Segredos e Verdades

Sleeper is the story of the marriage between Kara Killmer and Brett Donahue. They seem like an ideal couple, he's a florist she a real estate agent. But Donahue has been keeping one big secret from her.

If anyone saw the Sidney Poitier/River Phoenix movie Little Nikita than you have some idea what's going on here. It also was not one of the best films for either of those two stars. But at least that film had those two going for it.

Apparently there are a whole lot of Sleeper agents in the USA left over from the Cold War and ready for use if things heat up. Donahue knows who and where they are, the Russians want him and so do we.

As for Killmer she hasn't a clue. But she spots hubby with a beautiful woman Rayisa Kondracki and assumes there's an affair. She starts poking into her husband's business and not in her wildest dreams did she suspect this.

Sleeper is just as far fetched as Little Nikita and not as good.

Certainly not nearly as bad as one reviewer would have you think.

Plot seemed interesting at first, but completely lacked any originality, suspense, or genuine twist. Poor acting. A waste of time.

I actually enjoyed this. Not your usual daytime movie of a crazy person trying to destroy someone's life. This was different and I found it a good watch.

Badly written, worse acting and no direction. I thought this was a lifetime movie but it's actually worse. Don't believe the rating (6.6 at the time of writing) or the only other riview that gave it 10. It stinks. Paper thin plot and there is no twist or at least not an unexpected twist. No, I take that back, no twist. Ignore at all costs. A 2 for this stinker.
