Review of Sleepers (1996) by Manny C — 12 Sep 2010
Sleepers tries hard, really hard to be more than it it turns out to be, which is an average dramatic affair. A great cast headed by Robert De Niro, featuring everyone from Brad Pitt and Kevin Bacon to the late, immensely talented Brad Renfro is featured, but the movie falls terribly flat.
It tries to do right by a story about a group of kids abused in juvenile prison, but trips up big time when the stink of Hollywood creeps in.
