David Rooney The Hollywood Reporter For anyone with sharp recollections of the heady rush of first love and the obsessive fixation on one person to the exclusion of all else, Dreams will strike chords. Feb 22, 2025 Full Review Guy Lodge Variety Haugerud’s writing is consistently surprising and elastic in its reach, as it picks out common insecurities and gaping ideological differences between three generations of women -- but reserves its most piercing compassion for the youngest of them. Feb 20, 2025 Full Review Peter Bradshaw Guardian This is an amiably talky film, and yet I never for a moment considered that the central relationship was being presented with anything less than seriousness, and there is much dry comedy to be enjoyed. Rated: 4/5 Feb 19, 2025 Full Review Nicholas Bell IONCINEMA.com With his latest film Dreams (Sex Love) (aka Drømmer), the final installment in his thematic trilogy, Norwegian director Dag Johan Haugerud clasps his most cohesive segment on a teenage girl’s ineffable, transformative brush with first love. Rated: 3/5 Feb 19, 2025 Full Review Serena Seghedoni Loud and Clear Reviews Hidden beneath the mystery of a student-teacher relationship in Dag Johan Haugerud’s Dreams (Drømmer) is the unfocused but empathetic tale of a girl trying to “figure herself out”.
