《美夢成真》是邁克．凱曼至今最出色的配樂作品之一，甚至在我看來，它對這個動人故事的真情詮釋，只怕還強過導演過於夸張浮華的視覺堆砌．其實這個故事的本身實在十分迷人，充滿了感動，溫柔，傳奇與想像力，導演的唯美風格固然塑造出不少動人的時刻，然而如果一些景像能夠處理的更收斂一些，或許那種”此景只應天上有”的瑰麗，才能真正的，令整個故事更加炫爛動人，而不是淪為令人視覺疲勞的色彩包袱。

For reasons never made entirely clear, Ennio Morricone's completed score for the 1988 afterlife fantasy What Dreams May Come was rejected by producers just weeks prior to the film's arrival in theaters. Composer Michael Kamen was recruited to replace Morricone at the 11th hour, and for a rush job, it's a remarkably accomplished and creative work, beautifully conveying the possibilities of life after death in a manner that's neither heavy-handed nor ponderous. By turns upliftingly radiant and suffocatingly melancholy, What Dreams May Come boasts a dreamlike lyricism that successfully captures the otherness of director Vincent Ward's onscreen milieu. At the same time, however, Kamen communicates the universal emotions at the story's core, evoking love and loss with genuine compassion and sensitivity.
