Critics Consensus

Sleepless wastes a talented cast -- and solid source material -- on a tired crime drama whose clichés rapidly outnumber its thrills.

Donald Clarke

Irish Times

Sleepless has the puzzling, 95-minutes feel of a doomed project that has been mercilessly edited to digestible proportions.

Rated: 2/5

Simran Hans

Observer (UK)

It's thin but taut and at a lean 95 minutes, it zips along at a propulsive, entertaining clip.

Rated: 3/5

Matthew Norman

London Evening Standard

The final twist is genuinely unexpected, though purely because of its irrelevance.

Director Baran Odar does well with this feature, and even gets an acceptable performance out of T.I.

A direction without enough nerve leaves 'Sleepless' in a limbo for videos. [Full Review in Spanish]

Times of Malta

As a story it is hackneyed and predictable... the rather lazy script padded with elaborate action-filled set pieces.

I have no idea what everybody’s talking about. I can’t believe the audience didn’t score it well. It was very entertaining. I’m not saying it’s gonna be memorable forever, but if you’re looking for a good action movie with a few decent turnaround and one very big one at the end, you will enjoy this. It’s old 80s and 90s action, but that’s what we need more of.

The best and most reliable crypto recovery expert service for me ever goes to CYBER GENIE HACK PRO! Wow; these guys are so good at their job and their customer service relationship is so friendly and reliable. I made a huge error with a transaction at work, sending $68,000 worth of BTC to the wrong wallet address. Tension arose and I was literally shaking even while I searched online for a possible solution. I contacted the customer support of the wallet address provider but they said they couldn't help. I was about to pay my company money I never spent till I read something about CYBER GENIE HACK PRO Recovery services and I immediately contacted them. Because the money hadn't been withdrawn and contacted on time, they were able to retrace the transaction, and the money was credited back to the company's wallet swiftly. How would I have explained to the company I am innocent, CYBER GENIE saved my life. "http: // cybergeniehackpro (.) x y z " (+12)(5)(25)(12)(03)(91)..

I don't know what all the low reviews are about. Personally, I enjoyed it & the last 30 seconds left me wanting more! Was it the best movie I ever watched? No. Was it the worst? No. Would I watch it again or recommend it, heck yeah.
