Fueled by
an absurd chain of events involving an undercover cop, some stolen drugs and the internal affairs officer on his trail, «Sleepless» tries so hard to imitate peak Michael Mann that bo Odar even resorts to aping the director's trademark visual style.
This unpredictability makes the whole daft
chain of events compelling to watch, as does the extremely crude,
absurd dialogue and the frequent bursts
of violence — almost every character is at some point punched, shot, scratched, covered in blood, shat or pissed on.
