If you don't mind a heavy dose of schmaltz and sentiment, this romantic comedy has a gentle way of seducing you with its charms. While You Were Sleeping was the first starring role for Sandra Bullock after her blockbuster success in Speed. In a role that nicely emphasizes her easygoing appeal, Bullock is the reason the movie works at all. She plays Lucy Eleanor Moderatz, a Chicago Transit tollbooth clerk who's hopelessly smitten with a daily commuter, Peter Callaghan (Peter Gallagher). She saves the object of her affection from certain death after he's mugged and falls onto the train tracks. While Peter is in a coma, she lets his family believe that she is his fiancée, and surprisingly finds herself drawn to his brother (Bill Pullman), for whom the attraction is definitely mutual. How Lucy gets out of this amorous predicament is what makes this pleasant movie less predictable than its familiar ingredients would initially indicate. It's feel-good fluff, with characters and performances that keep you smiling through the drippy plot mechanics. --Jeff Shannon

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - We quote lines from this movie on a regular basis!!
Our family quotes lines from this movie on a regular basis!! It is one of those very funny films that has just the right amount of humor mixed with romance. A good, decent film that the whole family can enjoy.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Clever Romantic Comedy
This movie has all the pieces that make a great romantic comedy. The main character (Sandra Bullock) is someone you can relate to and makes you laugh. The family scenes are hilarious as well. I really enjoy this movie.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - One Of My Favorites
I knew this film was great when my husband sat through the entire film with me and genuinely enjoyed it.

Lucy is a lonely young woman living in the big city with her pet cat. For a living, she sits in a booth day after day and collects tolls. One day, she sees a tall, dark handsome man (Peter) who seems to resemble her now dead father. She falls in love with him but he's oblivious to her.

Because Lucy lives alone, her boss gets her to work Christmas Day. Amazingly, the ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - "He's Got More Room In His Jockey Shorts"
Lucy (Sandra Bullock) is a lonely tollbooth clerk hopelessly in love with Peter (Peter Gallagher), a handsome, frequent customer whom she has never spoken to. Is it really love or is this just a passing infatuation? When he is mugged and knocked unconscious onto the railway tracks while waiting for a train she saves his life and accompanies him to the hospital. As he lies in a comatose state she meets his family and is mistakenly thought to be his fiancé. All seems to be going smoothly until she meets ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Exciting Times on the El
Well, Sandra Bullock! How can you miss? (Well, there was Miss Congeniality II). But seriously folks, this is a charming little number for XMAS. Well written, clever and witty. A bit obvious on the plot - but what the hey, it's Christmas! Buy it and enjoy it. I think you will.
