The Perfect Sleep

This is basically a noir film with a few modern elements which then some may call it neo-noir. It is an interesting enough story and it is fairly well acted and made. Watched it around six years ago and is already fading from memory which isn't a good sign.

Utterly terrible, it's so overwrought and pretentious it's borderline funny. The constant droning ridiculous narration is mind numbing.

Brilliant shots, beautiful style and very nice plot. Add more than solid acting and its a pretty good result!

"An undeniably odd mixture of 80% noir, 15% action, and 5% random homage. I dug it."

Whoa, super camp. Purposefully over the top, cliched and melodramatic. To me it seemed almost like an audio book with moving pictures added after the fact for good measure, complete with the narrator commenting on said moving pictures. Thankfully this lessened somewhat as the film progressed. Oddly I liked this film against all indicators against but can nonetheless understand why people might walk out on it. The novelty kept me watching to the end.
