Reception


On review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes, the film holds an approval rating of 30% based on 27 reviews, with an average rating of 4.47/10. The website's critics consensus reads: "Shallow, dull, and ineffectively updated for modern audiences, The Sisters takes Chekhov's classic source material and renders it dramatically inert."[5] On Metacritic, the film has a weighted average score of 40 out of 100, based on fourteen critics, indicating "generally favorable reviews".[6]

The Los Angeles Times called it a "pompous, overwrought and itchingly claustrophobic psychodrama", saying "nothing can save the actors from the painfully mannered dialogue and implausible relationships."[7] The New York Times said the film "ladles out almost two hours' worth of carping, backstabbing and egomania" which prompts the viewer to "quickly realize no one in this film is anyone you would want to spend two hours with" and "wonder why the heck they're spending so much time with one another."[2]
