Perry Kate Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

Mjeteconer Just perfect...

Humbersi The first must-see film of the year.

ActuallyGlimmer The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.

trashgang If it wasn't based on true events this could be a pure rip-off of Heavenly Creatures (1994) another flick based on true events.Here we have two sisters fed up with their mother being drunk whole the time and bringing in the wrong guys only to have sex before the eyes of their daughters due being drunk, always having abusive relationships . Slowly the sisters and their friends are making a simple plan to kill her. Doing so they almost got away with it wasn't it for the fact that one of the sisters starts to tell everybody she killed her mother.Like in Heavenly Creatures we also have dream sequences so comparing both flicks is easy. But Perfect Sisters shows that it clearly was a TV flick where as Heavenly Creatures was more brutal and performances were better.It isn't all that bad and I watched it with my teen daughter (15 just as the sisters aged 14 and 15) who never turned her face away by which I mean, there's no horror in it or even any creepy moments. Even when they are killing the mother it's all done without terror. Due being based on a true story it's worth picking up just to see how people can influence each other when they are weak. Not a perfect flick but indeed perfect sisters...Gore 0/5 Nudity 0/5 Effects 0/5 Story 3/5 Comedy 0/5

hemichic10 Excellent acting. The Mother played one of the best drunks/druggies that I've seen. I thought the acting by everyone was impressive for Lifetime. Sad, true story. I can not ever imagine doing anything harmful to my Mother even if she was a drunk and had no idea how to hold a family together and if she couldn't hold down a job. Bringing losers around would be a big problem, but still. We watch hundreds of movies in a few months times. I read a great deal of reviews and also contribute to them. I know a lot of people read the reviews and only purchase rent or buy movies based on the ratings. I am very surprised that this Lifetime movie was not rated much higher. Probably one of the better Lifetime shows

mxking2020 It seems the bad reviews are coming from those that are appalled with the concept, so their views may be slightly skewed. They talk about bad acting by the sisters, which would be true if they weren't portraying teenagers, so many times I was reminded of girls I knew in high school. The lack of real emotion, the "zig zagging back and forth" of their emotional states, etc. is all pretty common for teenagers, especially girls... Considering what they were going through, it wouldn't have seemed right if their wasn't some back and forth in terms of intent and how they felt about the whole thing. It was their mom, so of course they would have had second thoughts and maybe searching for some reason or sign to restore a little faith in her. The character of the a-hole boyfriend was a bit over the top, and should have been toned down and have some build up, instead of having him immediately attack Beth. I mean within seconds he's all over her, it is a bit too much. It felt like the writer used him to make the audience feel empathy for the girls, not small "Well maybe I can see their side" empathy, but a "Whoa! They don't have any choice but to kill her now!!!" type of empathy.Perhaps it could have been better written and there are some parts that are annoying, but those are likely going to be different for most people, as it is with every movie- personal preference. All in all the movie was very watchable for me, though it felt like they didn't want us feeling negatively about the girls at all, so any situation that could create a little empathy is amped up to create a lot of it. After watching it I thought to myself that if they were my friends I wouldn't hold it against them. I then saw a statement by the author of the book saying that they left out how cold and calculating they were. Then I read a bit about the real story and feel much less sympathy for them now. Though I wish they were more true to the real story, I still enjoyed it.

Summer English Hodge The parent guide fails to mention the multiple rape/sex scenes or the extremely revealing clothing the older sister wears. Seriosuly... I was watching the movie with my younger siblings and just had them turn away when the older girl wore a bra and see through tank top (she did this a lot). I quickly turned the movie off when the girls walk into the living room and see their moms boyfriend raping her on the floor while she's unconscious (at least that's what it looked like). Absolutely horrible. The moms boyfriend also attempts to rape the younger sister. Early one morning he pushes her against a wall and he physically restrains her, trying to kiss her and force himself on her. Another time when she's in the kitchen he comes up behind her and tries to kiss her. Her mother and sister stand by doing nothing.The parent guide also mentions the girls using pot multiple times. This is not true at all. They are smoking cigarettes. You can tell it's just a cigarette.I feel like this is some kind of comedy, except it's not funny. The older girl wants to be a pop star so she dresses like a slut (she calls herself one), exposing her bra just about always. The other girl looks like a vampire. She says she looks like she should be in Twilight. Then she bites her sister. This movie is just awful and not worth watching.
