The Bandit and his buddy attempt to transport a truckload of contraband across state lines, but a disgruntled Sheriff—the Smokey of the title—and a drove of state troopers have a hard-on for him all the way.
The majority of the film is nothing more than an extended chase scene in which our heroes attempt to overcome complications and outsmart Smokey, but it never gets boring. The chemistry between the confidently smug Burt Reynolds and an adorable Sally Fields is perfect. Throw some country music into the mix and you have a classic on your hands.
