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

 Let's do It Again, and Again and Again!!!! July 22, 2010
butchie
Comedy at it's best! A superior 'period' piece, simply all 70's yet the story and antics are timeless. One expreiences the comic genius of Bill Cosby, the beauty of Denise Nichols, the supurb supporting cast, including Nichols, Calvin Lockhart, a very good John Amos, veteran Ossie Davis, Mel Harris and Jimmy "JJ" Walker. And of course Mr.Director and co-star, Sidney Poitier. Need to take a Friday or Saturday night and watch "Uptown Saturday Night" and then delight in "Let's Do It Again". Oh yeah....take notice of George Foreman and a beautiful, young, new, Jayne Kennedy.

Sit back relax and get ready to laugh your butt off. This movie is as funny and entertaining now as it was when it debuted. Family fun. Hats off to the seasoned stars of that era.

This classic urban comedy features an all-star cast! Bill Cosby, Sidney Poitier, John Amos...
Although it was made before my fiance and I were even born(1975), we were both in tears laughing throughout the whole movie. We were so happy to find it available to buy on Amazon!
"Let's Do It Again" is the BEST and FUNNIEST of the three buddy comedies featuring Cosby and Poitier from the 1970's. "A Piece of the Action" and "Uptown Saturday Night" are funny as well, but "Let's Do It Again" is hilarious and has a great soundtrack!
Wonderful September 3, 2008
