Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
If more historical movies were like Beloved Sisters, the term "costume drama" would be less of an insult.
– Walter V. Addiego,

rotten:
When an occasional blast of purple dialogue is triggered (such as ''Save me from my passion!''), it only makes you wish for the unintellectual bodice ripper that the movie should have been.

rotten:
Without at least the tawdry pleasure of a little bodice ripping, the film moves along sluggishly, even though it is well acted and handsomely shot.

rotten:
If nothing else, "Beloved Sisters" is one of the most visually striking biopics around. Too bad you have to wade through so much verbiage in order to enjoy it.

It's epic stuff, and at 170 minutes it's a commitment. Schiller seems to be blazing a trail for German uber-confidence, seeing his modern man as the grand product of all that's been right with history.
