About this movie

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.

Ratings and reviews

Anything with either Juaquin or Jon C. most likely I won't be able to pass up primarily cause their previous work... Mabey some people would not have thought that on-screen this duo would work but there was more than a few scenes where u can tell that they kept rolling and just went with it and came up with gold. Well in the end you are not left wanting more I thought that that the balance was just right!!! Big props to the hireups that had them in mind when they wrote this script!!!

Seems like most people that reviewed this were expecting an action western. This is not that movie. This is a movie with great dialogue and plot. Yes it's "slow", but it pulls you in. Great cast and script!!!

Good to see a film that is not straight forward story. I am glade the filmmakers took their time to let the characters and stories develop. Not a mindless action fast past seen it wondering what happened kind of a film.
