Sleepers Ratings & Reviews
- klit7523 april 2026I had forgotten just how awesome this cast was. Robert Deniro, Brad Pitt, totally spaced out Dustin Hoffman back when he was still a big deal, Kevin Bacon... Normally when this many big names sign on I find it's a disappointment but this was even better than i remember from 40 years ago. At times it's hard to watch but at its heart it's telling a story of how ugly child abuse is and how the trauma is permanent. The writing and acting are solid. Id have to say it feels a lot different looking at it through adult eyes with a kid of my own. He's too young for this but I do already try to impart on him how sometimes seemingly harmless shenanigans can have unfair consequences. I don't know exactly why but this movie left a mark on me.
- Oʂɯαʅԃσ Rσყҽƚƚ5 maart 2026Sleeper(1996) is a deeply emotional and brilliant film that was overlooked in 1996. It deals with the past and how events from the past can be instrumential in shaping the present. The movie was very controversial due to the subject matter.
- ርልዪረ16 juli 2025It'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.
