A real pile of dung.
As a Buford Pusser "Walking Tall" fan I was certainly disappointed with this TV film of the Tennessee hero. As a movie fan, this ranks as one of the worst veiwing experiences of my life.

Brian Dennehy gives a great portrayal of Buford Pusser.
The real life hero, Buford Pusser has been portrayed by Joe Don Baker, Bo Svenson, and the great Brian Dennehy, who gives the best performance in this wonderful made for TV movie. I highly recommend it, even to those who haven't even heard of Buford Pusser because Dennehy gives a performance that is not to be missed. Plus the action is top notch. A wonderful movie starring the wonderful Brian Dennehy. ... Read more

¡Ay! No se puede comprarla sin subtítulos.
When watching this TV movie, there are blackouts and long pauses between scenes, and the film's heavy hands are so laden with corn that one feels cheated out of the commercials. DA and GCS are dragged through syndicated citcom leftovers in a plot that every viewer knows before watching. Minimal elderly hijinx ensue, and the life's lesson is regurgitated shamelessly. Scott's cliched veediot "mother", a slapstickily inept hitman, and an inexplicable/unexplained mute punk girl provide the gratuitous sideplots. In short, anyone who would like to own this movie should already have taped it of the tele. Lo siento.

Pals--A dream come true or is it?
Ever wish you could stumble across some unclaimed money and use it to your hearts content. It would be a dream come true, or would it?

"Pals" teams Jack Stobbs (George C. Scott)and Art Riddle (Don Ameche)as two life time buddies who lead good, solid, basic lives. That is until they stumble across a brief case full of money that seems to have no owner.

This hilarious comedy captures the hearts of all would be treausre hunters as the pals pursue their dreams with the purchases of simple things they've always wanted. But little purchases soon fail to satisfy Mr. Stobbs as he desires to join the upper class of society.

Fern Strobbs (Sylvia Sidney), Mr. Stobbs aging mother, captures the heart of viewers with her independent wit and that ability of older people to speak their mind while all others be damned. Along the way to improving their life style, Fern creates a few problems of her own, and manages to pick up a young runaway, Certainty Dowd (Susan Rinell). Certainty's colored hair and brash style delight Fern, but irritate Mr. Stobbs creating a delightful, emotionally charged challenge between Mr. Stobbs and Certainty.

As is often the case when money enters the picture, discontentment sets in as Mr. Riddle becomes disillusioned with the new life style. Sadness enters the picture as this lifelong friendship is put to the test.

Of course, all money has an owner somewhere, and this miraculous find belongs to the mob. While Stobb and Riddle pursue their new wealth, the mob stumbles along on a bumbleing struggle to discover who took their money and where they have gone with it.

The delightful surprise ending will leave the most adventurous dreamer wondering if that briefcase, bag or box of money might be hiding around the next curve waiting for discovery.

"Pals" is an ageless adventure all dreamers can enjoy. ... Read more
