This just belongs into the near flawless if not flawless filmography of Christopher Nolan. I hear a lot of people complain about how he's overrated while he raised the bar for movies in general. He's a master and this one fits right in.

Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, o filme mostra um policial que matou o parceiro sem querer, em uma local que estava nublado, mas alguém tinha visto isso e no final foi revelado era o parceiro da equipe Walter finch que no final morreu e matou também o will dormer, com isso, eu não recomendo esse filme.

Good movie! Though I feel it could have been just a bit shorter and Al Pacino was kind of old for the action scenes. I also think the sleep depravation symptoms were not very well reflected. The actual insomnia did not matter that much.

Love the look and tone of this movie

I absolutely love films like this—it reminds me of the best thrillers-dramas, packed with unexpected twists and profound emotional depth. The layered storytelling keeps you on edge while exploring complex human conflicts. On top of that, the cast is outstanding, featuring renowned actors who deliver exceptional performances, elevating the experience even further. This film is different from what you’d expect from Nolan, in the best way—unique, yet just as captivating.

Insomnia is a very confusing Christopher Nolan film but it's got incredible acting and a great storyline. And Christopher Nolan's visual flair and style will keep it out of being a bad experience

Decent, I like all the subtleties in the leads acting, lots of great little details. Many character choices make no sense to me and take me out of things a bit. This story goes about as predictably as you might think and is a probably bit of a letdown for Nolan freaks. Robin was good in this.

Pretty incredible film. Great script, great performances, incredible cinematography. Truly a remarkable achievement from Christopher Nolan.

Atmospheric. Superbly directed. Christopher Nolan's remake of the 1997 Norwegian thriller with the same title. Robin Williams gives one of his career best performances. Al Pacino is fantastic as he always is. The story will keep you in a constant state of suspense. Insomnia is a very good motion picture. I recommend. 88/100

One of Chris Nolan’s best movies, a must see.

Nolan's most underated gem.

One of Nolan's and Al Pacino's best films. A really good crime thriller.

"Hard to keep focus". "Don't lose your way". Un policía mata accidentalmente a su compañero en la persecución de un criminal, y en un intento de ocultar la verdad todo se complica. Intrigante. Psicológica. Inmersa. Empieza narrando con una vista aérea y grandes paisajes. Mantiene una intensa fotografía, con buenos espacios junto un detallado diseño de sonido. Aisla al personaje enfocando los diferentes objetos y detalles de la realidad, intensificandolos, destacando la culpa que siente. Cuando el personaje de al pacino se pone a hablar con un sospechoso, por un momento hay una tensión donde ya no estan hablando solo de la película, si no de sus carreras en el cine. El desarrollo de una mentira y sus consecuencias, que se vuelve mas grande entre mas la encubren, y como persigue a la persona. El desarrollo de un asesinato. Una de las peliculas mas debiles del director, pero igualmente digna de su talento, manteniendo el constante interés sobre el conflicto, y llevándote por un camino de engaños donde hay que luchar por la verdad. Estoy satisfecho. "Why can you tell anybody you shot him, i mean, it was an accident right?" The truth is beyond Técnica: 8.0 Expresión: 7.2 Efecto: 6.5 Experiencia: 6.9 Calificación: 7.1/10

Didn't follow through on the primary moral question of the movie, felt like a cop-out ending

A relatively normal Christopher Nolan movie? Well I never! 'Insomnia' might not be as deeply entwined as what the director usually produces, yet in entertainment terms it is still right up there. I really enjoyed this one, thanks in large part to the performances of Al Pacino and Robin Williams - great to see those two icons onscreen together! You also have some nice visuals, Alaska looks real neat!

In 2002 visionary director Christopher Nolan brought his 'Insomnia' remake to cinemas. SYNOPSIS: 'Two Los Angeles homicide detectives are dispatched to a northern town where the sun doesn't set to investigate the methodical murder of a local teen.' Along with 'One Hour Photo' this film is up there with Robin Williams' best works. It's a shame we didn't see more performances like this during his life. 'Insomnia' is an excellent crime thriller which is incredibly smart and riveting, and absolutely drags you into the story whether you like it or not. Al Pacino gives one of the best performances, with his role of a man struggling with sleeplessness being so infectious it weighs down the entire atmosphere of the film with a kind of relentless fatigue. What's madness? What's insomnia? These questions are all asked here. 'Insomnia' is a pretty flawless movie, and continued Nolan's career into becoming a Hollywood A lister. It's a dark and haunting thriller that gets right under your skin and asks a number of moral questions of the characters and ourselves. An exceptional movie which needs more eyes on it. 8/10

Very good. Enjoyable. I miss Robin Williams a lot.

Good story just a little tarnished by Al Pacino's over-acting. I surely need to watch this film's Norwegian original.

We all know that it's our real or perceived weaknesses, mistakes and transgressions that keep us awake at night; left to themselves they can run riot. Unable to rest, we lose perspective, our memory plays tricks on us and guilt - justified or not - can become overwhelming. Soon we're caught in a circular trap, from which we can only be freed by sleep or the morning. It's precisely this insomnia that haunt's Nolan's third film; Dormer (Pacino) is haunted throughout by an assortment of vulnerabilities. Some of these are a simple fact of the passage of time and humanity - the threat of a turned ankle after a jump, slipping under the logs giving chase, an inability to sleep in bright light. Others are real guilt, an increasing doubt of his own motives, or the temptations of being away from home and whatever his more 'normal' family life might be. This is all given force by the parallelisms between Dormer and Robin Williams's character, and the Internal Affairs investigation with the central murder. These are all strengths of a script that, unusually for a Nolan film, isn't written by the director. I haven't seen the film it's a remake of, but certainly it's a film that unlike many of Nolan's other films (which he at least co-writes), its main female characters are complex, interesting creations with genuine agency. Photographed by long-term collaborator Wally Pfister, the film is soaked in cold, almost metallic shades (amongst others) of blue, lending a sense of the eerie to a film which, driven by a Pacino performance that for the most part avoids his latter-day tendency to self-parody, brilliantly evokes the way an inability to sleep feels all the day round. Unlike many Nolan films, the story is entirely linear; but it retains his obsessions with how our past informs our present, and the film plays with that as the flashes of visons that haunt that Dormer suggests a suppression of his past that threatens to overwhelm in - and by the end, does. This is often seen as a minor Nolan film, on the way to the more successful and lauded films that lay in his future. But it deserves attention for all these reasons, not to mention the much missed Robin Williams's haunting and controlled performance. If Inception would take the cinema of dreams to somewhere new, this asks uncomfortable questions about what makes us unable to sleep ... and therefore to also dream. Showcasing as it does a deft thriller plot, his customary technical excellence and female characters who are better drawn than his usual, this is a corner of the Nolan filmography ripe for a revisiting.

This was such an awesome movie with great acting, cast and storyline. It's definitely worth the watch.
