David Jenkins Little White Lies 05/21/2022
It’s Cotillard canon, and one for the director’s top tier, without doubt. Go to Full Review Peter Bradshaw Guardian 05/21/2022
2/5
This is exasperatingly nonsensical and humourless: it is full of grand gestures, gigantically self-important acting, big scenes (though often bafflingly truncated), big emotions and smirkingly knowing dialogue. Go to Full Review Ben Croll IndieWire 05/21/2022

Brother and Sister seems more like a retread (and a retreat) than anything that’s come prior, marking a new step forward for the lauded director by taking a disappointing step back. Go to Full Review Hector A. Gonzalez InSession Film 07/25/2023

Desplechin might have done his worst feature to date with Brother and Sister. Unfortunately, after displaying some creativity with his work on his previous film, he follows it up with a total disaster. Go to Full Review Dustin Chang ScreenAnarchy 04/03/2023
Both Cortillard and Poupaud are marvelous as they act out the beautifully written script by Desplechin. It's the most emotionally resonant Desplechin film in years. Go to Full Review M.G. Mailloux In Review Online 03/10/2023
Open to appreciation on a number of different levels, Brother and Sister is pure Desplechin minus the self-mythologizing, a slight reset that still maintains the director’s sly humor and destabilizing approach to sequencing Go to Full Review Read all reviews
