A delightfully delicious dilemma!
They're back for the third fun-filled time! Following Uptown Saturday Night and Let's Do It Again, Sidney Poitier and Bill Cosby play Manny and Dave, two Chicago crooks skilled at ripping off rip-off artists who exploit the poor. They don't intend to give to the poor until a sly detective (James Earl Jones) anonymously pulls a con of his own: they must donate time to the Community Center... or do time in the Federal pen.
As selfish Robin Hoods evolving into selfless role models, the stars offer the pleasure the best screen teams effortlessly do, while a Curtis Mayfield score and Staple Singers soundtrack tunes make for easy listening. And as it glides toward a grand-finale sting, this light-on-its-feet caper becomes a piece of viewing action not to be missed!
