Mixes Nuns on the Run and The Sound of Music and unsurprisingly falls inbetween. The singing is inspired and there's a feel good reward to investing even minor interest. Knowing TheDenizen's normal intake of film helped elicit a hard laugh at his review.

Ignored it as a comedy , embraced it as light drama and came away happy. I am intrigued to see how they are stretching this premise into a THIRD film.

Way better than I expected having only seen it once, years ago. Of course, the best scenes are with Goldberg in the convent and especially going head to head with Smith's Mother Superior. Third act with the gangsters and a lot of running around, kinda just drops the ball. Although I'll admit to tearing up laughing when Sister Mary Clarence elbows two men right in the nards. I'm classy and sophisticated like that.

This is a fish out of water movie or a fish dropped in soda movie or fish who learned to sing movie or something, I guess. Whoopi Goldberg sings and generally sucks and that's all you need to know.
