	Smokey and the Bandit Information
		"Smokey," aka Sheriff Buford T. Justice (Jackie Gleason), is the prospective father-in-law of unwilling bride Carrie (Sally Field).
		Already in danger of arrest from redneck lawmen like Buford T. Justice, Bandit furthers his chances at a stiff jail term when he offers a ride to Carrie, who hopes to escape her unwanted wedding to Justice's boy.
		Universally panned by critics upon its first release, Smokey and the Bandit reaped close to $50 million at the box office and led to two sequels.

	SMOKEY AND THE BANDIT - SPECIAL EDITION DVD
		One thing is inescapably true: Smokey and the Bandit was not aimed at people like me. Only the most casual, least demanding filmgoer need apply to this good-ol'-boy version of Vanishing Point--people with as much beer in them as possible, ready to laugh at cheap jokes and root for a speed demon.
		Bandit is an impertinent man who likes to speed; Justice is a self-important lawman given to the occasional racial slur.
		Smokey and the Bandit isn't a movie for people who pay attention to artistic niceties--it's as relaxed and unbuttoned as its audience, delivering the straight goods instead of the fancy stuff, thereby freeing you to sit back and have a good time.

	HD DVD Review: Smokey and the Bandit \| High-Def Digest
		One such genuine cinematic highlight was 'Smokey and the Bandit,' a rootin' tootin', utterly ridiculous action spectacle that earned gobs of money, spawned its own little cottage industry of sequels, and cemented the '70s star status of both Burt Reynolds and Sally Field.
		Still, 'Smokey and the Bandit' remains superior to all of the demolition derby knock-offs it spawned (including 'Convoy' and 'Dukes of Hazzard') because it's so good-natured in its single-mindedness.
		Edge enhancement is also far less intrusive than on some other recent Universal HD DVD releases, such as the ultra-edgy 'The Jerk.' So while 'Smokey and the Bandit' certainly won't replace your demo disc of choice, it turns out to be a surprisingly good-looking ride, considering the circumstances.

		It's the Bandit, and the citizens' apprehension is not unfounded.
		Yet the name Bandit is in no great danger of being overlooked, appearing as it does no fewer than eight times on or in the car.
		The Bandit stays flat and stable through winding curves and starts to feel weighty and clumsy only in extremely hard cornering-the legacy of its near-4,000-pound mass, live axle/leaf spring rear end, and design roots in a less sophisticated era.
