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

L. Cloutier (FL)
Loved this movie for a long time now. Watched it many times. The actors are so cute together and it brings the whole film in nicely for the story line. I love the chemistry between Bullock and Pullman. They are just great together - very believable! Funny - touching - A feel good movie!
Suprised while I was awake August 31, 2009
Marcia Pask (Calgary,AB,Canada)
When I feel overloaded I slip this delightful movie on . I'd recommend it to any women wanting to have a smile on their face at the end of a movie. I love Sandra Bullock and she portrays an innocence and at the same time has a maturity that in some ways is rare.
Good product, prompt shipping August 31, 2009

 A farcical Romantic Comedy August 9, 2009
J. D. Best, author (Arizona)
This is a perfect film for these two actors and they play off each other very well. Made only one year after Speed (Widescreen Edition), Sandra Bullock was still an emerging actor, and certainly not yet a star. The story is predictable, but aren't all romantic comedies.
Some Amazon reviewers have mentioned that they don't like the character's dishonesty, but every farce has deception as the core plotline. Just ask Shakespeare.
