Description

In The Sisters Brothers, Joaquin Phoenix and John C. Reilly blaze a trail of action, adventure and sly wit as Charlie and Eli Sisters, notorious sibling assassins who are hired to kill a gold prospector accused of stealing from their tyrannical boss. Based on Patrick deWitt’s award-winning novel of the same name, this western is a wildly chaotic ride from start to finish.

    I’m a huge fan of Joaquin Phoenix. His acting is always top shelf. I’m also a fan of John C Reilly’s more sensitive side acting. He crushes it in this film. I wish he would get more roles like this, because he really shines. That said, the movie is a slow burn with plenty of character development. It isn’t action packed, but I don’t think that was the goal. Each of the four main characters seem to be on the path of self discovering as the film evolves. The humor is subtle, but great.....I can see why it may be lost on some people.
  • Excellent Western

    Very disappointing. Nothing really happens for the first hour and then when the plot finally gets going, there still isn’t much to this slow paced film. Don’t know how the three leads got caught up in this dreary Western.
  • Bored in minutes...

    ...and it never picks up. Jake G usually makes such good choices. This movies is a dumpster fire.
  • Simple and dull

    Despite the film's American setting, none of the scenes were shot in the United States. Each scene looks like: Spain, France, Romania. Because of that you are not hooked. But worse: The scipt is simple, the movie boring. Like: There were clouds in the sky, so the rain was predictable.
  • Kinda weak

    The cast and acting are good, but this movie isn't sure what it is. The ending is strange. The movie isn't neccessarily bad, but its not good either. Its definitely not a comedy, and I don't know where people got the idea that it is. The scenery is nice, but does not look like the western U.S. I think the writing just stinks. There was potential for sure.
  • Great Flick!

    This movie is dramatic, funny, interesting, and tragic. The old west setting and colorful characters made it a joy to watch while the events that occur kept me invested. Don’t let other reviews steer you away unless you have no taste either. I’ll make it simple, if you liked the movie “O’ Brother Where Art Thou”, you’ll enjoy this movie as well.
  • Modern Western Comedy

    If you’re into that sort of a thing plus stand-out performances, this movie is probably for you.

    Westerns always have potential, because they represent the truest American history. Some acquit themselves better than others, but they all seem watchable. I’m sorry to say, I found this film unwatchable. Of course I made it to the end in fairness to this review. I felt like the actors were the shining positive in this film, especially Jake Gyllenhaal. The wide shots of an open range never disappoint, and the plot wasn’t that suspect. The reason I’m giving this movie 2 stars is because I’m tired of social narratives from today’s headlines being injected into a movie by Hollywierd. ... spoilers?? Maybe... This idea of a new society with no greed, with many people ready for a change. Sigh. This was the wild Wild West , people weren’t clamoring for socialism, they were affixed on survival. Just another movie that might have been great being dragged down by politics that shouldn’t have been there.
