The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.

By a distance the crudest and most pointless film I've seen to have come out of modern Hollywood(I've avoided others that I reckon must be equally bad).I bet this went down well with people under 30 but from my over 60 point of view it I blushed for all the people caught in a cinema watching this thinking they were seeing something funny and warm.The weird sisters were trapped in a perpetual teenage world view and their parents deserved better.Is there anyone so chained to the childhood home that they would act this way?Every scene was written by someone with a tin ear for humour.If in doubt make it sexual or toilet .The phallus on the wall is somehow a suitable symbol for this crass film.The two actresses involved ,somehow highly rated,should go and wash their mouths out with soap and water,then use their talents for better ends.I've heard a lot about how great they are but in scene after scene their reputations were diminished.God awful.

I laughed a lot and would recommend for a blah evening when you just want to veg out and have a few laughs

Sisters tries really hard. Tina Fey and Amy Poehler certainly have chemistry and some of the best moments of the movie come from that chemistry. Still, the film falls flat on its face more than once.The movie is mostly cringe humor. It's filled with one character or another doing something embarrassing. While this can be done really well if used correctly, Sisters seems to hit everything with the cringe hammer until it cries.This isn't really expected, and neither is the abundant use of bodily and sexual humor. There are some great moments in the movie relating to these, as well.The real issue with the movie is it feels like the writers went at it with a list of "funny" situations and tried to fit them all into a loose theme.

This is a formula movie, and I'm sure you're seen it before. I'm sure you've seen the party scene that gets way out of control, the person not invited who tries to ruin it, adults acting like children, and other things, so I'm sure yo won't be surprised, but this movie was pretty funny thanks to the two stars. It could have been better though.Tina Fey (an irresponsible mother) and Amy Poehler learn that their childhood home is about to be sold and decide to hold a party to hold onto it. Of course, things get way out of control. The party scene was hilarious, but could have been toned down a little bit.I enjoyed the party scene, the part where they rescued the daughter from the sinkhole, Poehler's scenes with her "love interest," and Fey's scenes with her daughter.** 1/2 out of ****
