Artistically the 1973 sci-fi farce, Sleeper, is one of Woody Allen’s best films. Except for the physical comedy, it’s hilarious. Nevertheless:
Woody wants us to know 1) he is justified in his (1973) atheism, 2) sex is sort of the summum bonum in life, and 3) his movies do not always end well; sometimes the endings are flat.
In sum, I can’t say I really enjoy Sleeper.
