\n\u201cYour Sister\u2019s Sister\u201d is a comedy that spends most of its time dealing with 3 characters talking about love, sex, etc. These characters are smart and funny enough to keep interest, but the stakes are so low that the film never surprises.<\/strong>
\n
\nJack (Mark Duplass) is middle-aged smart-ass with wind swept hair that is a bit too similar to Justin Bieber\u2019s do. It\u2019s been a year since his young brother has passed away and he is still lost from the death. His brother\u2019s ex-girlfriend, Iris (Emily Blunt), has become a very close friend to Jack and she is worried that his head may never find the way of anus. She sends off to her father\u2019s vacation home on a small island off the coast of Seattle. A place to take some time and reflect.<\/strong><\/p>\n

But when Jack arrives at the house he finds Iris\u2019 half-naked sister, Hannah (Rosemarie DeWitt) who is also looking for refuge after breaking up with her female lover of 7 years. Jack and Hannah share a bottle of tequila, one thing leads to the other thing and the two share a brief tumbling. It\u2019s fine though, they are both single, attractive and in need of connection. Then Iris arrives unannounced and quietly declares her love for Jack to Hannah. Jack obviously has feelings as well as he begs Hannah to keep the tryst a secret. Soap drama and what, oh my, will happen?
\n\"\"<\/a>
\nWhat saves \u201cYour Sister\u2019s Sister\u201d is the performances delivered by all three of the leads. The material is very textbook\/cookie cutter and the tension is so very low- Jack does not cheat on Iris (he doesn\u2019t think she\u2019s interested) while Hannah has no idea that Iris has any feelings for Jack either. Nobody really does much wrong so the conflict is very weak. But the 3 of them are so likable that I could watch them go grocery shopping and be entertained.<\/p>\n

Modern day Renaissance man Mark Duplass is everywhere and is the current king of these Mumblecore flicks. (I\u2019m sick of that title for the subgenre but it has a better ring than \u201cHipster Rom Com\u201d\u2026. Or does it?) Duplass plays a guy you can cheer for and he\u2019s a lucky guy to be juggling such lovely ladies. DeWitt stands on her own as Hannah and you get a sense of a woman looking for her next path. Emily Blunt gives another fantastic turn as the British actress never gives less than an amazing performance. Considering she\u2019s in every other film that comes out these days, she has plenty of opportunity to let me down but never does.

\nWithout a stellar cast, \u201cYour Sister\u2019s Sister\u201d would be a forgettable trip to nowhere. Writer\/director Lynn Shelton should thank her friends for saving her film.<\/p>\n
