 "A classic from the greatest director of all time!!"With the Seven Samurai in second, and many other outstanding efforts (including Hidden Fortress, Rashomon, Ran, Kagemusha), I'm giving this flic the top spot. A wonderful montage of feeling and mood, Kurosawa gives us a cinematic panoramic. A movie for a contemplative mood, this is Kurasawa's entreaty to humanity, and gift to the world. Thanks Akira, you've had a wonderful life!  "Hope it's worth the wait"I've been waiting for Dreams to come out on DVD ever since I got my DVD player. It's movies like this (grand and visually stunning, like 2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY) that are real must-haves for a DVD collection. I have seen Dreams several times on video tape (unfortunately, I've never seen it in the theater) and hope that the DVD doesn't disappoint. Let the beautiful and poetic stories wash over you. Don't look too hard for literal meaning, rather enjoy the vignettes as sort of visual poems or music. This is one of my all time favorite movies and I can't wait to see it on DVD! "Dreams"This film is fantastic--at least to me. It's painful and beautiful. Having lived in Japan when young, I was struck at a very basic level by Kurosowa's imagery. Unfortunately, the listed price for this classic is insanely high. (Thank the gods I taped it from my satellite dish!) Nonetheless, I can't recommend it highly enough. I'm sure it isn't everyone's "cup of tea," but I loved it. "Let's get in DVD!"This can be easily THE most beautiful movie I've ever seen (and I've seen a lot), and it's just driving me crazy not having it on DVD, it's insane. Few movies get to touch me so deeply, particularly after all the s**t that comes out of hollywood... thanfully, this is really different. This is the most poetic movie I've ever seen and I can't help to recommend it to everyone, I know not all will like it (because it is unlike anything you've seen) but for those who do, they'll be marked. It is so beautiful, so touching, so deep, so poetic. Unbelievable. Kurosawa is THE genius. Never had I fallen in such deep a trance as in this movie. It absorbs you into a floating state of thought, it embraces you into becoming part of it. I felt the happiness, I felt the cold, I felt the silence. I felt it all. And never had I felt in such a delicate way with a movie. If you can't buy it, rent it, if you can't do that, get it ANYway you can. Believe me, it won't be an opportunity lost. "akira k's dreams"i love this movie this movie it's really good i'm going to gett all of akira's movie on dvd if u like a really like forein moive's you'll like all of them by"akira k." you'll like this movie. |
