Sisters is the kind of comedy that banks heavily on the chemistry of its leads-thankfully, Tina Fey and Amy Poehler deliver. Their dynamic is the beating heart of the film, with Fey's wild antics bouncing off Poehler's more reserved, responsible persona in ways that are genuinely entertaining. The two are clearly having a blast, and that infectious energy does translate to some laugh-out-loud moments.
However, for all its charm, Sisters stumbles in several areas. The humor often veers into crude territory, relying on raunchy jokes and over-the-top scenarios that sometimes feel more juvenile than clever. While this kind of humor works for some, it may leave others rolling their eyes rather than laughing. Additionally, the movie feels unnecessarily long, stretching what could've been a tight, breezy comedy into a nearly two-hour marathon. There are stretches where the pacing drags, and you start to wonder if every scene needed to make the final cut.
The plot itself is thin, mostly serving as a backdrop for the duo's antics rather than providing any real substance or development. The film's reliance on party chaos as the central theme becomes repetitive, and after a while, the wild hijinks lose their luster. By the time the credits roll, you might find yourself wishing they had wrapped things up about twenty minutes earlier.
In the end, Sisters offers some fun moments, especially if you're a fan of Fey and Poehler, but it's weighed down by crude humor and an overlong runtime that makes it feel more exhausting than enjoyable.
