Back in the day, when Richard Roundtree, Fred Williamson, Issac Hayes, and Pam Grier were stickin' it to the Man, Sidney Poitier and Bill Cosby collaborated on three buddy comedies that offered urban audiences an alternative to private dicks, sex machines, and bad muthas. The Uptown Saturday Nightstars re-team for an "outtasite" scam involving hypnosis, a hopeless beanpole boxer (Jimmie Good Times Walker), and two rival kingpins. Though in fashion and patois Let's Do It Again is a candidate for the '70s time capsule, it does hold up better than most of its more militant blaxploitation brethren. Poitier, the straight man, and Cosby, working his improvisational mojo, are a great comedy team. Worth the price of purchase alone is the sight of these icons decked out in flamboyant Mack Daddy duds to impress their marks, Kansas City Mack (John Amos) and Biggie Smalls (Calvin Lockhart). Curtis Mayfield's score, with vocals by the Staples Singers, is also good for the soul. --Donald Liebenson

5 out of 5 stars Best Poitier/Cosby comedy   November 15, 2007
KayKay
I never get tired of looking at this particular film. It has me gasping for air, from laughing so hard! Especially the part where Billy Foster (Bill Cosby) is dressed in the weirdest outfit when he makes a bet with the big time hoods. This is a must see!


5 out of 5 stars Enjoyed the movie   July 19, 2007
Melinda Mccall (Hope Hull, AL USA)
I have seen this movie so many times that I just can't remember. I purchased it so I could view it anytime. It is so funny and it is clean enough that all your family members can enjoy it,too . When Sidney Poitier and Bill Cosby team-up, then you know you are in for a funny and enjoyable movie

This movie is a mystery to me - could you please let me know when I purchased this movie because if I ordered it, it was never received and if I find a charge to my card for it, it will be protested. I heard the movie was good, though.
