Ratings and reviews

If you like most movies and usually find things that you like in those movies, than you may like this movie. If you're below 30 years old, and have simple tastes than you might like this. Also if you don't watch many movies and just want to see something with some action in it, you may enjoy this movie. However, if you watch a lot of movies and have a practical taste in writing and acting, than you will most likely not enjoy this movie. The plot and circumstances are too reminiscent of movies past, and there is regrettable acting, as well as plot points that are so misplaced that you just might cringe. There are played out moments that occur "only in the movies," these situations would never work in real life, and it interferes with the immersion. The lack of immersion is the main offender in this movie, and I suppose it's a combination of the things I mentioned that prevent it. Since you can't ever get into it enough to remain interested, it ends up becoming hard to pay attention to/finish movie, but like a hinted at earlier.... If you like typical mindless action flicks, or traditional "B" movies, than this might find a slot in your movie collection.

Junk! Sleepless? More like Talentless! So awful, and the production values.. Wow, even in Vegas and they can't get B roll.. What happened here? Omg i came back to see if it redeemed itself but wow did it NOT! I could give examples of all the rediculous plot, story and general mistakes but it would be spoilers and at that point it would just be to satisfy my own ego or need to demonstrate how 'great' i am for catching these things, albeit they're glaring and cant be missed haha.. Anyway my point is judge for yourself if you are bored enough and can afford the time and money waste... But as a whole lets not be armchair critics and ruin the films for anyone else reading these reviews in hopes of gleaning whether or not they want to experience it for themselves, cause it just ends up tainting the experience for everyone

It had great action.... but.... The storyline was weak, the chase and running sequences were shit, you running from million/billion drug dealers in a casino steal clothes off everybody you knock down to stay low, don't hide drugs in ceiling, hide them in the locker in the 1st place... Mr cop. Going to a meet like that I'd have an Arnold Schwarzenegger arsenal in my car. Characters were well developed and could have a Part 2... Just get someone on the small details... I mean really a single standard issue sidearm courtin 35bricks and you'll never convince me of a car chase with no cars n Vegas, come on! Poor choice cops.
