This topic is about when you saw a film, but however due to boredom you fell alseep watching it. Likewise which film was so boring you wished had fallen asleep.
Please try not include films you seen before, even I tried the Star Wars movie marathon and fell asleep during The Empire Strikes Back.
Fell asleep, during Cats and Dogs and wished I caught some Z's during A River Runs Through It. (Robert Redford directs and I think its about fishing.)
I hope nobody says they fell asleep during Insomnia.

Fell asleep during The Langoliers. I nodded off & woke up again about 3 times and the film was still on - It seemed about 9 hours long! And I've tried to watch Malcolm X three times and have run out of steam every single time. I still haven't seen it to the end. Quite annoying, because I was enjoying it.
Wish I'd fallen asleep before going to see The Rock, to save me the price of the ticket! |

Only movie that ever made me sleep (or at least wish to sleep) was this Apollo X (I do not know the number). So long, so boring and I had such big expectations, because everybode said it is perfect film. |

I've never managed to watch the whole of Star Trek: The Motion Picture. My brain gets addled, and I start giggling and shouting "Space Monkeys!" whenever people in EVA suits come on. Shortly thereafter my brain gives out completely and I drift off to sleep. Really weird.
But anyway, yeah - never managed to sit through that one.
One film I really wanted to fall asleep in was Solaris. It didn't make any sense, nothing ever happened, there were too many shots staring out portholes into white nothingness, and about a fifteen-minute section depicting Russian traffic really showed how "artistic" it was meant to be. I couldn't let myself fall asleep in it because it was in a double-bill with Dark Star. All my concentration went into making sure I saw Dark Star on the big screen - well worth it!

Shouldnt that be "Sleep inducing films"?
The title you have would suggest a film that was induced by sleep. I can think of plenty of films that were most likely induced by drugs, but none for sleep

"Nutty Professor 2". I tried watching this film twice. For some reason it knocks me right out. Doesn't matter I supose since I wasn't finding it all that funny anyway. |
