Summary: Some of Cosby and Poitier's best work!
Review: Given that it was a low budget movie, Sydney Poitier's skills of directing were less than amazing. The odd way they go about winning the money is what makes it a unique classic. Who would ever think of hypnotizing two boxers? I found the score to be brilliant; then again Curtis Mayfield is a brilliant songwriter and composer so that's all he knows to produce. The Staples Singers were also the perfect group to score it. For those of you who've never seen this, it is definitely a must see. Much side splitting laughter is in store...

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A comedy classic
Review: Hiawatha aka 'Biggy' Smalls, Bootney Farnsworth... you gotta be kiddin' me. Those names alone are enough to get you laughin'. Add to that Jimmy Walker as the defending middleweight champ then throw in Coz and Sidney Poitier as two small time hustlers trying for a big score by hyptonizing Bootney to believe he's a ferocious and unbeatable fighter. Absolutely hilarious.

The outfits that Cosby and Poitier wear are classic 70's. Bold, brash, colorful, and outrageous.

I just watched this again recently and I laugh just as hard every time I see it.

Just sit back and enjoy

Summary: My all time favorite
Review: I am Bill Cosby's biggest fan, from his comedy albums in the 60s all the way through his TV sitcoms in the 80s and 90s. The "trilogy" he did with Sidney Poitier (Uptown Saturday Night, Let's Do It Again, and A Piece of the Action) are absolutely hilarious! I wish they were all on DVD. Let's Do It Again is the funniest of the three and from the plot to the costumes to the dialogue to the singing (Bill's "Ode to the Champ" is my favorite!) you will be in stitches. This movie was thoroughly entertaining, and it leaves you longing for a return to a time when sex, gruesome violence and profanity did NOT rule the film industry. You have GOT to see this movie!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: An hilarious roller-coaster!
Review: I first saw this film in Atlanta in the late 70s - my lord was it funny! 20+ years later I watched it again anticipating the humour might have somewhat waned over the years...how wrong I was! I was doubled over in hysterics! The grand doyens of black cinema and comedy give wonderfully memorable performances. This film is an absolute treat. A great film with an awesome soundtrack to boast too.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Black comedy classic
Review: I loved this movie I can remember when it first came out it was a real big movie back in the days with a really big black cast it was one of the big antisapated movies at the time and with me only being young its PG rating help me get access inside the movie house.I recommened this movie to all those as they use to call them back then black explotation movies if you love a good comedy for the whole family to get a laff this is the movie for you white,black and all.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: What a movie to see nothing but full of laughter and action
Review: I really enjoy all of the old black movies and i would really like to know if these movies are going to be offered on DVD and when. Take time out to watch the whole collection you will not be disappointed at all.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Oh yeah, You have to see this film.
Review: If only Bill Cosby can find more script like this and stay away from stuff like Leonard Part VI. The chemistry between him and Sidney Poiter is pure gold. Great supporting cast of John Amos and Jimmie Walker.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: 70's Classic
Review: LET'S DO IT AGAIN is an excellent movie. In addition to Bill Cosby and Sidney Poiter's good comic chemistry, the rest of the cast provides laughs and are all around quite entertaining. I particularly enjoyed John Amos as KANSAS CITY MAC. Speaking of KANSAS CITY MAC, the names used in this film are also quite creative; Mongo Slade, Bubba Chops, Fishin Chips Freddi, Jody Tibbs, Bootny Fansworth, just to name a few.

So all in all this film about two down on their luck guys who try to scam a couple of bookies is a very entertaining and creative film. Many buddy films afterward have been infulenced by this film.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: why not on dvd
Review: Look this movie is a classic, with the big hats and the funky vibe, but why is this not on dvd with behind the scenes add ons. The shame!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: 1975 comedy of the year!
Review: Must have for 70's fans of comedy! Bill Cosby IS VERY FUNNY - Prime example of his talent before turning to commercial Uncle TOM in 80's and 90's. Sidney plays great trick on New Orleans brothers by making JJ unbeatable fighter!

Must have - Staple Singers Soundtrack released in May 02. Necessary purchase for Staple Singers fans.
