Reviews:

Really good watch, would watch again, and can recommend.

This feels like a classic watch, like a movie that started a trope…but I can’t think of a single other movie that did what this movie does. Sure there are movies about comas, amnesia, lying, but they don’t do it in the same way, and I honestly believe it’s because this movie did it so well that no one wants to risk copying it and do worse.

This is also a great example of good situational comedy without bleeding over into abuse humor: at no point is she “suffering”, she’s not attacked, or wronged, but she’s in a difficult situation that doesn’t lend towards pleasantness in a ridiculous fashion, mostly because the family is insane, in the best of ways.

Every single actor in this really brings it too. There are plenty of notable names, but as much as Sandra Bullock elevates the quiet, reserved character of Lucy, there are so many other good actors and characters throughout the movie, it feels extremely balanced, despite all the different story angles happening.

The other thing happening is that this is sort of a reverse mystery. Instead of information that other characters know being hidden from the audience to be revealed later, the audience is almost the only one to know the truth until aspects are slowly revealed to the rest of the cast.

If you haven’t see this yet, put it on your list, I promise it still holds up: even if there are no smart phones yet, you’ll barely notice.

Insanely cheesy and overtly sentimental… yet, I kinda like ‘While You Were Sleeping’.

Sandra Bullock is probably the main reason for the latter, as she gives a near perfect performance for this sorta role. The rest of the cast are good too, from Bill Pullman to Peter Gallagher to Jason Bernard. The story is paced finely, it’s really just the strong cheese that brings the rating down for me. Still: 7/10.

It’s the sixth Jon Turteltaub film that I’ve seen: I’d class each one as good. Reliable director!

A beautiful, ageless film
I adore this movie, it’s easily one of my favourites. Another reviewer said that the best time to watch it is in the winter, and whilst I’m happy to watch it any time of the year, I would agree that it seems all the more magical when it’s freezing cold outside, and you’re snuggled under a blanket.

I’m glad no other actors were given any of the roles in this film, it wouldn’t have been the same. Sandra is adorable as Lucy. She has no sinister intent, she’s just swept up in the commotion and in the end, falls in love with the whole family. Her speech toward the end chokes me up so much, it’s completely heartfelt. Bill Pullman also shines, he falls for her gradually and their chemistry is so lovely to watch.

If you want a gentle, unbelievably romantic film to watch on a cold evening, this is the one for you.

A Charming Movie About Misunderstanding
Sandra Bullock is a working girl who wants to travel. She has no family, and is usually stuck doing holiday shifts in the Chicago transit system (as a toll booth clerk on the elevated railway). She has noted one man who uses the station all the time (Peter Gallagher), and rescues him when he is thrown onto the train tracks just before a train comes into the station. Gallagher is in a coma and (due to a well-intentioned nurse) Bullock is introduced to the family of Gallagher as his fiancé. She tries to tell them the truth, but when she learns his grandmother (Glynis Johns) has a heart problem she hesitates. Soon she is treated as a member of this nice family as a member (well, she did save Gallagher, and she is thought to be his fiancé). Only his brother (Bill Pullman) has real doubts, and keeps mentioning them (and keeps apologizing for them. Bullock and Pullman find that they are also growing more attracted to each other. The film shows how these problems are resolved. And it is all done in a most charming manner.

This is one of those films that would take only a few minutes to quickly resolve in the real world, where Bullock would have told the truth early on. But the audience is allowed to suspend it’s disbelief because the characters are uniformly likable. Although Jack (Pullman) is constantly questioning Bullock’s story, each time she gives a plausible explanation of what is going on, and Pullman likes her enough to accept these explanations. The only one who knows the truth is the family friend Sam (Jack Warden) and he too feels that the news has to be broken carefully (he loves the family and doesn’t want them hurt). Oddly enough his one effort at meddling almost screws up the situation in the film for Bullock, Pullman, and Gallagher. Pullman also faces the truth and explains to his father (Peter Boyle) that he doesn’t want to continue in the family business. Boyle’s reaction becomes important too.

The performances are flawless, and one finds oneself rooting for most of the cast (the sole exception is the actress playing “Ashley”, Peter Galagher’s actual girl friend). Her opposite number, “Joe Jr.” is too comic a figure to dislike (in fact, at one point he thinks Pullman is annoying Bullock and offers to take care of him – not the act of a rat at all). For a sweet, lovable love tale WHILE YOU WERE SLEEPING is hard to top. In the last decade only WHEN HARRY MET SALLY, WORKING GIRL, PRETTY WOMAN, NOTTING HILL, SLEEPLESS IN SEATTLE, and YOU’VE GOT MAIL are on par with it, but the family becomes so important to Bullock in the plot this has a special warmth in it that is quite is different from most of the others.
