It features a pleasing mix of good-guy gumshoeing, smart-alecky dialogue and courtroom surprises. Full Review

Variety
Colorful characters, richly evoked settings, epic story of friendship, crime and punishment, and a strong dose of good old-fashioned star power. Full Review

The Onion (A.V. Club)
Muddy, confused, and worst of all boring, Sleepers grinds to the preordained halt shared by any over-budgeted epic that lacks the simple necessity of good story. Full Review
