Matrixiole Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.

GarnettTeenage The film was still a fun one that will make you laugh and have you leaving the theater feeling like you just stole something valuable and got away with it.

Livestonth I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

merelyaninnuendo A Skeleton TwinsA fascinating uptake with a newer perspective on dysfunctional family drama through a siblings' vision, is a smarter way to create a light but a deeply intense feature. The writing is smart, grippingly and thoroughly entertaining except for an issue on the structure of the script that follows a rudimentary process which undermines the feature as it grows predictable as it ages on screen. Craig Johnson; the screenwriter and the director, has done a marvellous work on executing the anticipated vision on screen along with amazing visuals as it is shot beautifully too. The performance by both the lead actors is stupendous but the highlight of it would be Kirsten Wiig who is the real game changer in here. Bill Hader and Kirsten Wiig's chemistry is the crucial point in here as all the connections and conversations among the "siblings" should come off believable and fortunately they are convincing too. Despite of raising fragile and dark topics, the feature is light and breezy for the most part of it which shows the awareness of the makers, as the core relation projected in here is of twins. A Skeleton Twins has a crooked childhood, troubled twins and justifying actions occurring on screen throughout its almost 90 minutes that is utterly palpable to its tone.

andredejongh Lovely movie!How come I hardly heard of this movie? It is now 2017 and I just now 'discovered' this film. It is a beautiful movie with real, honest heartfelt characters. Hilarious funny at times, emotionally funny many more times and emotionally serious in between. But it never gets too heavy. The humour makes we can dive into some heavy topics without us all going really down with it. You start to feel for all the characters: beautiful, honest three dimensional people. Some reviewer was nagging about too heavy symbolism. It is not too heavy. It is present but you can ignore it totally if you want. A beautiful, well crafted, well acted, well directed, well edited and with some nice cool music. Loved the scene were the two main characters playback 'Nothing's gonna stop us now' by Starship. We all have been young, we all have secrets, we all become adults we all live our lives amidst relationships. This movie tells this story with lots of love, emotional intelligence and integrity. And lots of humour. A movie you can re-watch every so time. Goes into my favourite list.

rkhen Others here have done a good job of covering this unusually-casted, surprisingly-strong movie, but for those in a hurry, here's my list of reactions: 1. Bill Hader joins Will Forte ("Nebraska") on the list of latter-day SNLers who have a real talent for sensitive, believable drama. That all by itself is worth the price of admission.2. The chemistry between Hader and Wiig is a spectacle all by itself. And kudos to the writers for scripting a remarkably realistic sibling relationship.3. Luke Wilson's role as husband/brother-in-law avoids the usual smear of white-bread, sports-bar types as dumb or annoying. Though his character is secondary, a case could be made that he's the hero of this movie. 4. Daring, divergent depiction of a teacher/student romantic relationship, probably closer to real life than the after school special clichés we're usually handed. Without endorsing their behaviour, script and actors make the characters human and fallible, rather than evil and/or abused. 5. This Duplass Brothers film has a very similar atmosphere to their "Safety Not Guaranteed". (That's a good thing.) Finally: 6. Unusual, believable ending, open-ended enough to keep us wondering, promising enough for comfort. Conclusion: see it. Bill Hader, and the Hader/Wiig dynamic, are must-love.

brian maosn After 10 minutes in I wasn't sure if I could go further with this movie, the gay character is so cliché and annoyingly cynical, and he even knows hes cliché, he wears the damn scarf.I could already tell the message of what this story was gonna be. I'm glad this is an independent film because I don't want the general public exposed to another negative gay stereotype (the suicidal, sexual tension with every guy he sees, older lovers, not an outdoors guy cynic) I was hoping Kristen Wiig saved this movie, if she did I didn't stick around to find out This gay character is the reason why gay hate crimes happen, I was cringing so much within the first 20 minutes, okay so the obvious message is that this gay character needs to grow up
