Anyone who thinks this movie was a "sleeper" should look up what that term means in some film glossary somewhere.
It all depends on the context and perspective of the person stating this; since it basically means that the movie achieved unexpected recognition or success, it'd rely on what was expected of it and by whom. If the studios expected to get $30m and earned $50m, then it'd be a sleeper to them. So, let's ask Dreamworks if it's a sleeper to them.
