   Is sleepers a good movie?

   • Sleepers is anything but easy viewing. The film focuses extensively on the sexual and physical abuse of the four boys. As the ringleader of the detention hall guards, Kevin Bacon is at his absolute creepiest. The young cast does quite well, particularly Joseph Perrino as the young Lorenzo "Shakes" Carcaterra.

   Why was Sleepers so controversial?

   • The movie was very controversial due to the subject matter. I believe that one reason that Sleepers (1996) didn't get the praise it deserved is the film deals with things that were already present in Mean Streets (1973) and Once Upon a Time in America (1984).

   It wasn't the most family friendly but damn, it was riveting. Put together a great story that brings you right in from the beginning and a great cast (Robert De Niro, Dustin Hoffman, Kevin Bacon, Brad Pitt as some of the big names) and it's a great recipe for entertainment.
