Sure, both films are good, but the writing in Sisters buries the Force Awakens. My whole theater exploded on so many occasions, it made my sides hurt. If not for just a couple of lulls, this might be my comedy of the year. Those two ladies have amazing chemistry, and the supporting cast is incredible. Just go see it!… Expand

Not that Baby Mama wasn't funny, but this is that movie times twenty. Tina Fey and Amy Pohler are an excellent comedy team once again in this hilarious rendition of two sisters with very different personalities, and the hijinks they get into trying to have One Last Night in their childhood home before it is sold off.
I recommend this for a fun experience, which will leave you laughing; and a few heart warming moments which will leave you with the warm fuzzies.… Expand

I was not disappointed as they were an excellent comedy duo once again in this hilarious story of two sisters with contrasting personalities. It's a comedy, so you should expect really silly dumb even unreasonable stuff to laugh at. It's also a movie, so of course it's going to be dramatic. Go into it with an open mind and you'll see the plot even has a solid heartfelt message! I 100% recommend this movie to anyone who is looking to go out and relax and have a good time. It will leave you laughing, both guys and girls as my entire theatre was in an uproar the whole time!… Expand

If you give this film a chance, you might get yourself a good laugh. Sure is not as funny as some other films but it actually delivered good laughs and I didn't find it disappointing. That's basically all I have to say.

Tina Fey and Amy Poehler "the female duo most fun on the world" return in a sisters comedy, dissolving their attitudes to perfection in their different characters.

Recently, in the cinematographic world, much is had speculated andTina Fey and Amy Poehler "the female duo most fun on the world" return in a sisters comedy, dissolving their attitudes to perfection in their different characters.

Recently, in the cinematographic world, much is had speculated and decreed against the few opportunities in this big world of cinema for women in terms of roles, directors, producers and other jobs in the production of a film. The averages are alarming: 30,9% characters with lines of dialogue are women.19,7% are screenwriters, 22,7% producers and 6,8% are directors. The reality is disturbing inequality of the feminine gender in this topic. Slowly, This fades with celebrities as striking as Melissa McCarthy ('Spy' - 'Ghostbusters (2016) '), Amy Schumer that breaks the stereotypes in any film or the same Tina Fey and Amy Phoeler ('Sisters') this project written by a woman. The impact of this discrimination is imminent, programming ideas with women everywhere, something similar with what you want to achieve with the race of color after problems with the Academy Awards (#OscarSoWhite).
This work ('Sisters') demonstrates the domain and extreme capacity that may have a woman in the world of the cinema comedy or any other genre.

These two women come into their comfort zone to give us a story written by Paula Pell ('SNL'), centered at a crazy party carried out by last time in their childhood home. Despite the poor and immature script, Amy and Tina manage to offer the best of them through a childish material. "Sisters" possesses a very striking face for marketing, stimulating to give a chance, said marketing worked relatively outstanding, reflected at the box office against its strong imposing (18, December, 2015),

"Sisters" premiere without fear of his powerful enemy "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" providing a good alternative to (strange beings) who don't like lightsaber battles or the trio of Chipmunks doing mischief "Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Road Chip".

The characters which turns the story is Kate (Tina Fey) a girl disorganized, insurgent, unable to keep a job and totally promiscuous, while Maura (Amy Poehler) is a nurse, divorced, wanting to live a crazy night and with a personality that is radically different from that of her sister.

Parents of them, (Dianne Wiest and James Brolin) strangely, do not form essential part of the project, instead of this, they spend has be secondary characters due to the low integration within the film.

Without a doubt, the film takes shape as soon as start "Ellis Island", a development lasting mostly throughout the film, an interesting preamble for an interesting progress. With some reminiscences of the Judd Apatow's comedies (Trainwreck) but better quality, Fey throws her best powers during the two long hours, much more than in her entire career, while Amy in the same way that gives its most eccentric touch to this story full of humour.

The cast is completely fun and exciting, as a surprising John Cena already had seen in "Daddy's Home", Rachel Dratch, Bobby Moynihan, Kate McKinnon and others. Personally, I emphasize the interpretation of my friend John Leguizamo, seeing that a Latino - American has a chance at the American Film Company, and what better way that making his "Ellis Sandwich" with so famous, beautiful and talented Phoeler and Fey.

All the comedy is so fun and caricature, which even more beyond the scenes loaded with oral elements (phrases and others) the face film is a simple and inexpressive funny scene from a complication of pronunciation that it not only shakes the audience, but up to the own cast.

The introductory parts are well known, guests of the past, find people that environmental party, buy the necessary elements for the meeting, and a funny scene at the clothing store that burst of laughter even to the more serious (This scene, a key point of its classification R)

As seen in the film's behind of scenes, the fun and excitement that the actors and actresses felt tremendously reflection on the product that the public saw. The stars duo performed one of their best work to date on the big screen but overcoming never done on small screen.… Expand

Don't assume it's a high school party movie, but the big girls'. That's where everyone's are wrong and expresses their disappointment. For me it was a nice comedy, but not comparable with other great ones. It might won't work on teenagers, but there's no issue for adults with the open mind to enjoy it. A part themed movie for the grown-ups.

From the director of 'Pitch Perfect' another woman oriented comedy. Both, Tina Fey and Amy Poehler were not that funny, hence not a rocking combo, but did not fail either and worked okay on this. They are the sisters with the opposite character. When they visit their childhood home, they decide to throw one final party before handing it over to the new owners.

John Cena's cameo was excellent. In this chick movie he's the only one who gave manly appeal compared with the other men. The story was decent, but most of the movie was a regular party that goes wild. So expecting development of the characters or the story is silly. What I meant was, it is an entertainer, not a biopic or a documentary, so it delivers its purpose.

It was a fun movie, but nothing too impressive. If you liked Tina Fey and Amy Pohler in their tv series or other movies then you will enjoy this one too. I wasn't amazed or impressed too much, but it still was quite a fun movie
