A cops/sheriffs gone bad film! A law enforcement officer is raising a daughter under strict ownership conditions because the mother died years ago when she (the daughter) was very young. What happened to her mother? You'll have to watch this movie to see. It's loaded with 'on the edge of your seat' and 'nail-biting' suspense and anticipations. You really never know what's going to happen next, a mystery in a way. Just like another viewer says, it's unpredictable. I'm going to recommend this movie to my young, 12 year old cousin and her family because she likes thriller and horror movies. I think because she's coming into her teenage years, she might enjoy this movie as well. We watched a horror movie called 'The Shallows) together the other night and she enjoyed it, went back to tell her family about it and they watched it together the next night. Sometimes I often wonder about age-appropriate movies, but she wanted to watch horror and we allowed it. The Shallows wasn't that horrific though and neither is this film. Just give it a go! I think you'll enjoy it! This is what I would consider a low-budget, B-rated flick, but it's done well.

Actually I didn't expect lot from this one in the beginning but after watching it I am delighted that I found a hidden gem in it. This flick impressively maintains it pace as well. Teenagers were brilliant in their roles specially the male character. For the given budget this movie got lot to offer . I bet you will find complete package of drama, thriller, crime, romance in this one. So it's worth to give a shot at it....

Im always late to the party. I haven't set foot in a theater in 6 years. I guess I'm the guy who just prefers watching movies at home with the ol lady, and we watch a plenty of 'em. 2 maybe 3 a week. That may not seem like many to some folks but it's just the right amount to be able to watch, enjoy (or not) and discuss. MEAN DREAMS is my kinda movie...WHY? Because it's the kind of movie I can relate to. It's basically set in the sort of place I live in. The characters are the sort of people I interact with daily, so therefore it's the type of movie I UNDERSTAND. I'm a wannabe writer for lack of a better term, and I am currently writing a story that I hope becomes a novel, that in turn becomes a screenplay, that in turn becomes a movie. My story is pretty much a first cousin to MEAN DREAMS. so there you go.

S l o w - and not "good slow"... held my attention, barely. Well-acted, but that's not enough. I'm glad all the Bill Paxton fans on here are thrilled with his last effort and all, but, my God, there is barely enough drama to support 60 minutes of film, let alone four hours' worth... Oh the movie wasn't four hours long? It sure felt like it was!

One of Bill's last movies and one of he best acting performances. The entire movie is well acted and well directed. It's a little slow and doesn't really seem to build and doesn't even have much of a plot and no sub plots either. Still it is worth seeing. It just lacked a little energy and lacked complications. What really dropped it down to a 5 for we was there wasn't an ending. They didn't tie up any loose ends. What happened to them? Did they end up getting caught and go to prison? I don't know because there was no ending.

No spoiler here. Actually not much about the movie at all accept that what ever you do don't pass it up. Everyone does great jobs with their roles and what can you say about first love. We have all had them, they are special and seem to mean everything, life and death, the world. We older folks forget that is what our young people are going through today just as we did once.... we hard on them, most of the time pushing them away. Yea, I am guilty too lol... Remember that... But mostly watch this movie for good old bill. for my money one of the most consistent, brilliant method actors ever. He took a role and lived it, made it his own. He did this for every role and was putting on a fantastic television show. I can't even get up the energy to watch it now that he is gone, it won't be the same and not sure what they will do with it. He was making a great character there that had some great depth and he seemed to be enjoying that. Bill was not your normal mammy whiny Hollywood type, he was a good man that might say what was on his mind but He always knew where his money came from, us..... will miss you bill

I love Bill Paxton's acting and expected soooooo much more than this slow, boring drawn out waste of time.. and as with most train wreck movies.. it had an ending that was so disappointing I couldn't believe Bill Paxton had anything to do with it. I would rate it ZERO stars if I could.

A very nice last film for Hollywood icon, Bill Paxton. Good movie of young love, a daughter being on the run from your corrupt father, who just so happens to be law enforcement, and Blaze the dog...just loved him. Overall a decent film of boy who meets girl, boy steals from girls abusive father, boy and girl and now on the run for their lives. Nothing new here, but this review is more about paying respect to the late Bill Paxton, who I thought was just hilarious is Aliens and Predator 2. Overall great story and acting by these those young actors Sophie Nélisse and Josh Wiggins. Highly recommended to anyone who likes a good story and wants to pay homage to Paxton. RIP Bill.

Greetings from Lithuania. "Mean Dreams" (2016) is a highly involving drama / thriller set almost in a middle of nowhere in USA. While the story here isn't the most original, it was done so good that i was involved into this movie from the opening till last shot. Acting by all three leads were great. And i have to admire once again of the late Bill Paxton - he was simply outstanding here in playing one of his most mean characters ever - what a terrific and legendary character actor we lost - still can't believe it. Writing, directing were also first rate as well as brilliant cinematography - it kinda gets you right in to this place - brilliant camera work. Overall, is a great underrated gem. Its a drama thriller with not the most original or unique story which have seen before, but its just done so well that its hard not to recommend this movie.
