Eight visually rich vignettes drawn from Kurosawa’s own dreams—fox weddings and vanished orchards, a soldier’s ghosts, a walk through Van Gogh’s canvases, nuclear nightmares, and a water-mill utopia—meditate on childhood, art, mortality, and humanity’s uneasy bond with nature.

Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
There's greatness in the film's first hour.
– Terrence Rafferty,
New Yorker,
4 Mar 2013
rotten:
In the uneven career of Akira Kurosawa, two limiting factors were sentimentality and preachiness, and both come to the fore in this 1990 collection of eight dreams.
– Jonathan Rosenbaum,
Chicago Reader,
9 Feb 2007
rotten:
Only during a final procession does the old Kurosawa magic get a brief look-in, but by then the hackneyed moralising and dramatic languor have ensured that, despite the well-meaning message, it's hard to care.
– Geoff Andrew,
Time Out,
24 Jun 2006
fresh:
It's something altogether new for Kurosawa, a collection of short, sometimes fragmentary films that are less like dreams than fairy tales of past, present and future. The magical and mysterious are mixed with the practical, funny and polemical.
– Vincent Canby,
New York Times,
20 May 2003
fresh:
Dreams will knock your eyes out without ignoring the mind and heart.
– Peter Travers,
Rolling Stone,
