Hey, I enjoy soft core girl on girl like every other guy. I think it can be arousing but only when it's put in to a movie that offers some form of entertainment. "Sister Emmanuelle" is a film in the "Black Emmanuelle" series that gives its star Laura Gemser very little to do for the majority of the film. While she's the protagonist, she mainly plays second fiddle to the story's nymphomaniac Monica who is a young beauty with a devil in her heart. She can't resist the lure of a good seduction, and nine times out of ten she spends the movie completely nude and coming on to a hapless character in her path. Meanwhile the gorgeous Laura Gemser is mainly just a foil for her character, resisting every single urge to pounce on young Monica, and find some way to redeem her irresistible sexual urges that guide her in to oral sex with a train passenger, and girl on girl with her roommate at a convent. "Sister Emmanuelle" is a ninety minute train wreck with a plot that doesn't make a lot of sense, even to most of you paying close attention.
 

Gemser looks bored for most of the film playing observer to Monica's antics, and then playing a more pivotal role by the final fifteen minutes run time. That's when "Sister Emmanuelle" goes from "What the hell?" to "Give me a break!" The final scenes try for convoluted and smarter than it thinks it is with writer Marino Oniroti opting for a closing segment that is a major cop out. Obviously there was a need for more "Black Emmanuelle" films, so they left the door wide open. Was it all a dream? A glimpse of things to come? Did Black Emmanuelle dream of Monica bringing down the morality of the convent? Was the dream sequence merely a call for Emmanuelle to go back to her sexual ways? "Oh who cares?" is what you'll be saying once the credits begin to roll. Granted, Gemser and Zanchi are absolute dolls (especially Gemser), but "Sister Emmanuelle" will barely inspire a semi from the male demographic. What? That's the point of these movies, don't pretend they're high art!

After having only seen the "Emmanuelle" reboots on Skinemax in the nineties, "Sister Emmanuelle" doesn't provide a good argument to go back and start on the entire series from the seventies. While the women who headline this softcore romp are gorgeous, the movie is so tedious and poorly constructed you'll move on to something a little more kinkier before the credits even start rolling.
