Sleepwalk with Me movie stills
Reviews provided by RottenTomatoes
Michael Phillips, Chicago Tribune: The film acts as both a diary of a sidewinding comic stylist finding his style, almost by accident, and a reminder to all post-collegiate boyfriends and girlfriends that "OK" probably isn't good enough for either party. Read more
Richard Corliss, TIME Magazine: Sleepwalk is oddly soothing, like a cup of camomile tea before bedtime. Read more
Stephen Holden, New York Times: More than just a glorified stand-up act. Read more
Drew Grant, New York Observer: Sleepwalk holds together as a story that, like a particularly good episode of This American Life, is both laugh-out-loud funny and somewhat melancholic. Read more
John Anderson, Wall Street Journal: Is there reason to be concerned that so much popular culture is about young men not wanting to become adults? Probably. And yet "Sleepwalk With Me" makes the subject palatable, funny and maybe even touching. Read more
Nathan Rabin, AV Club: Sleepwalk With Me is as charming as it is winningly modest, but it's so incredibly slight a stiff wind would knock it into a different hemisphere. Read more
Kerry Lengel, Arizona Republic: "Sleepwalk With Me" is the perfect movie for fans of "The Daily Show" who actually stick around for the second-half interview. Read more
Wesley Morris, Boston Globe: "Sleepwalk With Me" traps Birbiglia inside his own head. He desperately needs a movie or cable series that wakes him up and sets his material loose on the outside world. Read more
J. R. Jones, Chicago Reader: This sharp romantic comedy began as a one-man show, and you can tell: the hero's voice-over narration wraps around the entire movie, and the scenes are mainly verbal. Read more
Tom Long, Detroit News: This is a movie for anyone who's ever been unsure, and surely that's everyone. Read more
Lisa Schwarzbaum, Entertainment Weekly: Feats of raconteur storytelling are always tricky to translate into something effective and fluid enough to be movieworthy. But Sleepwalk With Me sticks the landing. Read more
Duane Byrge, Hollywood Reporter: Crowd-pleasing comedy from stand-up Mike Birbiglia. Read more
Betsy Sharkey, Los Angeles Times: "Sleepwalk With Me's" transition from stage to screen primarily works because Birbiglia continues to carry the weight. Read more
Charlie McCollum, San Jose Mercury News: It is a likable, warm film that brings a welcome reassurance: Even if you fail spectacularly as a comedian or as a human being, it really can turn out OK in the end. Read more
Richard Brody, New Yorker: The crux of the story offers sharp practical wisdom in the modernist vein, regarding the comedian's confrontation with the danger and the challenge of self-revelation, but it's served up too smoothly and sweetly. Read more
Chase Whale, Film.com: This self-deprecating comedy would make both Larry David and Louis C.K. proud, Read more
Stephanie Zacharek, NPR: Matt's learning curve is probably supposed to be entertaining, or endearing, or something, but mostly it just sends the movie lurching into inertia. Read more
Elizabeth Weitzman, New York Daily News: Birbiglia's gift, really, is one of reassurance. It's nice to know that we can fail spectacularly and still be okay. Read more
Sara Stewart, New York Post: A thoughtful adaptation of Birbiglia's hit one-man, off-Broadway show. Read more
Steven Rea, Philadelphia Inquirer: A smart, neurotic slice-of-life comedy about a stand-up comic with confidence issues, commitment issues, and career issues. Read more
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times: I like this movie. More important, I like Mike Birbiglia in it. Whether he has a future in stand-up I cannot say, but he has a future as a monologist and actor. Read more
Amy Biancolli, San Francisco Chronicle: It all adds up to a fine, funny exercise in disheveled self-deprecation: a self-portrait of a guy who can't control a major portion of his life. Read more
Colin Covert, Minneapolis Star Tribune: Birbiglia's pleasingly nasal delivery and agreeable presence holds it together. Read more
Joe Williams, St. Louis Post-Dispatch: Notwithstanding its storytelling stumbles, "Sleepwalk With Me" points in a positive direction for this likable comedian's career. Read more
Christopher Orr, The Atlantic: I liked Sleepwalk With Me-just not nearly as much as I would've liked to have liked it. Read more
Joshua Rothkopf, Time Out: Sleepwalk with Me embraces its toughness and emerges with a sharp comment about evasion. Read more
Claudia Puig, USA Today: The semi-autobiographical tale is appealingly low-key and alternately funny and melancholy, informed by Birbiglia's casual delivery. Read more
Peter Debruge, Variety: An endearing indie feature about the day-to-day indecisions and nocturnal perambulations of a commitment-phobic New Yorker. Read more
Karina Longworth, Village Voice: [Rides] a weird tonal line, maybe aiming to split the difference between comedy and terror but coming off as afraid to really go for it on either. Read more
David Edelstein, New York Magazine/Vulture: From start to finish, his character, called Matt Pandamiglio, is all by his lonesome -- reaching out of the fog. He's a funny fog person. Read more
Ann Hornaday, Washington Post: Birbiglia proves to be as engaging a presence on the screen as he has been all these years onstage and over the radio waves. Read more
