Sisters

THE GIST: Sisters Kate and Maura are summoned home by their parents to clear out their old rooms since the house has been sold. They're heartbroken and decide to throw one last high-school-style party before they leave their childhood home for good.

Sisters isn't a highbrow comedy, but it's not meant to be; it's your basic light-hearted film meant to give the audience a much deserved mental break.

What it does have is two of the funniest ladies working with comedic material both on the small and big screen. Tina Fey and Amy Poehler have such energy working off one another that they make the screen sparkle.

Add to them Maya Rudolph, Ike Barinholtz, James Brolin, Dianne Wiest, John Cena, John Leguizamo, and Kate McKinnon and you know you're going to have a good time.

THE BOTTOM LINE: Not memorable but certainly entertaining. Good for a couple hours of laughter.

Grade: 6.5
