From 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


Review

An unnecessary remake of a film that has always been more important as history than as drama, 1980's The Jazz Singer is an embarrassing vanity project for a star that, at least onscreen, has little to be vain about. To start with the obvious first, Neil Diamond is at least a decade and a half too old for the role, a fact which immediately undercuts the believability of the story -- and this is a story which needs every shred of credibility it can muster. Compounding this problem is that the star simply can't act; his performance is an embarrassment of clichd reactions, deadly line readings and a bizarre combination of both underacting and over-emoting. Diamond aside, the film also suffers from a trite screenplay filled with dreadful dialogue. You think the film has reached its nadir when Diamond actually performs in blackface (and for the most ridiculous of reasons); in fact, that happens within the first fifteen minutes, and there are still plenty of low points to come. Laurence Olivier's work is, in a word, hammy, and he's not helped by Richard Fleischer's uninspired and dull direction. Only Lucie Arnaz manages to make a decent impression; her work isn't spectacular, but it's a welcome relief to what surrounds her. Fans of Diamond will also appreciate the score (which has absolutely nothing to do with jazz, but which was quite popular -- much more so than the film itself). For devotees of the singer, that may be enough; others are advised to skip this one altogether. ~ Craig Butler, All Movie Guide

1.0étoiles sur 5 Luci Arnaz- remove this from your resume, Mars 10 2004

This review is from: Jazz Singer (VHS Tape)
Ugh. Poor plot development and cardboard characters. For example, he loves his wife sooooo much and discards her sooooo easily? Not likely. Lucie Arnaz, a wonderful personality and normally "good" actress is a cartoon character. Who could fall in love with Neil Diamond with all his angst and schmaltzy whining? Not I, that's for sure.

This is not a great adaptation of the Jazz singer,the acting is mediocre,the progress of the plot is unrealistic,but Neil Diamond`s great music makes it worth watching.I used to have the soundtrack to this movie,i enjoyed it a great deal.
