Storyline

The sisters come back to Delores's show to get her back as Sister Mary Clarence to teach music to a group of students in their parochial school which is doomed for closure. One of the girls, who is the most talented of the bunch, is forbidden to sing by her mother, although the choir has made it to the state championship. A group of stereotypical incompetent monks tries to stop them. Written by Scott Hutchins <scottandrewh@home.com>

Excellent comedy about sticking together
23 November 2005 | by (Chantilly, Virginia, USA) – See all my reviews

SISTER ACT 2: BACK IN THE HABIT, in my opinion, is an excellent comedy about sticking together. It really made me feel good and smile, especially when Deloris (Whoopi Goldberg) performed her solo act at the beginning of the movie. Also, the soundtrack is really good, too. The best things about it, in my opinion, are the musical number. My favorite song of the movie would have to be either "Ain't No Mountain High Enough" or the St. Francis Academy's rendition of "Joyful, Joyful." In conclusion, if you like Whoopi Goldberg films, I highly recommend this movie. You're in for a good time and lots of laughs, so see this movie today.
