-My comments
My friend recommended this movie to me long time ago. Finally, I watched it! I like it so much!! This movie came out 18 years ago. I’m sure it moved us all through the ages. Especially I like the scene which the choir’s members are singing. The last scene is wonderful. I like Mary Robert’s singing voice!! It’s awesome!!
I watched “Sister Act 2”. This is also good one. If you like “Sister Act”, I recommend you to watch “Sister Act 2”. In “Sister Act 2”, the main characters are not nuns but students.
I think “Oh happy day” is famous song in this movie. You can watch and listen on You Tube. If you don’t have enough time to watch this movie, I want you to just listen to this song! I love it!

GO TO YouTube!! ↓↓

-My comments
It’s the first time for me to watch this movie. I like it so much!!
Andy doesn’t give up about her boss’ cruel demand. I think Andy is very lucky because she is helped by her coworker. Without Nigel’s help, she couldn’t endure her hard work. After I watch it, I think I want to watch it again.I bought DVD!
I didn’t know Anne Hathaway until I’ve watched it. But I think she is very good actress! She is in The Princess Diaries (I wrote about it on this blog.), Get Smart (I’ll write about it on my blog.), Rachel Getting Married, Bride Wars, Alice in Wonderland. I’ve watched these movies (except Alice in Wonderland) on WOWOW. Thank you, my friend WOWOW! XD
