If this is what Stephen King movies have disintegrated into, then it's time to pull the plug.

| Original Score: F | Nov 15, 2019

Obviously, the hole in Dreamcatcher was a little too small thus allowing a lot of the bad aspects of the film to stick in the web along with the good.

| Nov 7, 2019

Not only the excess of visual effects removes part of the film's quality, but also the plot inconsistencies occur non-stop. [Full Review in Spanish]

Dreamcatcher isn't half-bad. Or even a quarter-bad. What it is, however, is sometimes meandering and confusing.

| Dec 10, 2018

Perhaps due to the talent of everyone involved, Dreamcatcher moves with an oddly exhilarating awfulness that sets it apart from more run-of-the-mill horror films, which lack the imagination and budget to be so thoroughly misconceived.

| Dec 10, 2018

Dreamcatcher is unspeakably bad -- and shockingly so -- considering that it's an adaptation of a Stephen King novel, from the director of The Big Chill (Lawrence Kasdan) and the writer of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid (William Goldman).

| Dec 10, 2018

Dreamcatcher is pretty much a special-effects movie, with uneven results.

| Dec 7, 2018

Dreamcatcher is a horror, sci-fi fantasy, buddy movie, a military thriller, a mangled crate of X-Files, and a mass of half-baked clichés.

| Dec 7, 2018

As soon as Morgan Freeman's alien hunter/military commander turns up, a riveting movie starts morphing into a predictable villain-on-the-warpath action flick.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Feb 9, 2014

This Stephen King is way too scary for kids.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Dec 22, 2010

There's a great cast, and a great director, but ultimately the finishing product fails to live up to any potential.

Call me crude -- I have to love a scene of suspense built around fallen toothpicks and a toilet monster.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Dec 6, 2005

| Original Score: 2/5 | Dec 6, 2005

'Even I don't trust my judgment anymore,' [Freeman] warns in one of the movie's trash heap of unintentionally funny lines.

| Dec 6, 2005

An interesting story about personal relationships turns into an alien/monster/save the world story with some really gross scenes.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jul 5, 2005

Those looking for a stomach-turning alien film may be pleased, but those looking for a smarter psychological thriller will be sorely disappointed.

| Original Score: D | Jun 20, 2005

I challenge you to name a movie with a more convoluted or preposterous storyline.

What begins as a pique to our collective curiosity quickly degenerates into what is essentially a shootout between the good guys and the monsters.
