Review of In My Dreams

You know, I like romantic movies if the leading characters are charming enough and the story is believable enough. And maybe the situations and supporting players are also believable enough. But not if things seem contrived enough that I can predict what can happen or think "How convenient!" like when this Mario character suddenly declares he's not in love with the leading lady and instead he's into her assistant! And this thing about the Katharine McPhee and Mike Vogel characters actually "meeting" each other in a dream and seeing how "perfect" they are for each other in Real Life because of those dreams did not completely hold butter or water for me, either! It was nice to see JoBeth Williams, who I long remember from Stir Crazy, Poltergeist, and Switch, on screen again, so there's that. And this wasn't a complete waste of time for me or my mom. It's just if the story doesn't seem real enough for me, I can't completely get into it. But I respect anyone who falls for such trifle...
