Sleepwalking Reviews

Despite its snail's pace, the acting is truly spectacular. Robb and Theron in particular were fantastic.

I fell asleep 3 words into the plot.

Brave and dark with a stark realism, plus strong and effective performances from it's main cast and a especially young Jodie Foster-esque turn by Annasophia Robb

This is one sad movie! Not much else to say about this one!

Le gentil tonton un peu timide et benêt se prend en charge et devient un père pour sa nièce, abandonnée par sa mère...

Slowburning brilliance. Touching and subtle.

Even though the pacing is slow, it is a really good movie. Spoiler:
I find it interesting that the hero is a child abductor and killer... it really makes you think.

this movie had good performances and i was really interested at the beginning but the shitty ending ruined da whole film. I thought itd be a deeper movie.

Charlize Theron gave me headache just seeing the 1st 5 mins of this movie..Being annoying with her typical performance,..

Decent performances with interesting plot.

James Reedy, é um homem que leva uma vida simples e ordinária até o dia em que sua sobrinha é, aparentemente, abandonada pela mãe, sua irmã Joleen. Ele então, se vê obrigado a cuidar da menina, fazendo com que tenha que confrontar seus medos e fantasmas do passado.

despite the strong and crude performances,sleepwalking is just a depressed movie with little to tell.

The acting was very good in this movie, a little sad but realistic drama this is.

This movie was intense to me. There were parts I would have done different but other then that. It had a good story and Nick Stahl won my heart in this. HE was so good. I just cant believe it. So was Anna sophia Robb and Charlize Theron.

This is a touching story of an Uncle and his niece and James and his sister and their background and pain. Dennis Hopper is hardcore wicked in this movie. It would have been good to have like more flashback in this.

But the part that made me cry the most was when he was in his bed ..after drinking and the woman was wiping his forehead. And he cried so much and you could feel the pain in your stomach. It just made tears run down my face.What a great wonderful touching scene. Great actors and good story. I recommend. So much pain in this movie.Sickness and the effects of it.

A rather somber and slow paced drama anchored by truly fine performances. Nick Stahl and AnnaSophia Robb, the movie belongs to them.

Wonderfully life drama about the relationship between a 12-year-old girl and her uncle.
Superb, naturalistic performances by the three lead actors, Nick Stahl, Charlize Theron and AnnaSophia Robb, make us truly care about the people they are portraying and the things that are happening to them.
In Sleepwalking the scenery and climate could not have been more dull, barren and depressing. There are boring, depressing highways that go for miles without any beautiful scenery. Every location in this film is flat, dreary and depressing. This added to the disturbing impact of the movie. The people who live in the area of the movie are colourless, dull and depressing.

Summary: When James's (Nick Stahl) sister, Joleen (Charlize Theron), shows up with her 11-year-old daughter, Tara (AnnaSophia Robb), he doesn't think twice about welcoming them into his home. But when Joleen skips town without her daughter, James is thrust into a role he's grossly unprepared for. At risk of losing Tara to foster care, James hits the road with his niece. Along the way, the pair develop a genuine bond and discover a true sense of family.

My Thoughts: "Although I liked the film, it had many potholes. It really didn't fill in some of the blanks for me. But for what it was, it still a good film. Nick Stahl and AnnaSophia were really good in this. Dennis Hopper, was good in this as well. His character is a controlling, hateful man. Its so easy to hate him in this film. As many probably have, or will say, this movie is quite depressing. It really never lightens up. It's a bit slow in some spots and could have ran a little shorter in time. But all in all a good enough flick with a sad and disturbing story."

Sleepwalking is a beautiful movie. AnnaSophia Robb and Nick Stahl work great together. I loved everything about the movie.

Great performances by all actors, a dark movie with portrays life on the rough side of the world, outside ones comfort zone and in desperate and urgent times. This is a good movie which leaves oneself with haunting thoughts and a chance to evaluate our own self. Only drawback was the slow pace of the film.
