Tina Kakadelis Beyond the Cinerama Dome It’s always difficult to create something so deeply personal, especially in a documentary format, but Jack Has a Plan excels in showing the audience the totality of this man. It’s sentimental and heartfelt, but still accessible. Oct 8, 2024 Full Review Bill Arceneaux Moviegoing with Bill It’s confrontational and uncomfortable, but also peaceful and filled with celebration and uncut humanity. A rich, frank, and honest film. Rated: 3.5/5 Apr 12, 2024 Full Review Christopher Llewellyn Reed Hammer to Nail Jack, it turns out, had a very good plan, indeed. Mar 2, 2023 Full Review Michael J.
