Two small time hustlers loose a winning lottery ticket in a robbery. They scour the city and battle thugs to retrieve it.

Theatrical Trailer
Amazon.com essential video:
The first in a trio of very broad comedies from director Sidney Poitier features Poitier and Bill Cosby as two small-time hustlers always looking for an angle. During a robbery at a swanky nightclub, they are relieved of their wallets, only to find later that one of them had a lottery ticket that came up a winner. The chase is on as they scour the city to find their prize, along the way running up against Harry Belafonte as a sly and suave mob kingpin (with a nod to Don Corleone) with his eye on the ticket as well. Heavily influenced by the screwball comedies of the 1940s but with the thoroughly modern air of 1970s black culture, Uptown Saturday Night is a breezy affair with some old pros at the helm. --Robert Lane

In here we have Steve Jackson (Sidney Poitier) and Wardell Franklin (Bill Cosby) are two working stiffs looking to have a good time uptown. They tip out on wives Sarah Jackson (Rosalind Cash) and Irma Franklin (Ketty Lester) and go to Zenobia's, a joint - named after Madame Zenobia (Lee Chamberlin) - where the high fallutin' high rollers hang out ...

If you are stuck in the 70's as I am, this movie will take you back to where you want to be. The funny wardrobe, the out of sight lingo. It is all hilarious. Funny to see Bill Cosby in his younger days too.

I grew up watching this movie and it reminded me of the good old days. I am now able to share this with my children. Good old fashion fun. Buy this movie, you won't be disappointed.

This movie is great. Action and funny all at the same time. Even though its a little lengthy it keeps your attention to the end.
