  The MTV Movie Awards should have created a "best tired as hell performance" category just for Al Pacino

  First 30 minutes: "Wow this guy is really good at his job"

  30 minutes in: "Never mind"

  Love the concept of exploring the psyche of a bad cop who thinks he’s a good cop. Do not love Pacino’s performance. It’s all weird drawls and growls, plus lots of blank stares and wrinkled foreheads with the occasional “GAHHHBAGE DUMP!”s. Nolan had room to improve, and then he did.

  Insomnia is a remake of the Norwegian film that came out in 1997 and while it shares the exact same plot, I thought Christopher Nolan made a well-crafted psychological thriller with some solid performances. I don’t usually approve remakes that try to emulate the story of the original without bringing anything new, but I haven’t seen the Norwegian version so I can’t compare them. While it might seem like a predictable and generic detective film at first, once the little twist happens we are drawn into a very interesting confrontation between the killer and one of the detectives. The hallucinatory sequences get a bit repetitive, but I appreciate the technical prowess shown there. The moral conflicts lived by Will Dormer…

  I am very impressed by both Al Pacino and Robin Williams. Both of these gentlemen give great performances in this entertaining thriller! I didn't know Robin Williams had a performance like this in him. I'm surprised I hadn't seen this Nolan film sooner.
