Review of Sleeper (2012) by Hari A — 11 Oct 2014
A chaplinesque sci-fi slapstick comedy by Woody Allen which manages to entertain again. Even though it can be placed under the slapstick genre, the jokes are not loud nor are in-your-face. The jokes are intelligent, sprinkling the occasional dumb moments - exactly what you would expect from Allen. Woody plays Miles Monroe, a cryogenically frozen person who is woken up 200 years later by a group of rebel scientists in order to overthrow the dystopic government.
The story follows Monroe's misadventures in the future as he tries to comprehend the happenings around him. Huge vegetables, robots, orgasmatron (the best), shiny drug orb and epic one liners make this movie a silly great watch.
