Dr. Sander's Sleep Cure

I did like the movie.

It was fun.

And I like the short story genre, even if some of the stories are better than the others - it didn't really matter to me, as long as each one was unique, previously unknown and held its own meaning.

Variety was pretty rich, and some stories were quite nice, some even could actually help lead you into sleep.

Unfortunately, constant interruptions by the narrator's cocky demeanor and voice somehow kept breaking the tranquility.

I wanted to dive into the stories indeed, as there were many opportunities for that, but I really wish that narrator character would be more tone down and mysterious, instead of somewhat condescending and, dare I say it, annoying.

I really felt like that guy in the movie - tossing and turning. It is called 'A Sleep Cure', couldn't you just let me drift away for a bit?!

I would give it 8, if not for that narrator character feeling mismatched as per my taste.

Other than that, a fine film.

Would wish to see more of similar.

Thanks a lot!

I just saw Dr. Sanders Sleep Cure today at the 25th Annual Nevermore Film Festival in Durham, NC.

From the outset, the film was compelling with beautifully shot scenes, original quirky artifacts, and brilliantly acted roles. The director, Martin Sander, appears in the film forty-eight times in distinct roles. I loved the stylistic uniqueness that Martin brings to the film.

It's a charmingly soothing film with hints of Stanley Kubrick, from my perspective, and is complemented with well-timed bits of humor and subtle horror.

I can't recommend this film enough, especially if you are longing for art that harkens back to the era of cinema escapism in all its lovely aura.

Dr. Sander's Sleep Cure is one of the most original and visually captivating films I've seen in a while. It plays like a dream-sometimes comforting, sometimes bizarre, and always unpredictable. Mart Sander's performance is absolutely remarkable; playing 48 different characters isn't just a gimmick, it's an artistic achievement that keeps the film dynamic and engaging from start to finish.

The style feels like a blend of surreal comedy, experimental horror, and psychological drama. It's not your typical narrative-driven film-it's more of a hypnotic experience that pulls you deeper with each scene. The visuals are dreamlike, the tone shifts constantly, and the line between reality and imagination blurs in the most intriguing way.

This film isn't for everyone, but if you enjoy abstract storytelling and artistic risks, you'll be captivated. It left me thinking long after it ended.

I have to say I'm currently feeling very positive about this film, after having seen this at the domestic premiere. I entered with mixed feelings, but the bizarre episodic story drew me in quite fast.

Having had my own share of nightmares and sleeplessness, the makers of the film capture the essence of this condition well. The feverish dreams that seem to last forever but in reality only take seconds, or then seem to last for a second but in fact go on for ever....

There's a lot of picturesque scenery and the color scheme is interesting, changing from nightmare to nightmare. Also, some very pretty ladies in the cast.

A man (one of the many roles of the director and writer Mart Sander himself) can't find sleep and then puts on a weird cassette tape that is supposed to make the listener drowsy.

First the dreams are slower, then they speed up. The man sees himself in his dreams - first there is one of him, then two, then a lot more!

To be honest, I actually felt sleepy when listening to the hypnotic, purring voice (once more, Sander himself). Especially. Since I watched the film very late at night. So I identified myself with the poor man, because every time another nightmare began, I jolted awake and the sleep was gone.
