Sister Reviews
Arizona Republic
Barbara VanDenburgh
"Sister" avoids sentimental indulgence. There's no room for wallowing in this spare, almost ascetic exercise ...
Seattle Times
John Hartl
Klein and Seydoux give such naturalistic performances that they're never overwhelmed by the spectacle.
Detroit News
Tom Long
What a beautiful and desperate film.
Chicago Sun-Times
Jim Emerson
The movie takes a refreshingly low-key, observational approach to storytelling ...
San Francisco Chronicle
Walter V. Addiego
Seydoux perfectly captures the anger and self-defeat of ill-educated, hedonistic, man-chasing young women who live on the fringes.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Steven Rea
Haunting and sad. And absolutely worth seeing.
Los Angeles Times
Sheri Linden
The chemistry between the two leads is a razor's-edge dance: feral, childish, tender and always complex.
Punch Drunk Critics
Roxana Hadadi
Aside from the strong performances, there's beautiful, saddening cinematography, too.
HollywoodChicago.com
Brian Tallerico
Strong cinematography, excellent performances, and a deft touch with how adulthood can be forced upon what should be carefree adolescence make it emotionally memorable without ever feeling manipulative.
Time Out Chicago
A.A. Dowd
For fans of Ursula Meier's last movie, the strikingly offbeat domestic drama Home, this act of auteur-on-auteur emulation may feel like a comedown. Yet it's still stirring work.
MovieFreak.com
Sara Michelle Fetters
While Sister isnt without its issues, this drama remains something special, the films final moments an avalanche of genuine human understanding that had me happily reaching for the tissues while also letting out a silent euphoric cheer of appreciation.
Film Comment Magazine
Emma Myers
Scorn may give way to momentary solicitude, but Sister is by no means a tenderhearted morality tale.
Chicago Reader
J. R. Jones
[An] absorbing French drama.
The New Republic
Stanley Kauffmann
La Seydoux fulfills Louise, and Kacey Mottet Klein, as Simon, is one more to join the pantheon of film's excellent child actors.
New York Times
Manohla Dargis
A cool yet compassionate look at two people bound by love and shared struggles in a world of haves and have-nots.
Wall Street Journal
John Anderson
A work of precocious depth by Ursula Meier ("Home"), who's nervy enough to enlist the Alps as a metaphor, and inject a story of family dysfunction with just enough politics to make it a parable.
Boston Globe
Wesley Morris
Movies about wayward kids are a European specialty. The new film "Sister" deepens the specialty.
Entertainment Weekly
Lisa Schwarzbaum
The influence of Belgian masters Jean-Pierre and Luc Dardenne's documentary eye for youth on the margins is evident in Ursula Meier's calmly heartbreaking drama.
New York Post
Farran Smith Nehme
Meier's tight focus on her primary characters pays off: Seydoux brings a strong array of emotions to a highly unsympathetic part.
Christian Science Monitor
Peter Rainer
It's a terrific, bracingly sad movie.
