It's easy to assume this is just another dumb redneck comedy from Burt Reynolds's years of underachievement. But it's not bad as a dumb redneck comedy at all. Directed by career stuntman Hal Needham, Smokey and the Bandit is just a goofy chase starring a bunch of Reynolds's Hollywood cronies. New to the job as film boss, Needham brings a silly but energized sensibility to the production and an action man's need to see things moving. But he also has a distinctive feeling for relationships, and he's good with a joke. Put all that together, and Smokey is, at the very least (and unlike its sequels), a simple and original pleasure. --Tom Keogh

Rating:  - Great Late 70's Anti-Establishment Truckin' Comic Flick
Anti-establishment late '70s truckin' fun movie. Great flick with truckin', hot rods and CB radio-speak. A magnificant late '70s American movie. Great cast. Burt is perfect, as is Jackie Gleason as the ultimate redneck sheriff. (Jerry Reed is easy to ignore, but SHINED.) Sally Field shined as well.

They were'nt ... Read More
Rating:  - A movie any American should love
"East Bound and Down" is one of the great country songs, and this movie is the greatest road movie ever made, the redneck "Easy Rider," the AMERICAN "Easy Rider" (as Patton said, "Americans love a winner and will not tolerate a loser!"), filled with car chases and car wrecks, one babe, a beautifully ridiculous story, the great Jerry Reed at his weary but sarcastic redneck best, and Burt R.'s mustache at its cheesiest. It's the movie those two hippie goofs in "Easy Rider" might have made if they'd ... Read More
Rating: - smokey and the bandit
one of the best comedy films ever made

Rating: - Great gift
I purchased this for DVD for a friend, she was thrilled to receive it.
She loves the Burt Reynolds and Sally Fields combo. She loves to laugh at movies, rarely watches dramas.
I'm sure this was a great choice for her gift.
Rating: - I can't help but not like it....
Many people find me to be a person of refined and cultured taste. I like Classical music and jazz. I like to visit art museums, and I like to read poetry. All I can say about "Smokey and the Bandit" is this: it is a silly, stupid movie of little or no cultural or artistic significance; HOWEVER, I can't help but not like it. I laugh and laugh during the whole movie even though I have seen it about 100 times.
Other movies may be more artful and serious, but "Smokey and the Bandit" is such ... Read More
