"Forget what Netflix is doing as LRF provides a Sandman story worthy of the big screen (or, for me, the IMAX screen). Depp is someone who needs more chances, as he uses this one to show why he is one of the greatest actors alive. Jennifer Kent is using her creative abilities to craft this epic while demanding convincing performances that have made this film and its predecessor a must-watch." - Dale Rennoll, New York Sun
"The Sandman films have been well-written and visually entertaining, but I can't help but feel disconnected to them. Johnny Depp does everything that is asked of him in the lead role (and more), but Dream simply makes for an unrelatable and poor film protagonist. And if a film's protagonist doesn't work, the film can't work as a whole." - Cooper Wilson, The Earl Hays Press
"Okay, I want to start off by saying this film is insane to the nth degree and I loved it. I wasn’t expecting to as I only liked the first one but I just felt like this is what I wanted from that film. The supernatural elements are upped here. This film perhaps isn’t as good performance wise, but everything else, in my opinion is better. I cannot wait to see more of Jonny Lee Miller as Lucifer." J. Johnson, DailyMovieNews.com
Rated PG-13 for violence, frightening images, sexual content and language
