A fascinating and troubling document of the rise and fall of e-commerce, "e-Dreams" showcases the incredible story of Kozmo.com, brainchild of the co-founders Joseph Park and Yong Kang, both in their mid-20s. An Internet start-up that began with only 10 employees, in just a few years Kozmo.com garnered deals with Amazon.com and Starbucks, amassing millions in investments and cross-promotions, expanded into 11 cities with 3,000 employees, and, as quickly as it had grown, vanished during the Internet economy's collapse in April 2000. -- © 2001 Seventh Art Releasing [More]

Reviews for E-Dreams
Happily for Mr. Chin -- though unhappily for his subjects -- the invisible hand of the marketplace wrote a script that no human screenwriter could have hoped to match.
That the e-graveyard holds as many good ideas as bad is the cold comfort that Chin's film serves up with style and empathy.
Even though it's common knowledge that Park and his founding partner, Yong Kang, lost Kozmo in the end, you can't help but get caught up in the thrill of the company's astonishing growth.
The film delivers what it promises: A look at the "wild ride" that ensues when brash young men set out to conquer the online world with laptops, cell phones and sketchy business plans.
The film's images give a backbone to the company and provide an emotional edge to its ultimate demise.
