All that we are seeing on the screen is happening with real people, real action sequences in the background, forcing the eye to watch as if we were there.

While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.

Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.

For what it was, I found Sister Sister to be a positively ideal show. It's main strength is in having an all-around great cast, with Tia and Tamera Mowry as the teenage twins. The fact that those two were great actresses is really what made the show work, that such young people could come off so realistic and with so much charm and cause you to care about their lives. Tim Reid and Jackee Harry were excellent and hilarious as Ray and Lisa, the parents, and Marques Huston was stunningly memorable as next-door neighbor Roger Evans. Rarely does a show of its type have so much laugh-out-loud funny material, unlike similar shows such as Full House, which doesn't deserve the number of comparisons it's received to this show. I admit the show is less than perfect, particularly because of the downgrade in quality in the last two seasons as the show started to focus on plots involving the girls' boyfriends and the parents in new relationships, but there are definitely good episodes to be found in every season. Only two seasons have been released on TV, and the show is not in regular syndication, but all of the episodes are on YouTube, so I'd highly recommend checking them out. Some of my favorite episodes include Guardian Angel, Daddy's Girl, Father's Day, The Tutor, and many more.**** out of ****

I love this show!!!!!! It is so awesome!!! I love Tia and Tamera to!I am more like Tia because...I am more like Tia! I think because I am good at school work and not much of a partier! I love to go to school! I pass all of my every tests, like Tia! I am not like Tamera because...Tamera is a party animal. I am not. Tamera doesn't study for tests, I do. Tamera asks Tia to switch and take a big test for her, I don't, for two reasons; 1: I don't have a twin and 2: I already studied for it. I am like the both of them because...I have very many friends so do they. I am easy to get along with so are they. They are very sweet and sometimes misbehave so do I.

I love this show! It is funny, and Tia and Tamera are great! I liked Roger best, 'cause he is incredibly funny as he worships the twins. The only thing I didn't like was the way they said things in unison, except when they said, "Go Home, Roger!" Jackee Harry and Tim Reid are really funny as Lisa and Ray! My favorite episode was the pilot! This is a great show for kids, teens, and adults to watch!!

You have to give this show SOME credit. It was a pretty long-running show, considering its home was the WB. But that being said...WHY? Why did this show make it past one season?The basic idea is two twins, Tia Landry (Tia Mowry) and Tamera Campbell (Tamera Mowry) meet up in a store one day, astonished by the fact that they look alike, and find out that they were adopted by different parents years ago. Tia and her mom Lisa (Jackee Harry) eventually move in with Tamera and her dad Ray (Tim Reid), so that the girls can get to know each other and make up for years lost.The premise sounds slightly interesting. The show is not. Basic story ideas involve boys, celebrities, boys, rivals...and oh yeah, boys. Your basic teen comedy (although I don't think it can pass as a comedy), with the same shallow plot lines. What do you expect though?Now the characters. Ugh. The twins are downright annoying--especially when they say things at the same time. Tim Reid, as Ray, seems like he really doesn't want to be there--and who would? And now for Lisa. I mentioned that the twins are annoying--but they have got nothing on Lisa. She is the most annoying creature I've ever had the misfortune of seeing in my lifetime. If she weren't on the show, it would be a lot more bearable. Some people consider her the foundation of the show--when in fact, she is the reason this show is rendered annoying. She makes me want to break the TV just to shut her up. Or at least change the channel. The only good character on here is Roger. He's so sweet and likable...which is waaay more than I can say for the rest of the cast. Roger can be worth watching the show...because he is the only good character...but even he cannot save the show from its monstrosity.Some people call this show "the black Full House." And I can see how they'd think that. Both shows are incredibly annoying, but you see that Full House has at least one corny speech (along with cheesy music) PER episode. Whereas Sister, Sister has no corny music, but just as corny speeches. Such as Lisa uttering so brilliantly in one episode, "Words can hurt!" Grr.Just avoid this show. Unless you like annoying characters, corny plot lines, or tasteless humor. And I don't think anybody does.
