I haven't read the novel, but if it's anything like this screenplay, I'm glad I didn't. There was so much pointless useless filler (the scarf, sick horse, etc.) in the 122 min runtime, any substance could've been summed up in 1 hour. This film was basically a long journey, searching for a destination it never reaches. Even the title was dumb... the Sisters Brothers? If that was supposed to be funny, it wasn't. Nevertheless, the outstanding performances by the all-star cast and the excellent cinematography are the only reason I saw this to the end. Stunned at all the rave reviews. It's only a 6/10 from me.
