Review of Insomnia (2002) by Matt C — 08 Jul 2014

Weird to see how this fits into Nolan's back catalogue as it's basically just a nuts and bolts thiller. It is fun though and gripping enough, not sure I quite ever bought into Mork as a bad guy though.

Pacino is also a little bit over the top (not like him eh?). The best performance is from Swank, what happened to her? There was a solid period in the lates 90's onwards when she was making some really good films but she seems to have just diappeared into Hollywood tosh.

Would like to watch the original film now to see how they stack up to each other.
