Great Film overall

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

Short-tempered Sister Kelly Wrath (a fabulously feisty performance by Sarah Nicklin) gets gunned down in an alley. She's subsequently chosen by God to join the vigilante squad The Order of the Black Habit, who are a group of crime fighting nuns on a mission to eradicate the mob. Director Richard Griffin, who also co-wrote the brash and irreverent script with Ted Marr, really makes the most out of the gloriously outrageous premise: We've got often hysterically profane dialogue (Sister Wrath swears like a truck driver), excessive bloody violence, lesbianism, broadly drawn stereotypical characters, wild bone-crunching fights, ninja rabbis, Gandhi popping up as a benign martial arts instructor (!), and even an incredible musical number featuring a rapping Jesus and a break dancing nun. Moreover, the lively cast has a field day with the off the wall material, with especially praiseworthy work from Alexandra Cipollo as the sweet and flirtatious Sister Pride, Shanette Wilson as the bawdy Sister Lust, Ruth Sullivan as the antagonistic Sister Gluttony, Rich Tretheway as fearsome mobster Momma Rizzo, Brandon Luis Aponte as the ruthless Richie Corbucci, and, in a truly stand-out turn, David Lavallee Jr. as vicious Jewish hit-man Viper Goldstein. Moreover, Michael Reed does sterling duty as a hip Christ and a supremely suave Satan, Deborah Rochon has a snappy bit as a fed-up Mother Superior, and Lloyd Kaufman makes a priceless cameo appearance as the pope. Jacob Larimore's vibrant cinematography provides a neat stylish look. Both the cool soundtrack and the funky throbbing score by Tony Milano and Daniel Hildreth hits the get-down groovy spot. A total riot.

Laughed my butt off. this effort by director Richard Griffin has an excellent sense of irony and irreverent humor combined with excellent comic pacing. I recommend seeing it more than once since you will very likely be laughing thru half the jokes the first time around. It's the story of an order of vigilante nuns (The Black Habit) with a special penchant for dealing justice out to evil mobsters. There's some soft-core nudity (always nice) and every conceivable variation of nun jokes and religious humor in general. The violence is over the top bloody without being a gorefest. Normally I'm not one for musical numbers, but this has some real rib ticklers. Where else are you going to laugh when Jesus does a song and dance with a bevy of leather-clad nuns providing backup? What's really tasty is the cast. Sarah Nicklin simmers with sexual attitude, Brand Aponte is perfect as the angry mob avenger and the rest of the cast CAN ACTUALLY ACT! Incredible in a low budget film, I know, but it's true. This is one of the big redeeming factors here where most low budget efforts fall flat. Don't get my wrong, I'm a big fan of badly acted low budget features. But in those instances the bad acting is the reason I laugh. I have a very MST3000 sense of humor. But not so here. Mr. Griffin has managed to corral some real talent and it makes all the difference. One laughs at the jokes, not at the acting. With him, not at him. So do yourself a favor and pick this one up. Unless you're devoutly religious, you'll have a great time. And even if you are and have a sense of humor, you could still find yourself in stitches.

Nun of That is one of those Movies that make Indie Film Makers think "Damn! Why didn't I think of that?"Nuns in a 70's Style Kung Fu Revenge Grindhouse Exploitation Film with comedy tossed in. In the wrong hands this would NOT work but Scorpio Films Releasing executed it heavenly.It starts Sara Nicklin, who plays Sister Kelly Wrath. Cult fans of 70's Exploitation films would think Pam Grier worthy performance. I could see Sister Wrath kicking ass right next to Foxy Brown. And she basically does with Shanette Wilson as Sister Lust. I won't give any spoilers away but Sister Lust lives up to her name. Ruth Sullivan and Alexandra Cipolla round out the gang of Vigilante Nuns as Sister Gluttony and Sister Pride. Stellar Performances, Great Comedic timing and of course more ass kicking action.And that's just the Vigilante Nuns! The rest of the cast is beyond spectacular, they're down right groovy. I don't want to ruin it, you must see this movie!

I had the pleasure of seeing Richard Griffin's new film "Nun of That" this past weekend and I am happy to say that it is one of the best comedies I have seen in a long time! The story is fresh, the dialog is witty, the acting is top notch, the cinematography is fantastic and the action sequences are thrilling. A special round of applause goes to Sarah Nicklin as the ass-kickin' Sister Wrath and Michael Reed as Jesus & Satan (wouldn't know it was the same guy)...not to mention, Rich Tretheway as Mama Rizzo! Honestly, there are too many talented actors to list.This film had the audience busting out in laughter and is destined to be a huge success!
