Sister Act (1992)
5/10
Plenty of Whoopi

"Sister Act" finds Whoopi Goldberg taking refuge in a convent as a nun! This role was originally outlined for the divine Miss M (Bette Midler), who evidently was uninterested, or unavailable.

This is basically a one-gag, fish-out-of-water movie from director Emile Ardolino that is remarkably well brought off by some good supporting performances. While Whoopi Goldberg is a lot of fun (as 'Delores'), talented English thespian Maggie Smith, as the 'Mother Superior', and Kathy Najimy, as 'Sister Mary Patrick', are both wonderful. Far from hilarious, but enjoyable, and enough Whoopi to keep her fans entertained.
