Review of Sleepers

Sleepers (1996)
4/10
not a lot of fun
28 June 2002
If you're going to make a movie that cries out against the raping and general mistreatment of children, then why make it appeal to child molesters? Not to say that if you enjoyed it, you're automatically a child molester, but the scenes depicting all the sexual torture and horribleness...the way everything was handled, I just wanted it all to be over, and you don't want people to feel that way about your movie, no matter what it's about.

On another unpleasant note, I used to work at a video store and a rather shady character who made a lot of interesting pornography choices kept asking if we had this movie in stock. I was relieved to inform him that we did not. It was the one day I was actually glad that we had such a meager selection.
