Strange and disturbing nightmares disturb the sleep and tranquility of Claire Cooper, a young mother who lives with her husband and daughter in a provincial town. When the tranquility of the area is broken by a series of murders, Claire realizes that her nightmares are not simple: the woman is indeed in telepathic contact with the mind of the serial killer. When the latter kidnaps her daughter, Claire will try to track him down without the help of the police. Directed by Neil Jordan ("Interview with the Vampire", "The Company of Wolves") "In Dreams" is a thriller that does not fully convince: good up to the middle it gradually loses itself until it resolves in a disappointing and unconvincing ending. The cast is of good level, in which the presence of Annette Bening ("American Beauty") and Robert Downey Jr. ("Wonder Boys") is to be noted, as well as the screenplay; excellent the sequences in which we witness Claire's "nightmare-visions".
