its own right.

I don't know why meaningful movies like this gets so low ratings and low popularity these days while some big label Sci fi and stupid unrealistic superhero movies get huge attention for nothing. This movie, if you watch it carefully and with a little patience, goes straight to your heart and leaves you with a blend of emotions which you can't put into words easily. Yeah its somewhat slow paced and has some flaws throughout the story. But, movies like this ones are rare to find these days.
