Dream Scenario

"I just love Nic Cage. This one is a weird and interesting exploration of viral fame. Plus some fun cameos"

"”Different” 3.5/5, mainly for the acting and the “weirdness” "

"This was a nice departure for Nicolas Cage and a role that he did a great job with. The premise of the movie is quite original and it goes to places that one might not expect. As an added plus, this high concept/dark comedy has one of the most hilariously awkward sex scenes that I've ever seen. There are also examples of how society tends to be easily triggered and also how cancel culture can rear its ugly head. I enjoyed this refreshingly quirky film. 8.5/10"

"Nic Cage, what a guy."

"Black comedy ( meaning there are consequences to actions) about an intellectual who begins to appear in people’s dreams and then their nightmares when he seeks to become more active. Explores the reality!? of social media and common hallucinations from its influence."

"This had some funny moments. The husband and wife's relationship came across as strained and strange to me from the beginning. This is a story of how insecurities can play into decision making in an extreme way. The ending was trash."

"Cage is so good in this film. And, it’s such a unique story. There are lots of awkward moments, which I love. It’s just entertaining from start to finish. So glad I happened across this on MAX and decided to push play."

"Pretty good. Nic Cage has a great performance, but as far as the story: TÁR did it better. 🤷🏿‍♂️"

"Awesome satire on cancel culture. I think if you like Charlie Kaufman you’ll enjoy this one."

"Nic. Cage did a great job in this movie. He definitely took me by surprise with his performance. The overall storyline was intriguing, and I appreciated that it showed the negative effects of cancel culture through social media. I feel that is a topic that is not talked about as much as it should be. My favorite parts of the movie were the nightmares. Not only did they get increasingly weird and freaky, but the way they were filmed made you feel like you were in a nightmare. With all of this said, my main complaint about the movie is that I felt like it hit its climax, and then everything just stayed there. I don't feel like much happened after the climax, and the ending lacked. There were also parts of the movie that I felt like didn't need to be added especially when there would be no explanation for some things happening. It was also pretty slow, so if you're tired going into this, then watch a different movie. "
