Beautiful Dreamer

I think that this is a very refreshing movie. I was not assaulted with gore, foul language, unnatural "acts", rape scenes or unwarranted violence. Maybe the plot was "predictable", but didn't we know what was going to happen to the "Titanic"? The story and the acting were great and I enjoyed this "refreshing" movie. This movie gives us a small window into the the lives of the "Greatest Generation" that endured World War II and the aftermath. Our nation is forever indebted to this generation of Americans. I enjoyed the the "look" of this movie. It was beautifully shot. Some movies seem to be able to "pick you up and take you there". Beautiful Dreamer did that. I hope that there are more movies of this type in the future.

This movie is great, but I though it could have been done better.

The acting is wonderful, especially when the time period was around World War II!

The costume was great! And also the storyline!

The music was wonderful, it really help us feel like we are living that same time period.

This was a hard movie for me to hate because the story line was great and everything in it, the only problem I had; when the scene changes, it doesn't make sense. This is the part which it could have been better.

Other than that, its a movie to be enjoyed.

Although the locations were authentic and Cinematography good; the plot was very unlikely and not credible. It was as credible and plausible as an Eagle picking up a beagle dog taking him to great height, dropping him, the dog catching a pigeon in flight, the Dog landing in pile of Hay, bouncing harmlessly, making a great meal of the pigeon only to be found by the rancher who was just thinking about buying a Beagle for his daughter who had been begging for one. C'mon!! the writer should NEVER be allowed to write again.

The acting was indeed cheesy and corny at times. probably induced by bad writing and bad story line. I actually, rolled my eyes, huffed and puffed at times

granted that this movie tries to appeal to the Human condition and tries to make a story about romance and love, it just doesn't work! The writer tried to create a jigsaw puzzle with pieces and elements that did NOT belong to the same set.

it is also puzzling that the director did not catch any of this. and appeared not quite prepared to be a director and unable to guide the actors.

I also noticed that all the "GREAT" reviews here, were all from people in Los Angeles where this company is based. no doubt from people all connected to this movie and thus meaningless to me.

While not dreadful Beautiful Dreamer is so clichéd and just predicable that it fails on every front.

A simple tale of childhood love, that grew up, and get married. He then goes off to the Second World War and loses his memory (or has dissociative personality disorder) anyhoo he does not remember his previous life. When his wife's car breaks down and finds him in a small town, and he cannot remember her, there follows the inevitable tale of discovery and love reborn.

We normally love romantic movies but this is too simple to really shine. The camera and lighting are all pretty basic and it all looks and feels like to belongs instantly on Hallmark.

I cannot recommend this: it is just to saccharine, and the script lacks any depth of its complicated topic - all in all it felt barely OK, and barely romantic: just too predictable, linear, and made for TV values to shine.

Sorry...not one for the heart or brain...

Awful is not a strong word in the case of this messy soap opera. While I'm not divulging any secrets of the movie plot (there is no plot to mention), you won't get to see this movie on any wide release or even a small release in the theaters. If they are lucky, a TV sale on LifeTime TV might land in the director's backyard.

This movie is like a damaged plane made of parts that cannot fit and it simply doesn't take off. The writer hasn't stop for a second to think of his writing, basically writing the movie and perhaps reading a book on how to write movies at the same time.

The director is childish to think she can direct, since any good director would change lines, direct actors to react a certain way and frame the shot so that is not in a constant 3-shot. While the cinematography is beautiful, the story tries very hard. I was actually impressed with the producing because the movie looks very good for a small budget (under $1 mil). But then again, who cares about that when the movie is a total waste of your almost 2 hours, hours that will NEVER come back.
