Bob Goldthwait? Interesting...

Once you get past the "disgusting thing", this movie makes you think about how honest we are with those we love. How much information is too much? Is withholding something the same as lying? Do we really need to share everything with someone in order to be close with them? Does someone need to know everything about you to truly love you?

I thought it was well written and acted. I don't recall seeing Melinda Page Hamilton before this, but I thought she was great. Her parents also did a good job with their roles.

I'd watch it again.

Okay straight off the bat I'm a Bobcat fan, I love his work and thoroughly enjoyed the likes of God Bless America & Worlds Greatest Dad. I like his dark comedic writing/direction and touching upon issues that make people debate.

Sleeping Dogs is no exception though on a considerably lower budget than his other movies. A black comedy about a woman wrestling with the decision of whether to tell her partner her deepest darkest secret.

The movie will make you laugh, cringe & make yourself answer some questions regarding some really rather interesting scenarios.

What would you do if you were her? What would you do if you were him? Is lying to those you love EVER okay?

Be aware this is very crass in places and aims (And succeeds) to shock but never feels like its doing it to grosse out but merely to express the gravity of the events.

I enjoyed Sleeping Dogs despite its flaws and mixed messages, though its one of those movies I fully understand when folks hate it.

If you have a strong stomach, like a movie that gets a group talking and the Bobcat style of writing then its definitely one to give a go of. But it's certainly an acquired taste!

This was my first Sundance Film Festival movie. It was surprisingly funny...the acting was great and it was refreshing to see an original story...and this one has definite shock factor. Bob Goldthwaite definitely has a twisted mind and braves bringing it to the screen. If you get the opportunity to view this movie...go for it. However it most certainly is not for young people. The conservative will need to be willing to open their minds to a sense of humor even though acceptance will be an impossible feat for pretty much anyone. The irony of the movie is how real the fear of exposing your deepest, darkest secrets to anyone, including the person you are closet to and love most in the entire world. I still say....some things are meant to stay secret!
