An all-time favorite, because the character touches are right: Burt Reynolds & Sally Field are at their most winsome; Jerry Reed is entirely believable, and there's a basset for good measure. Jackie Gleason almost steals the show. For a movie about driving fast, there's a surprising amount of dialog, as the characters negotiate their various circumstances. I'm not going to pretend it isn't a cartoony movie -- "The Dukes of Hazzard" simply copied most of it -- but it's got just the right mix of character, action & humor for me. 4/5 stars
