Made me fall asleep though!

Rating: 5/10 (9 September 2002)

It was with great anticipation I went to see Insomnia. With the acting talents of Al Pacino coupled with the director of the great film Memento, Christopher Nolan, surely we are on for a winner.
The old adage rang true. You can have all the talent in the world but if the story is not there you are onto a loser!
For two hours we trundle along with Pacino experiencing flash backs and Robin Williams breathing deeply down the phone. Hilary Swank helps to relieve the boredom with her investigations into Pacino's character but after five minutes of viewing we all know that she will save the day!
Predictable and dull. Wait to rent it on DVD if you really must!
