The afterlife movie soars to new visionary heights in 'What Dreams May Come.'

rotten:
If the film's morose sentimentality sidesteps ludicrousness, it's also not very dramatic.

rotten:
It's not much, other than the vision thing.

rotten:
In both concept and execution, they testify to painfully banal sensibilities.
