Burt Reynolds circa 1977 is cooler than Steve McQueen.

Also, you can get away with shit in 70s flicks you couldn't dream of now.

I saw this years ago. I remember it being alright. I pretty much watched anything with Burt at the helm back then. Hooper, Smokey and the Bandit, Sharkey, Gator all those.

Haven't seen this one in forever. 70s Burt is always good.
