Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Pure fun for the family
This is pure fun from start to end. A bit corny, perhaps but with James Stewart, who cares? I is a shame it's not out yet on DVD, however, if you have TMC or FMC ( not sure which one) and a DVR, keep your eyes open. every now and they they play it. It's a great way to have a copy until they have on DVD and buy it here at Amazon.

You read enough of the other reviews so there is not much more I can add, just share this little tip I hope you take. It is not on often like most movies so ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Will success spoil Jimmy Stewart?
JACKPOT is a hilarious peek into the private lives of a normal family in 1950 made suddenly mad by winning a big radio prize. This is great family fun and deserves a place in your collection. Why it has not yet been released on DVD is a mystery to me. However, if you have never seen it -- don't wait and purchase the VHS copy, because it's just that good.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Not Good Enough For DVD?
This is a delightfully engaging movie and I personally consider it a vital part of Americana. Life of the typical middle class family making it big when they win a radio quiz show and how it then impacts their lives. Then there is the taxman...

I only wish that this film could somehow be transferred into DVD format or packaged into a ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Delightfully Cute
Jimmy Stewart & Barbara Hale keeps the plot moving. I really enjoyed watching it. Natalie Wood was kind of "dorky", but her little brother "Tommy" was a better actor. The overall movie is "delightfully cute". Barbara Hale shows her "versatility" for acting.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Radio game show winnings turn life upside-down.
One of Jimmy Stewart's most overlooked films. This picture is pure 1950's. Stewart is an overworked family man, (Similar to his role in Mr. Hobbs Takes A Vacation, but The Jackpot is a much better picture.) who wins a radio game show. Prizes range from the useful to the absurd. Everything is fine until he finds out he's got to pay taxes on all of his loot. Probably as much pure fun as any Jimmy Stewart picture.
