Still, I did have the nagging feeling that the whole thing doesn't quite add up to more than the sum of its parts. The overarching romance between Jeremy and Elizabeth would feel more genuine if I actually ever bought Jude Law as a sad-sack who couldn't get any girl he wanted. The guy's very sweet, and a good actor, but is miscast here. Then again, in dreams, nothing ever quite adds up, either.

Movie Grade: B
