Watch Sister Cities For Free

Pretty Good

While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

Liked the ensemble cast that includes Troian Bellisario of Pretty Little Liars but the story is ultimately unbelievable. It just doesn't ring true that a mother who is dying of illness wouldn't want to see her kids and say goodbye. The euthanasia assisted suicide matter aside that weakness is just the let down of this movie. And the burden placed on the caregiver daughter is kind of terrible.I wouldn't say this is a bad movie it just feels like a waste of time.

The story is riveting and the acting flawless. I loved this movie. And I saw a screening on the same weekend as I saw 2 big box-office films. This one way outshone the others in every way. The story was told with flashbacks in a way that revealed more and more of the linear story as the film progressed. The ensemble acting made you feel you were there with these sisters. And the scenes between each sister and mother deepened our understanding of each character. The screenwriter is not only a wonderful scriptwriter, but also a novelist and we get to know these characters in a way that is usually possible only in novels. There is humor, sometimes dark, but always real that comes from the story, never thrown in merely to break the tension.

I'm always interested in seeing independent movies, and often find them much more absorbing than the much hyped blockbusters. Sister Cities proves to be one of the best independent films I have recently seen and one that I have enjoyed the most. This story of a family of dysfunctional sisters coming together after the death of their mother and in the process beginning to understand themselves and each other is beautifully crafted and extremely touching. And, although it is a film written by a woman primarily about women, it is universal in the exploration of grief and how our reactions to death are shaped by our choices in life.

Amazing movie! There were so many twists and turns. The movie had everything you would want in a good movie. Excellent writing,directing and the actors were superb. Life is complicated and having a close family is so important which is what this movie is all about. This movie is for everyone. I have seen this as a play twice and then on the screen on Lifetime. I see something new each time I see it. The characters have so much depth to them. It is interesting how different the sisters are but how they all come together at the end of the mother's life. Even when a family is dysfunctional, forgiveness is the only thing that matters in the end. My favorite character was Austin. I felt she was the strongest of all the sisters. I felt myself crying and laughing throughout the movie. I also enjoyed the flashbacks.
