      What to know

      Critics Consensus

      My Sister's Keeper gets fine performances from its adult and child actors, but the director's heavy-handed approach turns a worthy emotional subject into an overly melodramatic tearjerker. Read critic reviews

        child cancer film 'bout the affects of it on the family unit. a little disjointed. for casual viewing.

        The story was pretty sad but the film itself was lacking in something that it failed to actually move me.

        Incredibly messy and not focusing in anyone beyond the bad performance of Cameron Diaz. They tried to create a controversy that would be interesting but they gave up of everything to forcibly take the audience to tears.
