9 / 10
"Insomnia" is a gripping, highly dramatic thriller that more than confirms the distinctive talent of young Brit helmer Christopher Nolan.

9 / 10
The anomalous proliferation of scenic beauty gives Mr. Nolan irony to play with, and he uses it spectacularly. The director and his gifted cinematographer, Wally Pfister, are clearly turned on by all this wasted beauty.
- A.O. Scott -
8 / 10
The climax is unbelievably clunky in construction, yet it’s so explosively edited that I forgot my disappointment until it had ended.
- David Edelstein -
7.8 / 10
Nolan's intention was clearly to cast the material in a more conventional Hollywood mold without turning it into namby-pamby nonsense, and he succeeds admirably.

1. Entertainment Weekly
"Insomnia" is a smart movie by any metric, though it also feels like you're watching Nolan come into his Nolan-ness in real time
