If you're suffering from insomnia, give this ridiculous film a viewing. I dare you to make it through without falling asleep. If stupid, poorly acted, film school (or high school) project level filmaking turns you on, you will love this film. Nothing, including a couple of "big" names, will save this film from the criticism that all 120 mins of this disaster richly deserves.
Several reviews (likely astroturfed) are heeping praise on the directorial debut of William Atticus Parker. If this rubbish is the best Parker can do on his first outing, no need to see another act. Maybe Parker could benefit from a trip to film school, or just watch Citizen Kane. The reset button needs a hard hit before Parker's next project.
Some find it astonishing that Parker wrote and directed this mess when he was just 17 years old. NO! This sleep inducing tripe looks EXACTLY like a 17 year old created it. It's certain that anyone watching "Forty Winks" will get far more than 40 winks for their trouble.
