Intelligent, observant entertainment designed for an adult audience.Read the full review
Chicago Sun-Times | Roger EbertAdd Critic to Favorites
Projects like this bring out the best in actors, who take salary cuts to work in Chekhov (even at one remove). What we can guess, watching the film, is that the same players would make a good job of "Three Sisters" but are undermined by the faculty club, which works like a hotel lobby. There's no way to sustain dramatic momentum here.Read the full review
The Onion (A.V. Club) | Scott TobiasAdd Critic to Favorites
The Sisters is still somewhat compelling thanks to Bello, whose unguarded, provocative work continually resuscitates this corpse of a melodrama whenever it lays fallow.Read the full review
