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.

3.5/5

It’s confrontational and uncomfortable, but also peaceful and filled with celebration and uncut humanity. A rich, frank, and honest film.

[With] a low-key ghoulish humor…Jack Has a Plan bookends the moments of Jack’s emotional departure with an audio-visual scrapbook of memories and some lovely discoveries.
