    • Quotes

      John Morris: I left my family out of hatred and that my father was the person I despised most in this world. I despised everything about him. I sincerely thought I had been freed of all that until tonight. Listening to you, what do I realize? That most of the things that I thought I'd been doing these past years, freely the opinions that I thought I had of my own volition were in fact dictated by my hatred towards that man. I'm 35 years old and my life is like an empty cylinder.

    Sisters Brothers
    Last names can be confusing - and/or funny that is. In this case and while this dead serious when it comes to the gun fights, it also has a lot of humor in it. And you can tell by the title. The chemistry between the two brothers is quite something and as with every sibling relationship, we just know there is friction and trouble.

    And it is a really good thing, they both have different goals and characters, the movie is richer for it. No pun intended and the story does move nicely. For some it might be tough to tell where this is going and even the mood might feel weird. But that is the charme of the movie. Not being able to pin point certain things. Having a mystery about it - which the end only proves. Whether you like it or not is a different tale overall ...
