Joe's a deadbeat truck driver with a dead wife and daughter. Julie has the ability to enter the spirit world when out under intense pressure. Together, the two save Julie's comatose daughter Billie, but she's actually Joe's dead wife possessing the girl's body. Her returned spirit causes chaos with Joe caught in the middle.
The Hollywood Reporter by Frank Scheck
Veering heavily into sexual territory, the film is more a gothic melodrama than a horror film. It certainly feels like a waste of not only Cage's talent (although the actor has a climactic, literally fiery scene that will forever change the way you think about the pop song "Leader of the Pack"), but also Potente, whose potential has been sadly underrealized in American films.
The New York Times by Jeannette Catsoulis
While fragments of past, present and who-knows-what events flash past, Cage, bless him, fully commits to the nuttiness.
Los Angeles Times by Noel Murray
The actor’s fierce commitment turns Between Worlds into another solidly strange entry in the ever-expanding “Nicolas Cage movie” sub-genre.
Between Worlds is a down and dirty supernatural thriller with the faintest veneer of substance covering the sordid.
RogerEbert.com by Simon Abrams
Between Worlds is also, unfortunately, a weird "Twin Peaks" homage, complete with industrial band ohGr's not-so-industrial, "Twin Peaks"-y score and "Twin Peaks"-like theme during the opening credits sequence (performed by "Twin Peaks" composer Angelo Badalamenti, no less).
