Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
The whimsy Gondry whips up soon goes wispy as we wait in vain for all this sweet-natured silliness to reveal a meaning that isn't transparently obvious.

It's all very cosmopolitan (the dialogue is English, French and Spanish), very independent, a wee bit juvenile and very confusing, of course. But The Science of Sleep is also remarkably magical and desperately romantic beneath it all.

fresh:
In the end, after your time with it, you'll recall it with a smile, remembering its childish wonderment and mischievous sense of humor.

rotten:
The movie plays like an exhausted hallucination, disjointed and frustrating, much of it owing to the lack of chemistry Gondry allows between his stars.

In the moment, Gondry and Bernal almost manage to give quirky a good name.
