The Sisterhood of Night Audience Reviews

Pacionsbo Absolutely Fantastic
Dirtylogy It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.
BelSports This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
Sarita Rafferty There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.
jtindahouse The drama in 'The Sisterhood of Night' really would struggle to pass for decent story lines in an average episode of your favourite soap opera. It's a rather bizarre movie that sets itself up to be something very entertaining and just very slowly fizzles out to nothing more than a bunch of girls being girls and parents being parents.There's one story arc that gets a little heavier than the rest but even that is breezed over pretty forgettably. No element to any of it justified the making of a film.The acting is pretty average from all the girls. Interesting this was Olivia DeJonge's first film. She has come a long way from here to her very fine performance in M. Night Shyamalan's 'The Visit'. Whether it was his fine direction or just how much she's learnt in that time I'm not sure, but to see her flat and uninspiring performance here caught me quite by surprise. It was a strange film to come across Kal Penn in as well. At first I thought he must've been put in for some comic relief, either that or he was going to turn out to be more important to the story than first met the eye, but neither really turned out to be the case. Overall there's really not a lot to see here.
Victorian I actually created an account just so I could write a review for this movie, seeing as no one with good taste seemed to have left a review for it. First of all, the only good thing about this movie was the cinematography, which was stunning, and I suppose the editing was pretty well done, too. But within the realm of the story, it made absolutely no sense. It was super artsy and over-dramatic. A movie like this should either have been done with much more sophisticated actors (AKA, not ones that look barely a day over 14), or have been a dark comedy. I really could not take the characters seriously, especially Mary. I mean, here's this girl with a super round baby face that played one of my childhood heroes in The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe. It was the most uncomfortable thing ever. BAD casting choice! She was way too awkward and not charming in that role. And watching her lose her virginity made me throw my hands up in disgust. Although, I was pretty pleased with the casting of Kara Hayward for Emily. She has the right amount of awkward and spunky to play the character. Although, her character was taken WAY too seriously (along with everything else in the movie), and at the end it was really not believable that she would have led a girl into such a horrific prank. And Levinia's suicide that night didn't make much sense to me, either. It just wasn't very believable. Aside from awkwardly casting children to play characters that were far too grown up for them, the girls in this movie weren't necessarily bad actors. The problem was just that the script for this movie is a massive piece of sh*t. Nothing's believable, it's one big cliché after another, it's either not enough or too much, it doesn't really have any sense of direction... It's just bad. By the end I had no idea what was even going on, when things were supposed to be taking place, and by the time we got to the big random dance number I had seriously lost all hope that this movie could possibly be taken seriously. I'd say the only thing I took away from this movie was that it had a good moral value behind it. But the way it was executed sorely ruined it and by the time the credits rolled up I exclaimed "well that was f***ing lame", and turned it off. I give this movie a 5/10 for it's gorgeous cinematography and the editor's ability to piece together the resemblance of a good story. The rest was garbage.
xhidden99 All references to the crucible aside this is not that. It has nothing to do with the theme of the crucible and the pressure of that closed off community. This is the story of a bunch of 15 year olds who destroy a town and everyone in it because they're cold blooded sociopaths. Maybe the feminist narrative is to call that empowered or a story of how teenagers girls relate to each other in a real way but it's not. These are girls who grow up to be serial killers. They are literally the manifestation of pure evil. I really can't understand why anyone who's seen this movie says they can relate to these girls unless they see themselves as sociopaths to too. And who knows maybe they do. I think they should have set the movie in 1975 Cambodia and had the girls join the Khmer Rouge to wage genocide on their schoolmates. Or maybe 1935 Germany where they grow up to be guards at Auschwitz. Either way I'm sure someone will claim it's a feminist epistle.
Joey Justiss This movie really hits one in the gut! I thought it was so simply and understatedly beautiful. There was no pretense in this film. I just can't tell how it snuck up upon me and brought out this rich story of unconditional and uncompromising love! Wow! I thought this would a be a good late night B movie thriller. To my surprise I was captivated within the first ten minutes and just couldn't walk away. If there were ever a movie to present the dangers of hurting others out of fear, envy, and pride...this one does this trick. Not only does the message ring true as timely, but this story will most assuredly become timeless. What is done in darkness will come to light. Truth will set one free and on and on. I found more than one sell-able moments that would teach young and old the valued meaning of solidarity unwavering! Check this one out if you have teens or young adults in the home. Sometimes these films get it right and this one is bang on! Get your tissue box ready for the feelings to resonate under director Caryn Waechter and this precious cast of actors! No doubt one of the best beautifully filmed stories of humanity and strength of the persevering spirit.
