The Skeleton Twins Bill Hader and Kristen Wiig star as estranged siblings brought together after a tragedy, who must work out their differences and old issues. While Craig Johnson‘s new film has two comedic powerhouses, it is more dramatic than humorous. But the characters’ polarizing differences make for great chemsitry, and some very surprising moments.
