Sister Act | Year: 1992 Classification: Comedy Directed: - Emile Ardolino Actors/Actresses: - Whoopi Goldberg - Maggie Smith Simply Irresistable! One of the things I truly enjoy about Whoopi Goldberg films is that she is always joined by an all-star cast and plots that make the practical actor cringe. Whoopi plays Delores Van Cartier a lounge singer who witnesses a vicious crime commited by her married lover and as a result goes undercover as a nun in order to not be found. But upon arriving at the church she overcomes several obstacles, these include the mean-spirited nun Mother Superior, and trying not to reveal her true identity. Later she joins the nun's musical choir and realizes just how truly bad they are, so the nuns insist that she be the musical instructor, and transforms the bad nun's choir into a hip funky choir that is just out of this world. I give this album five stars because of Whoopi's incredible acting talent, and the movie itself is simply irresistable! If your looking for a movie that will have you on the edge of your seat, and laughing relentlessly, I would definitely recommend this movie to you! Singing Praise To God In a tailor-made role, Whoopi Goldberg stars as a Motown lounge-singer in Reno who witness the murder of a chauffeur at the hands of her married boyfriend and mobster, Harvey Kietel. When she goes to the police, they need to hide her some place safe, and they find a place where no one would think to look for the mistress-singer ... a convent. Maggie Smith also stars as the Mother Superior who agrees to shelter the newly christened Sister Mary Clarence, and in the hands of Whoopi, you can guess what happens to their woefully inadequate choir. This is one of those films it's hard not to like. The role was made for Whoopi, and she plays it for all it's worth. The nuns are all cute, the fish out of water story has built in laughs, and the music is terrific - really gets the toes tapping. There's nothing deep or earth shattering here, and thank God for that. It's simply a film about singing out your joy and serving others. In other words, it's a feel good movie and a lot of fun. You Can't Ban Me is wrong This is a classic disgrace of a movie by Whoopi Goldberg, one of the suckiest actreses of our time. Much to the previous reviewer's chagrin, people who dislike her know real talent like Chris Rock, Richard Pryor, Sam Kinison(so we are not racists). It was RIGHT of Slim Fast to dump the greedy tyrant Goldberg from their ads after she made some candid remarks about the president. Anyway, this film is a masterpiece of garbage. I have zilch respect for Whoopi and despise everything she does. Buy Sister Act at Amazon.com Buy posters at Allposters.com Jamster - the latest ringtones for your phone!
