Sleeper

 

Release Year: 1973
Review: I'm not a big fan of slapstick comedy, and didn't enjoy Woody's other foray into the genre, Bananas. However, where Bananas failed to maintain Allen's hypnotic flow of wit, this one succeeds. Sure there are some corny slapstick moments, but they fit right in with Allen's genius and hilariously cynical portrayal of the future. This has instantly become one of my favorite Woody Allen films.
Rating: 4/5
