Movie Review – The Sisters Brothers

When I saw this movie yesterday, I really disliked it. I thought I’d sleep on it and see where my mind was later. I still dislike it.

Yes, it had an amazing cast. How can a movie with an ensemble like this not prove to be outstanding? I’m going to blame this on the writing. The story was okay at best and the pacing sucked. This movie dragged so bad that I’ll be honest…I nodded off twice  in the middle of the day.

I was under the impression it was going to be a funny movie. Luckily, the amazing John C. Reilly did in fact have some funny moments. In my opinion, he is the only one that pulled that off. The rest of the cast didn’t make me laugh at all. Reilly is the sole reason I’m giving this movie a C and not a D.

I’m at a loss on anything else to say; this movie sparks nothing in my mind. It was that boring.

Grade: C-

About The Peetimes: This movie is slow moving with a lot of dialog. A lot of the dialog is hard to hear. It’s one of the movies where you need to pay very close attention the whole time.

There are no extra scenes during, or after, the end credits of The Sisters Brothers. (What we mean by Anything Extra.)

Christene Johnson (RunPee Sis)

RunPee.com owes RunPee Sis a huge debt of gratitude. She sees any movie needed with no complaints and has done so for ten years (even basing Thanksgiving and Christmas family festivities around the seeing films). In 2015 Sis ran the entire RunPee enterprise herself, while RunPee Dan, Jilly and Mom went traipsing off to Europe. Sis is the spider in the web holding the RunPee family together — besides being a funny, well rounded person, and a joyous pleasure to be around. Her favorite films start and end with horror (which thank goodness she’s happy to see, since most of us don’t have the stomach for it) — but also likes silly comedies, sad dramas, and musicals of all types. If you’ve used a Peetime for a scary film, you probably have RunPee Sis to thank for it.

Favorite movie genre: Horror, horror, and more horror. The more disturbing, the better. Period.
