Editorial Review:
Amazon.com:
Not much jazz spoken in this 1980 version of the Jolson classic, directed by Richard Fleischer (The Vikings) and starring a very tentative Neil Diamond as a cantor's son who would rather sing commercially than in a synagogue. The soundtrack is tedious, the portrait of L.A.'s music industry preposterous, and Diamond (despite his talents as a singer-songwriter in the real world) can't help but look like a speck on the wall in the presence of Laurence Olivier, who plays his father. --Tom Keogh

Rating:  - The Jazz Singer
Fantastic!! Just like the original that I saw at the movies!
Will buy again from seller!
Rating: - Great entertainment
Very interesting movie. The performances are just like the ones I saw at a recent Neil Diamond concert. He is always good. Lucy Arnez was outstanding! A movie to watch multiple times.
Rating: - Neil Diamond, of course
If you read my other review of Neil Diamond's Love at the Greek, you know I'm a 40 year fan! It was so great to get this DVD to replace my old VHS version which I lost during a move. I read the other reviews on this and yes, it's a little old and grainy, but doesn't that make it even better? Ever been in one of those old buildings in New York...that's what they look like. If you had the original, you know it's not a spiffy new HD version, but the story is just as good and enjoyable as it was ... Read More
