Jackie's Back Reviews

---

A Modern Comedic Classic
Robert Townsend's comic send-up to all the divas and wannabe divas everywhere, "Jackie's Back" is pure camp at its best.

Character actress extraordinaire Jennifer Lewis is wonderful in the title role of a child star's meteoric rise to fame as a singer in the entertainment industry and her just as quick descent into obscurity as an adult. Full of non-stop laughs and witty one-liners, the movie is further enhanced by the expert supporting cast; the guest cameo appearances are an added bonus and a real hoot.

Definitely one of director Townsend's best, I must have watched this film three times in a row and still got something new and enjoyable out it. The upbeat finale will have you singing along. Run, don't walk to get this one!!

One of the funniest movies I have EVER SEEN!
I have been looking for this movie for TWO years!!! Jenifer Lewis is one of the most versatile actresses in TV and Film. I laughed so hard at this "mockumentary" that I cried for days. I taped it from Lifetime but I watched it so much that the tape broke! I am so happy to have found it on Amazon! My friends will die when they know I found it! I can't wait to have a Jackie's Back Party!
