I found the psychological thriller "Insomnia" compelling throughout and particularly enjoyed Al Pacino’s performance in the leading role. While Los Angeles police detective Will Dormer (Pacino) and his partner are being investigated by LAPD Internal Affairs, they travel to a remote Alaska town to help solve a murder. Working there with an enthusiastic local policewoman (Swank), Dormer comes to suspect Walter Finch (Williams), a small-time crime novelist. Then Dormer's LAPD partner is killed, and Dormer finds himself in a cat-and-mouse game with Finch. Meanwhile, Dormer has trouble sleeping, partly because the Alaskan nights are so short, but mostly because he must wrestle with his own inner demons.
