The musical numbers really make Sister Act.

Common Sense Media
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.

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

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

Rating: 2.5/4 --
The trailer has high energy and whammo punchlines. The movie is sort of low-key and contemplative and a little too thoughtful.

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

Product Description:
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.
Description by Buena Vista Home Entertainment.:
Sister Act
Relive all the fun, laughter, and irresistible music of SISTER ACT -- the inspired comedy hit that packed pews everywhere! Whoopi Goldberg stars as a sassy, low-rent lounge singer forced to hide out from the mob in the last place on earth anyone would look for her -- a convent. While she's there, her irreverent behavior attracts a flock of faithful followers and turns the nuns' tone-deaf choir into a soulful chorus of swingin', singin' sisters. But when the group earns rave reviews, her sudden celebrity jeopardizes her hidden identity. Harvey Keitel and Kathy Najimy join a heavenly cast in this habit-forming comedy bursting with '60s Motown hits.
