 SMOKEY & THE BANDIT ROCKS! August 26, 2008
I can hardly wait to recieve my SMOKEY & THE BANDIT: PURSUIT PACK DVD, especially since I loved Smokey & The Bandit I and 2 growing up back in the late 1970's and early 1980's.
I would've ordered SMOKEY & THE BANDIT PART III by itself, but for some reason, Universal never released Smokey & The Bandit 3 on DVD alone, unlike the case with Smokey & The Bandit I and Smokey & The Bandit II.
The truth is, even though Smokey & The Bandit wasn't as good as the first 2, especially since Smokey & The Bandit III had no Burt Reynolds or Sally Field, I couldn't help being intrigued watching Smokey & The Bandit Part 3, since the Pontiac Trans-Am that they used for that sequel was the same exact Trans Am that Glen Larson and Universal used for KNIGHT RIDER, which was an '82 Pontiac Trans Am, except you get to see what KITT would've looked like if it hadn't been spruced up to look futuristic in SMOKEY & THE BANDIT III, since the Trans-Am in SMOKEY & THE BANDIT didn't have the front red scanner or the painted over Pontiac logo triangles on the hubcaps, or the fancy dashboard, etc.
So it was almost like watching a carbon copy of KITT, but without all the fancy devices and without all the spruced up features, despite the fact that SMOKEY & THE BANDIT III would've been better if Burt Reynolds and Sally Field would've co-starred in the movie along with the fact that it more than likely would've prevented SMOKEY & THE BANDIT 3 from flopping at the box office in 1983.
Additionally, I also noticed that all 3 SMOKEY & THE BANDIT movies used a different Pontiac Trans Am, since the Trans Am in SMOKEY & THE BANDIT PART 2 was newer and a little more upgraded than the Trans-Am they used in the original, plus the shape, design, and bodystyle of the Trans-Am used in Part 3 was obviously different than it was in the first 2 SMOKEY & THE BANDIT movies.

The quality of this 3 movie DVD was terrible. The first movie froze up near the end even after I attempted to play it in a second player. The 2nd movie didn't play at all and the third one, which played perfectly, was a waste of time.
The original Smokey and the Bandit was true comedy genius and Jackie Gleason's portrayal of Sheriff Buford T. Justice was one of his very best. Burt Reynolds, Sally Field and Jerry Reed were dynamite together and Jerry Reed's "East Bound and Down" song topped a great comedy. Its too bad the 2nd movie didn't play, because I thought this one was nearly as good as the first. The 3rd installment lacked good writing and seemed just plain empty without Burt Reynolds and Sally Field.Smokey and the Bandit: Pursuit Pack
 Laugh it up... August 3, 2008

After having seen Boogie Nights, I couldn't help but remember Burt's earlier fun filled movie, Smokey and the Bandit. I bought this 'cause it had all three "Smokey" movies in it. But only the original, Smokey and the Bandit is worth seeing in my opinion.
Smokey is about a couple of truckers that claim they can haul Coors beer across the country. Of course they encounter problems and what fun they are! One is a Sheriff, played by Jackie Gleason (sheriff Justice)and his son, Junior Justice (Mike Henry). Also staring is Paul Williams. The pursuit is funny and action packed!
In a scene that had me in stiches, Jackie Gleason comes out of the men's room with toilet paper still stuck in his pants. When I first saw this on the big screen, I was with my then fiancee, Chris and his parents. His dad laughed so hard, loud and long we were all embarrassed and were begging him to stop---that's how funny this movie can be. I've seen it many times after that and it still hasn't lost it's punch to me.
Chris, if you're reading this, it's still the funniest movie you've ever taken me to!
Watch this with your favorite brew and laugh your a## off!

I purchased the DVD 'Smokey and the Bandit' brand new, and it came already scratched!! The last 45 minutes are unviewable. I will never again use or recommend Amazon.

The Smokey and the Bandit movies won't appeal to everyone. If you like car chases, CB talk, sometimes crude and non-politically correct humor you can't go wrong with this "Pursuit Pack." At this price, even if you don't like one or both of the sequels it is still a good deal.
