SnoReptilePlenty Memorable, crazy movie
Ceticultsot Beautiful, moving film.
Chirphymium It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional
Curt Watching it is like watching the spectacle of a class clown at their best: you laugh at their jokes, instigate their defiance, and "ooooh" when they get in trouble.
Benedito Dias Rodrigues Woody Allen don't needs any kind of words to explain your own geniality,but to me there are a strange thing to try to understand such weird fact,in the real voice of Allen is good and funny,but in Brazil has a person who dubbed him in a special way...and believe me is much better than real one...can be sounds freak but works to me,when l watch in dubbed version l found more funny than the original...l need to discover the real name of this amazing guy!!! Resume: First watch: 1996 / How many: 2 / Source: TV-DVD / Rating: 7
theoneandonlyjimmypage Who would have thought that science would eventually tell us that the best things for "ya" are smoking cigarettes, chocolate and barbecued steaks? Who would believe a totalitarian world where everyone just goes along with, nobody caring about, anything? People have sex with orbs and chambers. Robots serve all. Dystopia!Your prophets beware...this movie is funny. Our only hope is i in a small minded health food clerk placed in suspended animation two centuries earlier.Woody Allen is at his Best.
Ross622 Woody Allen's Sleeper is one of the funniest science- fiction movies that I have ever seen before, but it is a movie that I think of considering to be a science fiction movie satire spoofing classics that were made before it such as Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968), or maybe the original version of Planet of the Apes (1968). Allen's film tells the story of a nerdish store owner named Miles Monroe (played by Woody Allen) who is going to go on a hospital checkup in the year 1973 (which is coincidentally the same year that this movie was made) and all of the sudden after a huge mistake happens he is awakened 200 years later in the year 2173 and after that he finds out he is in the future and also has become a wanted fugitive as well as being considered an illegal alien and thane after a small getaway from the police he meets up with this untalented poet named Luna (played by Diane Keaton) who end up falling in love with one another. Then Miles gets captured and brainwashed into thinking he is Miss America and it is up to Luna to save him, get rid of their leader's nose, as well as to trick rebels. this movie is funny as can be as well as one of the funniest movies of the 1970s, and it is a very well made movie that not only belongs on a list of the best science fiction movies ever made it also belongs on a list of the best comedic movies ever made.
namashi_1 Woody Allen aka Mr.Cinema Delivers A Winner Once Again in his 1973 cult-classic 'Sleeper'. A Terrific Sci-Fi Comedy, that comes in-tact with a host of good laughs.'Sleeper' Synopsis: A nerdish store owner is revived out of cryostasis into a future world to fight an oppressive government.'Sleeper' is amazing work. Allen & Marshall Brickman's Screenplay is a work of genius. They come up with a terrific concept, which translates into an equally terrific film. Each & Everything works! Allen's Direction, As Always, is Awe-Inspiring. Cinematography by David M. Walsh is good. Editing & Art Design, are wonderful.Performance-Wise: Allen delivers a marvelous performance in the central role. He embodies the character & delivers one of his finest performances. He's a treat to watch from start to finish. Diane Keaton is ever-dependable. John Beck is first-rate. Susan Miller leaves a mark. Others lend support.On the whole, 'Sleeper' is simply, unmissable. Mr.Cinema RULES!
