 Dull, But Has A Few Genuinely Amusing Moments October 25, 2006

I've been wanting to see this movie for years and just caught it on IFC. I don't remember any of the characters names, so forgive me in that area.
I want to start with a few things. There are four genuinely amusing moments in this movie; The first is in the opening sequence where one of the main characters Frank (Craig Sheffer) tells Eric Stoltz why his name is Frank (his mother had intercourse with Frank Sinatra), when one of the character's mother-in-law comes to visit and everyone finds her so boring they get stoned in the bathroom (not that, but the things they say to her is pretty amusing), Parker Posey's nude scene (nice!), and Quentin Tarantino's cameo as a partygoer named Sid who explains the homoerotic subtext of Top Gun. The movie's not a complete waste of time, but it's set up like this (forgive me, I don't remember two of the three main characters names). It opens in a car with Frank, Eric Stoltz, and Meg Tilly. Stoltz proposes to Tilly with a 10 cent ring, the movie flashes to the day before their wedding where Tilly shares a kiss with Frank. Frank is deeply, madly in love with Tilly who keeps insisting about how she's married. In many of the scenes, the characters are drunk or high; There are times where this movie is really boring, it's fueled completely by conversation (which isn't always a bad thing, but fails here);
Stoltz, Tilly, and Sheffer are good enough for their roles...But Tarantino steals the whole show in his scene. The thing that makes what he's saying better is that it makes perfect sense. The movie isn't a complete waste of time (Tarantino's rant is worth the $2 rental fee). But, another thing, for people looking for nudity or sex. There's only one scene of nudity (Posey) and it's nice, but brief.
GRADE: C+
 Worthless, Except for Tarantino's Cameo January 30, 2006

"Sleep with Me" would be completely worthless if not for a Quentin Tarantino cameo in which he riffs on the homoerotic undertones of "Top Gun." That lasts about two minutes. The remainder of the film is just dull relationship philosophy spouted by pretentious, ersatz neo-Bohemian characters. Except for Tarantino's "Top Gun" bit (and the twenty seconds or so when Parker Posey has her shirt off) there's nothing worthwhile here.
Dated But Hasn't Lost Its Touch March 11, 2004

This is no reflection on the quality of the film, but Sleep With Me loses its edge after ten years. It's full of witty, 90's style banter. This was a great film when romantic comedies were in. The actors were hilarious and I enjoyed Craig Sheffer for the first time ever. I don't watch a lot of his films but this one is entertaining. I saw it in 1994 and was hooked on it then. Since then my tastes have changed and I've gotten attached to other films. This is the perfect date movie providing a realistic, comedic look at the differences between women and men and the problems that can surface within a circle of friends.

This is one of my favorite movie. The interaction between the characters in conflict situations is so real. I love the scene in the living room were Stoltz and Tilley start getting into it. Its one of those scenes with dialogue flowing amongst a whole group of characters. The Umbrella scene seamlessly transitions from the realism of this movie into poetic romance that is absolute movie magic, with Tilley just lighting up the screen. Far all the discussion about the sword fight scene, at the end of the day, the funniest part of this movie is the poker scenes with Parker and the actress from Chasing Amy.I haven't seen the DVD yet. Does it have any special features ?
