This is an okay comedy short featuring Thelma Todd and Patsy Kelly. However, okay for this team is actually pretty good, as they were clearly the third-rate team from Hal Roach Studios at the time--and generally received scripts that were deemed too poor for Laurel & Hardy or CHarley Chase. I have noticed that some IMDb reviewers like their films, though I have never been bowled over by them and see them as time-passers or worse. What I mean by this is that Patsy's persona in the films is so loud and abrasive, sometimes I feel like throwing something at the TV as I watch--though in some she is, thankfully, a bit more restrained. Here in "Sing, Sister, Sing" she is a bit restrained.
The film has nothing to do with singing but is instead about Patsy moving in with Thelma. For once, Patsy generally stays out of trouble and it's Thelma that has serious problems. It seems that about midway through the film Thelma begins sleepwalking--leading to a rather funny punchline at the end.
While not a great film and certainly NOT one equal to the Laurel & Hardy shorts of the time, this one is decent and good for one or two laughs--but not a lot more.
