Omnibus films and movies about dreams are both areas that can be problematic. But the two ideas work quite well together. There honestly isn't a bad segment here. The ones by Jissoji and Nishikawa are a little bland, but only in comparison to the others. The dreams run the gamut from strange to funny to gross to scary to tender. The concept allows all the directors to flex their stylistic muscles, and the results are wildly imaginative and often quite beautiful. This was a really nice surprise.
