Smokey and the Bandit II

Directed by: Hal Needham, 1980

Silly yet very loveable sequel finds Burt Reynolds and gang back for more. Needham again injects his energized sensibilities, and Reynolds and Sally Field keep the sparks flying.

Dom DeLuise is hysterical as a madcap Italien doctor, and was a breath of fresh air into what was looking more and more like tired formula.

DeLuise and Reynolds hit it off instantly, and went on to do The Cannonball Run I+II shortly after.
