Foxx plays a dirty Vegas cop who has to get his son back from mobsters from which he stole a cocaine shipment. Monaghan plays another cop trying to determine what side he's really on.

Hijinx ensue.

Open Road Films has announced a February 24, 2017 release date for their action thriller Sleepless, starring Academy Award winner Jamie Foxx (The Amazing Spider-Man 2, Django Unchained) and Golden Globe-nominee Michelle Monaghan (Source Code, “True Detective”).

Directed by Baran Bo Odar, Sleepless stars Foxx as undercover Las Vegas police officer Vincent Downs, who is caught in a high stakes web of corrupt cops and the mob-controlled casino underground. When a heist goes wrong, a crew of homicidal gangsters kidnaps Downs’ teenage son. In one sleepless night he will have to rescue his son, evade an internal affairs investigation and bring the kidnappers to justice.
The film also stars Gabrielle Union (Top Five, Bad Boys II), rapper T.I. (Ant-Man), Dermot Mulroney (The Grey, Mozart in the Jungle), Scoot McNairy (Batman Vs Superman, Argo) and David Harbour (Suicide Squad, End Of Watch).

The screenplay was written by Andrea Berloff (World Trade Center, Straight Outta Compton) and serves as a remake of the French film Nuit Blanche, directed by Frédéric Jardin, and written by Jardin, Olivier Fox and Nicolas Saada.

Looks interesting.

I saw the original a few months ago, pretty good stuff.

Really hope they replicate the whole kitchen fight. That scene was exciting and hilarious at the same time.

Miami Vice 2. :P

Trailer reminds me a lot of Triple 9, hopefully this will be better but not sure.

 

[Lencho01]

It doesn't look too bad.

It's a much better idea to sleep in than go out and see this generic January filler film featuring an uncharismatic Jamie Foxx.

I like your unbiased plug.

Why thank you. It kinda sucks because since they didn't give me a screening to this or Monster Trucks,

(I did have Bye Bye Man but I preferred to attend the premiere for Netflix's Series of Unfortunate Events instead)

I had to see all three in one day and boy it was not a fun time.
