Joyful Noise **

Fun and bubbly, just like Dolly herself, "Joyful Noise" is a pleasant diversion with some toe-tapping music, burnished with a slick gospel shine. Dolly Parton and Queen Latifa go at it, nicely most of the time, in this souped up "Glee" episode that features competing visions of the which way the church choir should go in the annual competition. Keke Palmer as Latifah's daughter, and Jeremy Jordan as Dolly's grandson add the love interest, spice, and some good singing. Don't expect too much, and you may be converted into a fan.
