A favorite among my guilty pleasures
This one of a handful of films that I can either sit and watch with friends or let play in the background over and over again.
A cast built of (often underrated) character actors play a group of Florida cops learning the ropes of setting up a sting operation while they try to catch the criminials in the act of pawning hot goods. It a good hearted, often hilarious, entertaining bit of popcorn fluff to kill 90 minutes of time. Its a shame its not out on DVD....

Classic late 70's cop movie
I happen to like this movie, despite how few people have seen it. It's about a cop (Deluise) who is soon retiring but he has one last job. He and two partners I believe set up a S.T.I.N.G. operation to catch thieves selling stolen goods. I'm only 20, so I wasnt even born when this movie was made, ...

Basically a Burt Reynolds Film without the Burt Part
It almost seemsas if this movie was originally written with Burt Reynold in mind, but for some reason he couldn't or wouldn't do it.

They certainly rounded up the Usual Reynolds-Film Suspects -- Jerry Reed, Dom deLuise, Alfie Wise, Pat McCormick and others, and the overall humour has exactly that slightly sardonic, semi-detached air that Burt's raised eyebrow and signature cackle/chuckle (so associated with him that it was used as part of an animated studio logo bit on "Smokey & the Bandit") suit so well .

Even without Burt, the cast are an excellent ensemble who play well off each other, delivering the goods quite satisfactorily.

If nothing else, it's definitely an agreeable-enough way to while away an otherwise unfilled hour and a half or so; i don't think this film will fail to entertain, so long as you're not expecting Great Classic Entertainment.

(Look for the then-Mayors of Miami Beach and Miami in cameos -- for a friend who grew up in Miami, they were almost the funniest part of the film. I won't spoil it for you -- check the end credits, if you don't spot them. Also, take a close look at the police cars you see charging through the night in one shot)

When you're Hot you're hot, when you're not you're NOT.
It is simply pretty hard NOT to like Jerry Reed, Dom Deluise and the charming Suzanne Pleshette, but frankly this film is no funnier than your average sitcom and that is not saying much. A forgettable crime caper comedy this film is about a police scheme to break up a crime ring by posing as an outfit that fences stolen goods. I can remember ONE funny scene that still gives me a smile. The key here is ONE. The rest is really just a waste of time.

Hoosier reviewer
Fantastic movie if you want some good, clean comedy. Hilarious plot and excellent mesh of characters. ... Read more
