Magazine Dreams | Full Movie | Movies Anywhere

There is no character here, but a walking time bomb that only acts when compelled to by outside influences.

Jonathan Majors delivers a truly brilliant performance, making you care about a character you simultaneously fear. MAGAZINE DREAMS is intense, dark, and artfully executed, showcasing a talented writer-director in Elijah Bynum.

Magazine Dreams is a something’s-wrong-with-men movie that doesn’t actually want to delve deeply into the pain its protagonist is experiencing, because it finds the external manifestations of his alienation more compelling.

This is a dynamic performance where the actor truly knows the character in every pore.

And while Magazine Dreams is carried by Majors and his performance, he doesn’t make up for a story that feels very one-sided, about a character who is difficult to invest in.
