Editor T.M. Christopher shaped the rhythm. On an edit-heavy film, the editor does more to control your pulse than the director.

Netflix has made some really fun movies, and In Your Dreams is definitely one of them. It has a surprisingly complex story, as well as some colorful visuals, a charming cast, and a fast pace that perfectly benefits the movie and its concept. My only criticisms with it are the ending, which felt like a copout, and the fact that this movie was NOT a musical (that's more of a nitpick rather than a direct criticism). Still a lot of fun, though.
