Review of Sisters (2015) by A Yank A — 22 Jan 2016
A few chuckles here and there, provided mainly by wrestler, John Cena's portrayal of a stoic drug dealer, a ballerina music box and Bobby Moyniham's misunderstood, failed jokester's impression of one, Tony Montana .
Perhaps an attempt to recreate the diarrhea inducing, asshole bleaching hilarity of Paul Feig's 'Bridesmaids"(2011), Director Jason Moore fails to capture the same vibe, and instead presents viewers with something that resembles a long SNL skit, on a bad night, full of tired and old, cliche sex jokes, drug humour and dick references.
Plus, no Melissa Mcarthy. All in all, I felt that the movie would have been a bit more watchable if Tina Fey's and Amy Poehler's characters were appropriately reversed. The casting there just didn't feel right.
Like Arnold Schwarzenegger playing Rocky Balboa and Sylvester Stallone wielding a sword in Conan The Barbarian. *Shutter* A 'feel good' film that remind us that no matter what your age, you can still throw one hell of a rage party and destroy a perfectly good house in the process.
Whatever morallity the film is attempting to convey is overshadowed by cheesy dance scenes and 40 something year olds trying to get their rocks off.
