Review of Sleepers (1996) by Paul R — 07 Jul 2012
Robert De Niro, Dustin Hoffman, Kevin Bacon, Brad Pitt - Need I go on? Sleepers is an excellent crime drama following the story of four men who were friends as children when an unfortunate prank accidentally killed someone.
They were sent to reform school where they were beaten and raped by the guards. Their paths cross once again as adults and they take the opportunity for revenge on the guards that brutalised them as children.
This film is extremely well put together, very engaging with a great cast and a heart breaking story. I've always thought this film deserved more credit. Give it a try, I'm sure you won't be disappointed.
