| Dr. Wayne Dyer's Drama | ||
| The Shift | ||
| Review by Ross Anthony | ||
|
Surprisingly well put together. As What the bleep do we know? sought to dramatize what is essentially new age and/or self-help philosophies, so does "The Shift" take the personal-growth theories of Dr. Wayne Dyer and weave them into a handful of storylines that progress through the film. Wayne Dyer appears as himself, comfortably, and warmly, explaining his ideals to a film crew dispatched to capture his interviews. It's a good film for anyone who's missing that happiness factor in their lives -- especially, those who have found success in their work. And there are a few scenes that really rock. That argument in the café scene knocks it out of the park -- excellent drama there! I've enjoyed lectures from Dyer in the past. Really, I think he and his message are wonderful. But, I would have liked to see their application to someone who's having a hard time just making a living. |
