...there's no taking away from the movie's heart and Jolson's singing. The Jazz Singer remains a classic of its kind.

By today's standards, The Jazz Singer is mawkish, crudely filmed, and full of schmaltz. Yet it remains fascinating in its historical value, not only for its technical innovation.

The Jazz Singer is not a good picture artistically, but it's historically significant and Al Johnson is truly entertaining

The Jazz Singer is a shallow attempt by a powerful group of straying Jews to clear their consciences.

In cities where the Vitaphone can be installed and reproduce his voice this picture will eminently repay attendance.
