SparkMore n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.

Matrixiole Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.

Sharkflei Your blood may run cold, but you now find yourself pinioned to the story.

Stephanie There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

otto-erik The Chinese philosopher Chuang-Tzu dreamed he was a butterfly and when he woke up he thought maybe he now was a man in a butterfly's dream. I think you can see the whole film as a dream and as such it is just perfect. In the real world it's of course impossible for a Japanese to be understood in Corea, speaking his own tongue -it's not like e.g. a Swedish actor in a Norwegian or Danish film- but in a dream it's even natural. Also, the "comical", bloody stay-awake-scenes should be seen as dream-scenes; I guess in real life you would drink a lot of coffee instead of stabbing yourself! So, my recommendation is: give the film a second chance and look upon it as a dream.

regnarghost A man and a woman's life becomes entangled as she does what he dreams, or in other cases,he experiences what she does while sleepwalking. Its a storyline that Kim-Duk should feel right at home with. And for the first twenty five minutes or so it looks promising. Rich atmosphere with tasteful use of music. I was just waiting for him to really start WORKING with the story and ideas at hand.I don't think he does that. To me it looks like Kim-Duks abandons much of his graceful soul-searching in favor of fleshy melodrama. Especially the awkward shouting-scene at the field, but the whole film has something contrived about it. The main-character are very illogical in their thinking, with may indicate that the film is meant to work on a allegorical level, but I'm dubious. The cinematography too strikes me as bland, with some interesting exceptions. There are faint echoes of 3-Iron here, the film that more and more stands out as his masterpiece, but lacks most of its subtle grace.Well, until the end that is. The breathtaking and magical scene where she "escapes" confirms that Kim-Duk still has it in him,(but I'm not wild about how it ties everythinkg together so neatly), as much as i respect him as an artist, i think Kim-Duk needs to relocate and form ranks.

Bahadir Coskun I watched this movie at the festival of ''Film Ekimi'' in Istanbul.I got excited when I learned that Kim-Ki Duk's film would be shown in the festival,I guessed we were going to watch a nice movie and at the end of the film I was not mistaken.Film's subject is shortly;A man dream she caused a car crash, then discovers a real hit-and-run accident. The driver is arrested by police as the prime suspect, though she claims she was not responsible.The film is very impressive and has got a shocking scenario.Kim-Ki Duk handled human relationships successfully and he edited very well.I hope many people will watch this movie..

nil-sama Coming from Kim Ki Duk, I expected much more out of this movie. If you've read the summary, you've basically spoiled the entire movie for yourself.Even the shots of this film were dull compared to Kim's other films.Odagiri Joe also speaks entirely in Japanese in this movie, while all other characters speak in Korean, yet everyone understands each other. If you don't speak either language, you may enjoy the movie much more than I did.Overall, I can only give "Dream" a 4/10. Die hard Kim Ki Duk fans be warned.
