    Indie and largely improvised, this simple and thought-provoking drama is held up by its cast, including Emily Blunt and Mark Duplass.

    There's clearly a pattern of people watching the first twenty minutes and turning this off. What a waste! I'm writing this review largely as a response to that: my girlfriend and I totally fell in love with Your Sister's Sister, and have been waiting for the DVD since seeing it at the cinema.

    Ok, so it's not a film for everyone. It's a bit of a slow burner with an admittedly awkward first scene. But it soon warms up into a humble classic. Don't expect a laugh-a-minute gutbuster; this is a classy, quiet pleasure and a very human drama.

    It's a film about real life and normal people (with a slightly weird plot twist towards the end). It's got bucketloads of charm, three strong characters, and a gorgeous soundtrack. We also like Dan in Real Life, The Dish, and Episodes, and this draws favourable comparisions to all three.

  • I loved it!

    Rated - 4.5 stars  
    By JBourne (41 reviews) from Dorset , 19 Jun 2013
    What a great film! It isn't a fast paced film but it is well acted. Ending is a little bit frustrating as it leaves you wanting to know more as you really get into the characters and their intertwined relationship. Definitely recommend.

  • great but frustrating cliffhanger

    This was a fabulous indie movie with great performances all round. The story was sweet and surprising, but also a tiny bit predictable in the rom com stakes. It also has a great ending that, although annoying, serves it well.

  • Wonderful, clever, subtle film

    Rated - 4.5 stars  
    By a customer , 07 Jun 2013
    Really wonderful! I don't know if it is because it was directed by a woman, but I thought she 'got' women and sisters perfectly, and the relationships seemed completely authentic. I felt a part of the 'sistership'! I thought the guy was great too ... My only quibble is that the 'issue' was resolved too quickly and easily in all directions, but it was all so lovely, this can be forgiven! Writing, direction and acting all outstanding! Hurray!

    I love this film is is a must watch. It is a slow started but when it gets into the story it captivates you until the end. The film is very believable and the script and characters are amazing
