Goldberg offers us in Sister Act another excellent demonstration of her capacity for interpretation. [Full review in Spanish]

| Jul 25, 2024

…the kind of unassuming, crowd-pleasing, light-weight but satisfying film that cinema has completely lost the formula for by 2023…

| Original Score: 3/5 | Feb 21, 2023

Whoopi is aware of the goofy premise, refusing to take her situation with any seriousness, even though the rest of the cast attempts a level of sincerity.

| Original Score: 7/10 | Sep 24, 2020

Sister Act is outrageous fun and delicious deviltry. The laughs keep coming but, best of all, there's much humanity at work. It's a movie that just, pardon me, makes you feel darn good.

It's all pretty predictable, and if there was time you might get pissed off at the ridiculousness of it all. But things move at such a quickened pace, and the comedic timing of all involved is impressive enough to override the structural flaws.

The film trundles along, full of holy-poky, mayhem and one-liners.

The musical numbers really make Sister Act.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jun 20, 2017

Light and fluffy as it is, "Sister Act" still has plenty of laugh-out-loud moments and some warm fuzzies as well as some believable action, and that makes it a 7 out of 10 in my book. But the sequel? It's more like a 5.

| Original Score: 6/10 | Jun 24, 2012

Nothing like a heartwarming Disney comedy with a body count to raise spirits.

| Original Score: C+ | May 28, 2012

| Original Score: B- | Sep 7, 2011

A silly, harmless star vehicle for Whoopi Goldberg--sort of nuns on the run.

| Original Score: C+ | Jul 22, 2011

It's Whoopi and the girls who keep this confection tasty.
