BootDigest Such a frustrating disappointment
Rijndri Load of rubbish!!
XoWizIama Excellent adaptation.
Mandeep Tyson The acting in this movie is really good.
Gurcan Ozdemir I rarely write reviews but I think Sleep Tight deserves one.I watched this movie because the plot sounded interesting and the average rating was cool. The plot is really interesting but the execution fails I must say. Plus, maybe except one scene there was absolutely nothing to be thrilled or feel suspense so if you're planning to watch for that purpose - like me - get ready to be heart broken.I gave 3 starts because although the story lacks a lot, the acting of Cesar and Clara were top-of-the-notch.From this point on there will be spoilers.We are faced with a super-concierge who gets away with everything he does thanks to the ultra-stupidity of his neighbors and the police.It is stated several times throughout the movie that he can not be happy. Fine, we understand that but the reason? I was expecting to discover that as the movie evolved but in the end we fail to get even a clue.He has access to keys for all apartments but somehow he gets away from all situations with excuses that you'd believe only if you have a two digit IQ. Clara's boyfriend faces the concierge instead of calling the police when he finds out his tools hidden in the bed. Really??And when he gets caught in their apartment. He is inside but the door is locked and Calara & BF buy his bullshit??? He tries to go out without the bag taking only the keys???Anyway..there are many points that could be written down which make the credibility of "his success" close to zero and that's my biggest problem with this movie.
Un Zievereir Launching straight into a mysterious and then thrilling story, it steers in a curious direction. It is very well paced, performed, penned and directed, and although the general subject matter is the average stalker film, the psycho's motives are slightly different.The happy young woman, full of life and future, is an ideal victim as it is happiness and life force (not the physical human being) the psychopath wishes to destroy. Unlike psychos in films, he doesn't wield a knife, and doesn't wish to consume, manipulate, kill or possess another human being. In fact, his only murder victim is unintentional and therefore collateral. From the primary victim he removes energy, her love interest, and far worse. From the old lady he removes a necessary illusion, and from the young girl he removes security and innocence. There is also his invalid mother as well as the cleaner and her son who fall victim to his scheming. In fact not only does he successfully remove the joie de vivre from the victims but he manages to seal their fates for the rest of their lives as the denouement shows him shrouding the main victim in eternal desperate sadness.Thrilling, interesting, and effective this Spanish thriller-horror certainly stands out in its genre.
adonis98-743-186503 You wake day after day to the comfort and security of your home. But how safe is it really? Mientras duermes or also known as Sleep Tight is one of the creepiest and best films about stalking it's very well made full of tension and another great performance by Luis Tosar (Cell 211) it's also a film that actually makes sense most of the time unlike other horror movies with the exact same plot that get a bit goofy now it does have some issues tho for example the ending wasn't as effective as i hoped it was going to be, certain moments kinda felt a bit dumb and nobody understood who was doing all this things inside a big apartment there was also this girl that at times kinda felt out of place and could easily expose his dirty secrets, other than that a great performance by Tosar and Marta Etura as Clara but also a very well made movie (8/10)
spencergrande6 Sleep Tight is a lean and tight thriller. Not a horror movie in the strictest sense, more Hithcockian in execution. It's really Rear Window meets Psycho but without the follow-through. Cesar sneaks into people's apartments at night, since he's the concierge and has the keys for every one of them, and does stuff to mess with them and interfere with their lives. The film seems to ask questions about what a protagonist is in a story told this way, but I'm not sure it ever becomes more than superficial. The tension and the audience relation with Cesar when he's trapped in a woman's apartment would seem to indicate we are on the wrong side (what does that mean? do we actually feel bad for Cesar?).
