Editor’s note: Here’s a quick take on Sleeping Dogs (2024): Firmly a Mystery, Thriller, Crime, Drama piece, but with a personal touch. Under Adam Cooper’s direction, the film keeps a steady rhythm and a clear sense of place. Performances (especially Russell Crowe, Karen Gillan, Marton Csokas) give the story human stakes. Clocking in at 1h 52m, the pacing is controlled, with room to breathe. A respectable mid-tier entry with a couple of memorable beats. “Some lies never die.” sums up the film’s focus better than most trailers do. If the premise speaks to you, this one’s easy to recommend.
