Description
A different kind of drama tells about a charming young man (Jacob Latimore) whose life turned upside down after the departure of his parents and took care of his only sister. The young man will carefully take care of his sister, but he will find no way but to engage in illegal activities related to the sale and use of drugs in order to take care of her. After a while, his sister is kidnapped by his drug-giving supplier. At that moment the young man will use his magic mind to save his abducted sister. And because he has the gift of lightness, the young man can turn things upside down.

For a film at least partially about magic (and, "science-magic"), it lacks a decided bit of that necessary misdirection, and the proceedings are often predictable. Sleight is, well, slight.
April 28, 2017
[Latimore] has a magnetic screen presence mixed with a down-to-Earth directness. And while he's got swagger for days, he's just as compelling when his character is quietly contemplating his next move.
April 29, 2017
A street magician with a magnetic personality baffles spectators in a reasonably entertaining naturalistic drama.
April 27, 2017
Dillard's not interested in the Zing! Pow! Bam! Sleight is quiet, almost naturalistic, even when Bo is stopping bullets with his bare hand.
May 03, 2017
Overly familiar drug-dealer-wants-to-get-out plot saddled with a scientifically insupportable gimmick as its solution.
May 18, 2017
Sleight's payoff and take home messages are good enough to mostly forgive its glaring flaws.
May 04, 2017
Sleight... is a minor film with major virtues: tenderness, imagination, and a strong grasp of character and setting.
April 28, 2017
Dillard's feature debut squanders its high concept ... and serves up a low-rent, Nickelodeon-lite version of that story, blowing his chance with corny acting, paint-by-numbers plotting, and a dippy score.
May 04, 2017
There's more going on here than meets the eye, but Sleight's sleeveless heart beats true and conjures its characters to wild life.
April 28, 2017
The film lives and dies by Latimore's performance, which is quiet and ever-shifting.
May 05, 2017
Director by J.D. Dillard brings this under-the-radar drama close to genre cliches but deftly avoids them with his strong characters, fine storytelling, and vivid atmosphere.
April 27, 2017
A tight tale well-told, with an appealing hero, a direct route to satisfaction, and the ever-present sense that the merest turn toward stylistic extravagance or adventure frippery would sink it.
