Amy Poehler tells Seth Meyers she doesn’t care about ‘Star Wars’

Working from a screenplay by veteran “Saturday Night Live” writer Paula Pell (who also contributed to Fey’s long-running sitcom, “30 Rock”) and directed by Jason Moore, best known for guiding the inaugural “Pitch Perfect” to the screen, “Sisters” relies on a straightforward premise – the impending sale of a beloved childhood home – to orchestrate debauchery in service of arrested development. Up to date: 19:32 EST, 18 December 2015 Famous for her longtime friendship to fellow show star Amy Poehler, Tina Fey could moreover be one of America’s favourite gal buddies. And then she just lost it. In fact, it’s the same qualities that attracted the boys to Poehler that make it so easy now for Fey to successfully collaborate with her time and time again.

She went on to say that “when you feel less than (in high school, everyone feels less than everyone else for different reasons) in your mind it’s a way of leveling the playing field”.

Toward the end of the party, Dad admonishes the group of assembled adults to “go home before I call your children”, and that wordplay seems to be the premise that launched the film: What happens when middle-aged folks party as if they’re in high school? Well, things are very boring at first, until Kate gives a rousing motivational speech and rallies the troops with rounds of shots.

Tina Fey insists the change in attitude towards women in comedy is all about money. There are plenty of great comedic actors throughout, including Bobby Moynihan as a profoundly uncool friend who spirals into a hilariously manic drug haze. “I was Brinda”, laughed Fey, referring to Maya Rudolph’s nosey and nerdy character in the film.

Sisters is an odd mashup that, unfortunately, isn’t worthy of all the talent involved.
