| I've seen this movie and am glad to have a copy. Sister Act 2: BAck in the Habit can't and it will never be compared to the original one but the sequel has a distinct uniqueness and individual artistry to follow up for. Sister Mary Clarence, a music teacher is back again to teach young and talented kids at St. Francis School in San Francisco. The sisters need her help and they're running out of ideas on how to stop the school from closing down. Finally, with a lot of PATIENCE, help and lots of encouragements the students proved to everybody by joining the competition that they're not just bunch of kids but they can do GOOD things through MUSIC and TEAMWORK. My favorite part of the movie when they started performing "Joyful,Joyful" with Lauryn Hill doing the intro I was blewn away. |

| In "Sister Act 2: Back In The Habit", Whoopi Goldberg returns as Sister Mary Clarence. This time, she and the sisters work in a San Francisco High School to save the school from closing down by truning their music class into a chior.
I never found this film to be just as funny as the first "Sister Act" movie. But there were a couple of great musical sequences, which ultimately saved this movie. Whoopi with the classic rock/soul medley in the opening and the kids chior singing "Joyful Joyful", which I found to be pretty good. I think the most important element about the second Sister Act movie was that several members of the kids chior went on to star in other movies, including Jennifer Love Hewitt and Alanna Urbach. But the most notable in the kids chior was future Fugees member and grammy award winner Lauryn Hill. Kathy Najimy, Mary Wickes, Wendy Makkena, James Coburn, Ryan Toy of the R&B group City High and Maggie Smith also star.

| The first Sister Act was great--You're supposed to see the movie, to get into the characters/storyline. I did that w/the first one. Not in this second--all I saw was the effort.
The basic plot is the same as the first ("saving" the kids the way whoopi's character was "saved"; the mafia still chasing after whoopi's character).
zzzzzzz.....
Enjoy the first Sister Act and be happy. (btw--the kids don't sing. They do hiphop and rapping at the end of movie. Rapping, for those who don't know the difference, is not singing. Sorry folks!) |
