Delighted this dawn to begin the day with a delicious Cyres Coffee while reading the first review of Douglas Vermeeren’s ‘The Opus’ movie here in The Cafe of Dreams:
This afternoon I went to a pre-screening of The Opus. I loved it. The Secret isn’t really even comparable they are so different. Each one is great in it’s own way. But I did find that Opus gave much more practical advice and stuff I could apply into my life instantly. it was certainly not as “New Agey” and it wasn’t as mysterious. It was a more inspirational/motivational feel and direct information. The speakers were also very good. I think that The Secret only showed a fraction of what powerful people these are. I found the story in the Opus was absolutely incredible. I loved it. I am a little shy to admit that I almost cried at parts. It’s really powerful. I highly recommend this film to everyone as a must see. But go in without the idea to compare it to the Secret. It is NOT the Secret. The Secret was great. But they are SO different. And I liked The Opus better.
Much appreciation to cody B for gifting this view.
Dear Visitor, have you seen The Opus? Would love to know your thoughts about it.

I saw the Opus tonight and it was absolutely brutal. It was missing depth, energy and heart. Some of the speakers had wise words to offer, but the overall effect was flat. Dead silence in the theatre, except for those getting their coats and leaving. The acting in the ’story within the story’ was B grade at best. Laughable, and not in a good way, at many points. I sympathize with Douglas, this is one Opus that is going to lose serious money.
