-Paul McCartney and Stevie Wonder.

The Plot The film is about a national gospel choir competion. The focus is more on the journey, not the competion itself. Vi Rose Hill (Choir Director)-Queen Latifah Quote "Dont bring God into your ugly, petty, adolescent, bullshit." Children Olivia Hill-Keke Palmer Walter Hill-Dexter Darden And (Husband and Father, Separated) Marcus Hill-Jesse L. Martin

Bernard Sparrow (Kristoferson), the original choir director. Was married to G.G. Sparrow (Parton). Bernard dies early in the film. Randy Sparrow (Jordan), the new kid on the block, is living with G.G.; he is her nephew.

I Beg Your Parton

Everyday, Dolly Parton looks more and more like Steve Tyler. Quotes "Sooner or later...you're going to have to grow a set." "Tryin’ to fool me is like trying to sneak sunrise past a rooster." "If quit now, than you're quitting on God."

Pastor Dale (Vance), played by the guy from LAW AND ORDER: CRIMINAL INTENT. No, not Goren or Ames: he is the sensible Assistant D.A., who doesn't like your ideas, regardless of what they are. In this movie, you could swear he is playing the same character.

Olivia and Randy Sitting in a Tree

Randy Garrity is Boning dating Vi’s daughter. Teaches Walter to play piano. Walter does look pretty sharp with the 'Usher' sunglasses.

"That sounds like rock and or roll."

Walter (Darden) is a happy kid, obsessed with 1-hit wonders, except Queen Latifah.  "He (God) made me this way." This is bordering on ridiculous. Up to this point, you think Walter is just a high-functioning, autistic kid. Everyone, (except Sean Penn), knows that you never go 'full on retard' in a movie.

"Mama, I'll see you again tonight in my head movies. But this head movies m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-makes my eyes rain. -TROPIC THUNDER(2008)

"It’s too expensive and we always lose."

What if I told you that… We have just entered you all...in the All State Music Competition? Six weeks from Saturday in Hollywood! Hollywood?                What? Let's go! (Dialogue from SISTER ACT II)

There is something I have to say, and it's not easy. Please don't send me any hate mail. This movie completely ripped off SISTER ACT 2; BACK IN THE HABIT (1993) They should the title from JOYFUL NOISE, to: SISTER ACT 3: KICK'N IT @ THE HABIT...MAD OL' SCHOOL YO!.

Nationals take place in Hollywood: that's the conclusion...and they don't win.

Boring, predictable, unoriginal, directionless, genuinely offensive, and lacking in entertainment value. Comparatively speaking, it makes Tyler Perry look like a genius. I would like to create a time machine, just to avoid every seeing this film.

Final Verdict: 10 out of 100
