I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

Best movie ever!

if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.

The film Winter Sleepers took the audience on a twisty-curvy journey through the experiences of five people, whose lives intersected in an ironic and sometimes tragic way. The plot was somewhat Mementoesque fashion, although the use of multiple flash-backs and flash-forwards weren't employed. I was impressed to see that that this film came out in 1997, several years before Memento; I wonder if the idea for Memento was somewhat inspired by this film. The film did a good job of creating a setting that was enticing and believable. The scenery of small-town Bavaria in winter was very pastoral, and the mountain shots (presumably the Alps) were breathtaking. The lighting was soft and warm, creating the sensation of being snug despite the wintry beauty outside. The coziness and clutteredness of the character Rebecca's house also helped to create this illusion. **Plot Spoilers Ahead** I felt that the plot and/or character development could have been a bit tighter. For instance, Theo's character seems to spin in circles for a good portion of the movie, and when he finally finds his direction and decides to take action, the action he decides to take is shocking and tragic. In a twist of fate, he ends up driving Marco off a cliff for committing a crime he didn't commit. I wasn't too sad to see Marco go, given his nasty habit of cheating on his girlfriend; however, I found Theo's actions to be implausible given the previous context of his character, and his character's identity essentially was undermined. In addition to this minor flaw, there was a general failure to resolve the conflicts set forth in the film in any meaningful way. When the film ended, I was left unsatisfied and a little disappointed. I know that European movies don't always end in the same perfect-world way that most American movies do; however, I still felt that more resolution could have been achieved in this film.Overall, however, I did enjoy the film very much, and felt that the strong points outweighed the week points. I would give this film an 8 out of 10 for its ability to draw my attention with an interesting plot and likeable characters.

Nice audio/visuals and good performances make this a watchable character study that's highly derivative of the more complex stuff by Canadian director Atom Egoyan (particularly THE SWEET HEREAFTER, as noted by many reviewers here). It's all rather contrived and simplistic to be significant intellectually, but it's decent enough adult melodrama to warrant a look.

Tom Tykwer is a true visionary. So creative in all his films. Likes to play with odd elements (time and the ever so "what if?" factor)This film is the boy meets girl, boy kills little girl driving car, man gets trapped without transportation in said village.......won't get into it here, there are plenty of reviews everywhere, but if you want a truly surrealistic flic, don't read many reviews or you'll truly spoil the splendor of this flick.

I really can't understand the indifferent reactions this film generated from both critics and audiences. I must have lower standards than most, for I found it to be a hypnotic, beautiful piece of work.Although the director, Tom Tykwer, has gained international attention for the film he made after this, "Lola Rennt", I think this film is a better showcase for Tykwer's talents as a filmaker.Yes, the flashy and visuals, editing and score that made Lola such a fascinating experience are present in this film, but the pace of the film is slowed down significantly to concentrate on the various characters which are spread across the vast, ambitious, canvas of the film. While Lola was a minimalist experiment in technique, Winter Sleepers is a mural. It is this added human dimension that makes it such a satisfying experience.No, it is not perfect. The ambition of the director sometimes overtakes the script, and the ending is rather silly and melodramatic, but the performers do their best to keep it down to earth.This film is very reminiscent of Atom Egoyan's "The Sweet Hereafter", both in terms of plot (the aftermath of a traffic accident and it's effect on a small group of people) and the use of winter landscapes to mirror the "frozen" state of the characters in an emotional sense. Although I think that Egoyan's film is more a more successful film in using this metaphor, this film is nearly as compelling.I have never been a big admirer of contemporary German Cinema, but Tykwer's work is an exception. I look forward to his work in the future and highly recommend this film as an example for those who think that Lola was a one-time fluke.Great film.
