The Sisters Ratings & Reviews
Chicago Reader
J. R. Jones
The result is an insufferable academic cocktail party of declamatory speeches coaxed...
Film Threat
Rory L. Aronsky
Many films have already tread through the gloomy garden paths that "The Sisters" takes. But it confirms that watching Maria Bello act in many guises is one of the great pleasures of the movies.
DVD Clinic
Scott Weinberg
Just goes to show you that you can be rich, smart, beautiful, and accomplished ... and still be as miserable as us middle-class drones.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
Intelligent, observant entertainment designed for an adult audience.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
What we can guess, watching the film, is that the same players would make a good job of Three Sisters but are undermined by the faculty club, which works like a hotel lobby. There's no way to sustain dramatic momentum here.
Chicago Tribune
Michael Phillips
Instead of anti-melodrama laced with surprising moments of comedy, which Chekhov managed, The Sisters settles for bloodless melodrama.
Detroit Free Press
Terry Lawson
Anyone looking for the playwright's undeniable insight into the female psyche is unlikely to find any such specimen here.
Spirituality & Practice
Mary Ann Brussat
Overwrought psychodrama revolving around the predictable warps and obsessions of three adult siblings.
Boxoffice Magazine
Annlee Ellingson
It's a tedious experience of otherwise promising material and covetous cast.
Ebert & Roeper
Richard Roeper
I liked the performances a lot.
Newsday
John Anderson
[Anton Chekhov's The Three Sisters'] egacy of stifled dreams and inter-familial anxieties are as relevant as ever. Updating it, however, should involve more than adding incest, lesbianism and the uncontrolled venting of spleen.
New York Times
Neil Genzlinger
It's a bit of an oversimplification but still a rule no writer should forget: Insufferable characters make for an insufferable play or movie.
New York Post
Lou Lumenick
A pretentious, stagy and over-the-top update of Chekov's The Three Sisters.
New York Daily News
Jami Bernard
Richard Alfieri adapted his Chekhov-inspired stage play for this movie, but the outpouring of suppressed memories and emotions still seem to belong to the more personal realm of theater.
Los Angeles Times
Carina Chocano
A pompous, overwrought and itchingly claustrophobic psychodrama.
The Hollywood Reporter
John DeFore
Lifeless and irredeemably sour.
AV Club
Scott Tobias
At the very least, Chekhov's basic premise turns the burners up enough to keep the action lively, which may explain why so many recognizable names were drawn to such a marginal production.
Village Voice
Mark Holcomb
What's left is a series of fraught confrontations that are more shrill than insightful or wrenching.
Slant Magazine
Dan Callahan
Ham-fisted, maddeningly overwritten, and about as subtle as a jackhammer.
