Dragonfly (Fullscreen) description "Belief gets us there," explains nun Linda Hunt to grieving widower Kevin Costner, an emergency room doctor whose ordered world is startled by "messages" from his dead wife. She's talking about the journey from life to death, but it describes the doctor's road from fact to faith equally well as he puzzles out the otherworldly events of his life. Costner's mourning comes off less lost and sad than simply emotionless and inert, but he finds good support from Kathy Bates as his sassy neighbor. Her appearances, along with a few startling horror-movie-type shocks, energize a film otherwise shrouded in loss, grief, and the hushed mood of supernatural spookiness. It's like a fusing of Ghost, The Sixth Sense, and The Mothman Prophecies, a New Age melodrama in a sentimental key that works through a rather contrived mystic mystery to a glowing climax. This is less a ghost story than a modern twist on the old-fashioned miracle. --Sean Axmaker |

| ♥♥♥♥♥ | Not really original but o.k. |
| A somewhat ponderous tale dealing with the question of what lies beyond. Not really spooky (although it attempts to be). Doctor loves his wife; wife dies, doctor has paranormal experiences; doctor thinks he's going nuts; doctor changes his mind and embraces the paranormal; doctor follows his ghost/wife's instructions and travels to remote location; doctor has closure and happy ending. Not really original but o.k. | |
