Profile of Sister Act

Sister Act can be described as humorous, feel good, and exciting. The plot revolves around going against the rules, the clergy, and witnessing a crime. Its comic aspect comes from a comedy of errors and silly humor. Sister Act's main genres are comedy and music-oriented. In terms of style, it stars a strong female character. In approach, it is realistic. Sister Act is set, at least in part, in a convent. It is located in San Francisco. It takes place in the 1990s. The soundtrack of Sister Act is blues and soul. The movie has received attention for being a blockbuster and an award winner. It is well suited for a family outing and teens.

Summary of Sister Act

On-the-run after witnessing her Las Vegas mobster boyfriend kill someone, a tacky lounge singer (Whoopi Goldberg) enters the Witness Protection Program - as a nun. Now the convent needs protection, from the new Sister Mary Clarence and her Vegas-style ideas on how to run the choir. A charming comedy and one of Goldberg's best movies.

A great comedy with a lot of energy.

This is probably Goldberg's most successful role she's done, even better than her Oscar winning role in "Ghost". This film has lots of soul music in it, which is taken back to its origins - the church. I personally liked noticing the differences... Read and rate it
