Movies that feel like Sleep Dealer (2008)
Set in a near-future, militarized world marked by closed borders, virtual labor and a global digital network that joins minds and experiences, three strangers risk their lives to connect with each other and break the barriers of technology.
If you loved Sleep Dealer, the closest films we have are The Wall (2012), Advantageous (2015) and I Am Legend (2007). All three share Sleep Dealer's contemplative and cerebral feel, which is what we rank on before quality.
Seen the big three already? The under-the-radar pick below is Tony Takitani (2004).
