This film truly does have something for everyone! Go to Full Review Brandon Judell IndieWire 10/31/2012
These butch lesbian sibling farmers, who have a comedy singing act (acoustic country songs), are shown fighting for gay rights and surviving cancer over the decades, and they are endearing in their suits and fake moustaches. Go to Full Review Charlotte O'Sullivan London Evening Standard 02/17/2012
4/5
Pooley could have been more probing in her interviews with the twins and their supporters. But the fact of the duo's success is so astounding you're gripped all the same. Go to Full Review Steve Cruz OUT FRONT Magazine (Denver) 05/09/2023
B+
It’s safe to say Leanne Pooley’s film delivers a mega-dose of Topp Twins; but instead of cloying, the film feels like a huge comfortable chair... with a kitten or puppy in your lap. Go to Full Review Mattie Lucas From the Front Row 08/05/2019
3/4
A rare, purely fun documentary with a purely fun subject that reaches both the funny bone and the heart in equal measure. Go to Full Review Allan Hunter Daily Express (UK) 02/16/2012
4/5

03/14/2013 Probably the most joyous documentary I've ever seen. Tells a unique and fascinating story and filled with love, genuine people, and music. See more 02/09/2012 saw this in New Zealand 3 years ago! and its fantastic! Fully recommended See more 01/28/2012 A real jamboree! I liked them; didn't like their "music." See more 01/28/2012 If you don't love this movie, something is wrong with you. See more 12/08/2011 Charming (though a bit reverential) look at these groundbreaking and door opening twins. The filmmaker wisely cuts away from the subdued and ordinary framing concert at every opportunity using the music as a backdrop for the sister's fascinating history. I would love to see the Topp Twins tour with a reunited Romanovsky and Phillips. See more 11/29/2011 It's like Dame Edna has a twin sister, and they're both talented singer/songwriters, and they're yodelling lesbian activists ... and they're hilarious! See more Read all reviews
