Summary: while you were sleeping
Review: this movie fills the need for plain and simple entertainment, period. the cast was superb and the story line was simple but not easily predictable. overall, a dish you want to keep in the fridge and slice a small bit by small bit from time to time. i really like this movie because of its down-to-earth story of ordinary people during the holidays and a new twist to what we call "love trilogy." a sentimental but at the same time realistic plot which holds your attention from start to finish. for the romantic ones, this would be an eye wetter, including the macho guys, like me (ooops). if you have this movie, you must also have the following - GHOST, WHEN HARRY MET SALLY, STANLEY AND IRIS and MILK MONEY. bring the popcorn and let's watch it again.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A cute, original masterpiece!
Review: This irresistable comedy is the ultimate you can find in a movie. Sandra Bullock delivers a ground breaking performance as a woman who saves a man, and later finds out the family thinks she's engaged to him - and then falls for his cute brother! (Bill Pullman) The acting is second to none, the storyline can't be beat, and the plot is a charming change from the usual run of the mill "chick flicks". This movie is all you could ever want.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: One of the best films of all time.
Review: A deffinate must see movie, not just for fans of Sandra Bullock and Bill Pullman, but for anyone and everyone. Trust me. There are not only scenes of sweet blossoming romance but also hillarious comedy. The film could not have been acted better than with Bullock and Pullman in the leading roles, and even though the ending is predictable there are many devious twists to the plot that make you want to both laugh and cry.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: cool movie
Review: This is a cool movie!!! I love the actress Sandra Bullock and especially in this movie. This is romantic, funny, and entertaning. My brother Timmy likes it, too.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A chick flick that even tough guys can love.
Review: This is a great date movie. Even if the date is merely watching it at home with your spouse. Lonely transit clerk Lucy (Sandra Bullock) saves Peter Callaghan's life. While he languishes in a coma, Peter's family mistakes Lucy for his fiancee. It's true Lucy is attracted to Peter (Peter Callagher) from afar, but she can't bring herself to tell the Callaghan's the truth that she and Peter are not engaged. In fact, they are virtual strangers. The Callaghan's are the tightly knit family Lucy misses, and that makes her more reluctant to set the record straight. When they invite her over to celebrate Christmas with them, Lucy is hooked. She meets Peter's brother, Jack (Bill Pullman), and an attraction develops.

This may all sound as typical romantic comedy fluff, but "comedy" is the key word. Sandra Bullock's flair for light comedy is amply demonstrated in this film. She shines as a blue collar Audrey Hepburn. In addition, there is an outstanding supporting cast that keeps the laughs coming fast and frequent. Especially good is Jack Warden as Saul and his repartee with Glynis Johns, the impish grandmother. Michael Rispoli as Joe Fusco, Jr. is hilariously boorish. The film blends clever dialogue, romance, and warm fuzzy moments. To the male viewers out there (recoiling in horror about now), stay with it, guys. Enjoy the laughs and Sandra Bullock's sparkle. Multiple viewing only enhances the rewards. ;-)

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Top Bullock film!
Review: A real classic feel-good Hollywood romantic comedy, WHILE YOU WERE SLEEPING is one of Sandra Bullock's best films (and rightly so).

She plays Lucy, a lonely young woman who works the train tollbooths in the city. She rescues the man she has admired from afar from meeting a sticky end on the tracks, and becomes caught up in the lie that she is his fiancee.

The family of the young man (Peter Gallagher) is more than welcoming to the new "addition" to the family, exept for family friend Saul (Jack Warden) who picks up on Lucy's ruse and tells her to keep it up, as its best for the family.

Meanwhile, Lucy's falling for the man's brother Peter (Bill Pullman) and decides to come clean......

A little gem of a movie, which features Peter Boyle, Glynis Johns and Monica Keena in supporting roles.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Really good romantic comedy
Review: Sandra Bullock is GREAT in this, really appealing. There are some good lines, and although you *know* she's gonna end up with the brother, you still want to see how she's going to get out of her predicament. Yes, it's predictable - yes, it's kinda cutesy - but give it a break - that's what people expect! (The review titled 'Bleaaurgh' (or thereabouts) was obviously written by someone who's not a fan of romantic comedies, or romantic anything for that matter, so is biased. Unfair!)

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Most wonderful movie.
Review: Cry everytime I watch this. It makes you want to hug Sandra Bullock and just love her till death. *laughs* even writing a review about it...I feel my heart flutter.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: VERY good movie
Review: This is one of my all time favorite romantic comedies. Sandra Bullock does a great performance as Lucy, the girl next door smitten with a man she's never even spoken to. When she saves his life, she meets Peter's family, including his brother Jack, who's played by Bill Pullman (who, I might add, has never looked better) She finds herself drawn to him, which isn't a good thing, considering the family, including Jack, thinks she is engaged to Peter! If you like a movie with a lot of laughs and love, While You Were Sleeping is the movie for you.
