The best, most effective sleeper film I ever saw was
Moment by Moment with Lily Tomlin and John Travolta. It put me under after about five minutes, despite my wife trying to wake me up every now and then.
I was awake when she muttered "You know, these two people can't act."
This incredible waste of film (right up there with
Mattelfield Earth, uh, sorry,
Battlefield Earth) is given its due in
this review.
CAUTION: SOME ADULT LANGUAGE.
