The third and, one hopes, final remake of THE Jazz Singer is the least interesting attempt so far.

The most cautious soft-rock superstar movie debut you'll ever get to see.

The Jazz Singer has so many things wrong with it that a review threatens to become a list.

Top Critic Mr. Diamond, looking glum and seldom making eye contact with anyone, isn't enough of a focus for the outmoded story.

Top Critic The roughest of Diamonds, this will only interest fans of the singer and those with a passion for poor pictures.
