Here's my review for...

SLEEPERS

Ok so it's summer blockbuster time, well except for this weekend.  I couldn't sleep the other night so I turned on the TV and found a movie that I haven't watched for a long time but it made me remember what a good movie was.  The movie Sleepers with Robert DeNiro, Brad Pitt(when he was still cool) Jason Roberts and Keving Bacon.  The movie is a great story.  And it is told in the way of a story where boys from Hell's Kitchen in New York decide to be little thugs and they get caught for their actions.  But then when they are sent away, they are made to grow up right away.  The movie is told by one of the boys, Jason Roberts about how he grew up with his friends and then really grew up in a boys home with his friends.  I don't really like the whole prison guards raping boys theme, but it has to be in this movie to pull off the story.  Robert DeNiro plays the boys priest and in the end is there biggest supporter.  I have to say if you've never seen this movie then you are an idiot.  This is one of the best told stories that I have ever seen.  I love this movie
