This movie made ME interested in INSOMNIA!!

Rating: Null/10 (21 October 2002)

I have suffered from insomnia for a long time. I enjoyed watching Pacino. He looked soooo tired by the end of the movie. All the characters were good. There were a few odd scenes, such as when Pacino barfed in the alley and then looked at a dead dog. One thing that bothered me was this: Why didn't Al Pacino just tape some black plastic bags over those windows to make it dark? Shoving tons of furniture doesn't cover all the WINDOW SPACE. Trust me, I've been there before.
The plot was decent. Robin Williams did a good job and didn't overact at all. Good extras on the DVD as well, including a documentary on insomnia...the SLEEPING DISORDER.
It's hard to miss with Al Pacino. I am glad I saw this. I am now very curiuous what it's like to live in a place where it's either light or dark for 6 months at a time. Plus, the scenery made me yearn for another Alaskan vacation.
