Joyful Noise
It's "The Fighting Temptations" meets "Glee" meets "Romeo and Juliet" as two rivals (Queen Latifah and Dolly Parton) compete to take their church choir to the Joyful Noise National Finals Competition in LA. Parton dishes out homespun country wisdom and pokes fun at her own physical enhancements. The ever-charming Queen Latifah demonstrates her blue collar, street-wise, over-protective parental skills. However, the young generation (Keke Palmer and Jeremy Jordan) drives this film about faith and family featuring tunes of gospel and rock 'n' roll. The story is more cleverly complex than one would expect. For a feel good gospel fun time, Alien highly recommends this "feel the music" film.
Alien gives it 3 "takes you higher" stars out of 4.
