Review by anonymous (posted on 1-May-2006)

Saw this movie for the first time this past weekend. Had no idea it existed, but thanks to my nephew I had the chance to enjoy it. I enjoyed it, it was funny, loved the style of doing in documentary fashion. Jennifer Lewis is HA-LA-RI-OUS!. The idea of Whoopie being the 'bitter' sister, brilliant. Besides all the scenes, I was amazed such a number of faces I have known over the years participated in the production, even though the scenes where small. Just enjoyed the laughs, and I would actually like to get the sound track is there is one available. Yield, yield, yield. LMAO
