Leave your thoughts about Sleepless.
| New York TimesA.O. ScottSleepless, directed by Baran bo Odar, sets a low bar for itself, and then trips over it. |
| TheWrapAlonso DuraldeThe existence of a movie like Sleepless constitutes definite proof that there aren’t enough good scripts to go around; Foxx, Monaghan, Mulroney and Union (who finally gets introduced into the action in the silliest way possible) deserve much better than this. |
| The Film StageJohn FinkSleepless isn’t intellectually offensive or even all that embarrassing for the talent involved. Beat by beat, right down to its twists, it’s a predictable January thriller. |
| UproxxScott TobiasMostly, everyone goes dutifully through the motions, including Foxx, whose level of investment in the project is neutral at best. |
| ChrisStuckmann.comChris StuckmannFar better than most January releases, Sleepless is an enjoyable action thriller with a great turn from Jamie Foxx. Escapist entertainment. Nothing more, nothing less. |
| AV ClubIgnatiy VishnevetskyIt might not be Donald Westlake, but it does its thing: meaningless, nonstop violence and movement, enacted by a large cast of characters who are only looking out to survive into the next scene. |
| Film InquiryJim DixonSleepless is better than it looks, but not as good as it could be. |
| Times (UK)Kevin MaherA smart and speedy cop movie that occasionally reaches for greatness. |
| NOW TorontoNorman WilnerHonestly? You could do a lot worse this winter, and you probably already have. |
| FanboyNation.comSean MulvihillFor those of us who like some quick, no nonsense ass-kicking action, Sleepless will provide the simplest thrills and entertainment. |
