Sleepers Ratings & Reviews

    At first you're gripped, then a little lost, but then it wraps up like a present.

    It's a great movie about friendship.It also exposed some physical,verbal and sexual abuse of those poor helpless boys under the abusive power tripping of some guards. Joseph Perrino and Brad Renfro performed here so exquisitely. It's nice to see that Brad Renfro made a lot of good movies for us to remember him and his talent. Actor Ron Eldard also did well in this movie.
