Summary
Reviewers say 'Silver and the Book of Dreams' is a fantasy film with imaginative visuals and captivating special effects. However, it deviates significantly from the original book, altering characters, plot, and setting, which disappoints some viewers. The cast's performances receive mixed reviews, with praise for bringing characters to life but criticism for lacking development and chemistry. Pacing is contentious, with opinions divided between rushed and fast-moving. Despite these issues, many find the film enjoyable for its unique concept and engaging story.
Featured reviews
This is a story for teen-aged girls. I don't say that as a criticism, but to set expectations. I got half-way thru it and had to quit. The story is too simple, with no real backstory, and too saccharin for most adults. It could use a dose of darkness to up the age appeal - even Dr Who does that in it's modern incarnation.
I do think it is well produced and well acted by the young adults actors. It has generally good visuals and not cheap CGI. Parts of the dialog are in German without subtitles so I had to watch with closed caption.
Checkout The Magicians for an example of an adult-oriented fantasy magic story.

This is not a real review, it should be understood more as a collection of impressions on the film.
In my opinion, this film is quite underrated and definitely deserves a look if you are interested in films that delve into dreams and all the stories linked to them. So as a film it is valid and above all it is very entertaining because the story is quite nice and original and all the personal objects stuff is also well exploited even if the twist is a little too unnatural and the ending is also a little unnatural and is for these reasons the film is not excellent because up until the twist it deserved a very high rating, but let's say that in the ending everything is wrong.

I just don't understand why some people are against this film! Seriously, I know it's not like this precious book you love, but get over it! It's mind-boggling to me. I mean, come on, the visuals were absolutely stunning! The way they brought the fantasy world to life was fantastic, and just like how kerstin gier describes. And let's not forget about the cast! They did an incredible job portraying the characters and making them feel so real.
I think sometimes people just expect too much or have different preferences when it comes to movies. But for me, "Silver and the Book of Dreams" was a good film that kept me hooked from start to finish. It's a shame that not everyone sees it that way.
So, I'd say give it a watch and let yourself be immersed in the fun new world of "Silver and the Book of Dreams". I'd love to hear what you think after you've seen it.

I just finished watching 'Silver and the Book of Dreams' and wanted to share my thoughts. It was a decent film, everyone involved did a great job.
The visuals were pretty cool, with some imaginative landscapes and interesting stuff in the dream hall in particular. They added a nice touch to the overall experience.
The characters were well portrayed, and the cast did a great job bringing them to life. While I didn't feel a deep connection to them, they were still enjoyable to watch, and I really liked the group dynamics.
The music was nice and complemented the film well, but it didn't leave a lasting impression on me.
Overall, 'Silver and the Book of Dreams' is worth a watch if you're a fan of fantasy films. It may not be the most mind-blowing one out there, but everyone involved put in a great effort, and it's a really solid film.

Fantasy films like this are such a guilty pleasure! I remember watching stuff like maze runner and divergent growing up and always loved film for things like that. They're always just entertaining and throw you into a world of imagination and excitement. And this brought me back entirely. It had a cast that gave it their all, a main character i fell in love with and a story I've never heard before.
The dream hall stuff in particular was so cool, and the group dynamics really made me think of my old dystopian favourites, they really bounced off of each other well. It was a great watch! I liked it a lot.
