Softwing Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??

InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

Billie Morin This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

Beulah Bram A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.

jtindahouse The drama in 'The Sisterhood of Night' really would struggle to pass for decent story lines in an average episode of your favourite soap opera. It's a rather bizarre movie that sets itself up to be something very entertaining and just very slowly fizzles out to nothing more than a bunch of girls being girls and parents being parents.There's one story arc that gets a little heavier than the rest but even that is breezed over pretty forgettably. No element to any of it justified the making of a film.The acting is pretty average from all the girls. Interesting this was Olivia DeJonge's first film. She has come a long way from here to her very fine performance in M. Night Shyamalan's 'The Visit'. Whether it was his fine direction or just how much she's learnt in that time I'm not sure, but to see her flat and uninspiring performance here caught me quite by surprise. It was a strange film to come across Kal Penn in as well. At first I thought he must've been put in for some comic relief, either that or he was going to turn out to be more important to the story than first met the eye, but neither really turned out to be the case. Overall there's really not a lot to see here.

wesm-19797 Okay so I am actually a guy (18 yrs old) reviewing this movie. I honestly really enjoyed this movie way more than I expected. I thought it would be more for teen girls and that I could not relate to it. However, upon watching it, I realize nothing could be further from the truth.Everything that happens in this movie is so realistic, which really adds to this movie. All the things the girls in the sisterhood struggle with are real life problems, like a mom going through cancer, never been kissed before etc etc. In reality I actually can relate most to lavinia as I have never had a girlfriend or been kissed and I know what the pain is like and the struggle of feeling u will never find true love.So anyway, I found this movie to also be a lot darker than I expected too, as it did not sugar coat things as some movies do. The harsh reality that we all have flaws and make mistakes really comes out, but it's done in a brilliant way. I love how u never know what exactly the sisterhood is until like 4/5 through the movie. U begin to get it when emily has trouble at the radio station, but I realized another clue was when she almost posted "I'm not the one u should be talking too." Emily and her lying about the sisterhood shows how much it can snowball if u lie. First the sisterhood is accused of acts, followed by a school counselor being fired and the eventual death of lavinia. Now onto the dark side of this movie. I was very shocked at the beginning when lavinia was in the chair and started moaning I began to think, what the hell? But eventually as it's later revealed it was her getting a tattoo. Also one scene which made me a bit uncomfortable was after lavinia read her mother's book on sex. I don't know if I'm accurate but I can imagine what lavinia was doing. Anyways enough of that part. The scandals were also rather dark, especially peeing on the Bible and girls confessing things done to them by the sisterhood. Really shows how lies can snowball. However I feel the very darkest part of this movie was when the made lavinia confess and made her touch herself. My heart literally broke for her, and I almost cried. She thought she finally found someone who loved her and then realized he didn't and worse still they freaking drugged her. This shows the twisted messed up world we live in and this does happen. U then see poor lavinia leave the party crying and can't sleep. Then unfortunately she is broken beyond everything and drug overdoses and ultimately dies. This honestly for me made me feel as though the movie was not 100% happy ending as a lot of movies are, and honestly I felt mixed at the end. The fact that a main character dies by overdose, plus the awful seen of her crying, literally made me want to cry. I honestly never cry for movies, but this brought me pretty damn close. Overall to wrap up this review, this is one of the best movies I've ever seen. All the actors and actresses are amazing, georgie henley does a phenomenal job, and it's cool to see her play such a different character from lucy of narnia. Also, though there is a lot of sadness in this movie and dark content, I believe that honestly makes it a better movie. I feel it's so realistic to modern culture and that things in this movie happen significantly more often than most people think. It does not hide everything or be politically correct in the content, it shows the dark side of society and just how messed up some people are. The scenery of the movie is beautiful and the illustration of burning secrets by fire adds even more depth to this movie. Overall 9/10, spectacular movie, I recommend not just girls to watch it, but guys too. Just understand there are some uncomfortable scenes, but nothing too insane.

Joey Justiss This movie really hits one in the gut! I thought it was so simply and understatedly beautiful. There was no pretense in this film. I just can't tell how it snuck up upon me and brought out this rich story of unconditional and uncompromising love! Wow! I thought this would a be a good late night B movie thriller. To my surprise I was captivated within the first ten minutes and just couldn't walk away. If there were ever a movie to present the dangers of hurting others out of fear, envy, and pride...this one does this trick. Not only does the message ring true as timely, but this story will most assuredly become timeless. What is done in darkness will come to light. Truth will set one free and on and on. I found more than one sell-able moments that would teach young and old the valued meaning of solidarity unwavering! Check this one out if you have teens or young adults in the home. Sometimes these films get it right and this one is bang on! Get your tissue box ready for the feelings to resonate under director Caryn Waechter and this precious cast of actors! No doubt one of the best beautifully filmed stories of humanity and strength of the persevering spirit.

peggybennett-53075 I loved The Sisterhood of Night. It's so more than a teen girl movie. It's scary, it's sad. The characters are rich. The plot is surprising. Just when you think you have the movie figured out, screen writer Marilyn Fu takes a left turn. Director Caryn Waechter make this independent movie look like a big budget thriller. The night time scenes in the woods are beyond beautiful. The young actresses are terrific. My daughter has loved Georgie Henley since The Chronicles of Narnia.It's a great movie to watch with your teenager. You'll both fall in love with these girls. And you'll both cry. It's the kind of movie you'll want to watch more than once.
