weirdly moved by the way the singing is shot once delores starts taking over the choir! there’s one really good shot where they’re dancing and singing “i will follow him” at the end and they dolly into the choir and whoopi looks like beethoven with her gorgeous hair out of…

Kalina Daskalova likedSister ActI really enjoyed it! Love musicals and this one was on my list for ages. Glad I watched it. There’s a scene that reminds me a bit of the “after the palace fight” from “Mulan” (the scene with the emperor/the mother superior and the “nun”- if you know, you know). I loved that scene
Tamia King likedSister ActPure 90s nostalgia with a legendary soundtrack It's funny, sincere, and surprisingly touching as it explores transformation and community. Whether you're here for the holy hilarity or the iconic I Will Follow Him finale, it's a feel-good classic that always hits the right note.

So much fun. Honestly this concept is wonderfully original & a lot of fun. It’s funny and sweet and really enjoyable to watch. I wouldn’t necessarily call it a musical, but the songs that are in it are iconic ofc. Also love the sisterhood- too many movies focus on romance
Kward0610 lovedSister ActAn iconic and fun movie about redemption and finding a new purpose in life. Whoopi Goldberg is fantastic in the lead role and this is a heartwarming, funny and charming movie with some great musical numbers.
Celeste lovedSister ActI’ve been avoiding watching this for a while because I didn’t think it would be good but it was amazing! It was just the right amount of funny and I am a sucker for a happy ending.

Metacritic
The first time I saw the coming attractions trailer for Sister Act, I roared with laughter and delight. Unfortunately, it's better directed than the movie. The trailer has high energy and whammo punchlines. The movie is sort of low-key and contemplative and a little too thoughtful.

Despite its hopeless predictability, this is one of those preposterous and sweet-natured family frolics that you find yourself enjoying in spite of yourself. Check your critical faculties in at the door and get stuck in.

Sister Act was screened on Wednesday night for an audience of 300 nuns who found a lot of it funny, especially a closing gag about the Pope. Secular audiences aren't likely to be so charitable.
