Director Needham had graduated from being a stuntman to direct Smokey and the Bandit, but you would have to dig deep to find any great insight into the trade.

Individually, the performances in this story of three generations of Hollywood stuntmen are a delight. And Hal Needham's direction and stunt staging are wonderfully crafted.

One of the least offensive Needham-and-Reynolds efforts, but that isn't saying much.

Any film with Robert Klein as the villain can't be all bad

A highly entertaining tribute to Hollywood stuntmen. The best of the Burt Reynolds-Hal Needham collaborations.

People have been mentioning Burt Reyolds and Clark Gable in the same breath for several years now. With Hooper, Reynolds has finally justified the camparison.

Mr. Reynolds has made a movie to please fans of all persuasions, and to please them a great deal.

Guilty pleasure stunt-guy flick. Worth it for the final stunt of the film.

Director Needham (an ex-stuntman himself) slips effortlessly into a lightweight satire of the movie biz and an almost Hawksian action-comedy of male-group professionalism.

Slight yet likable stuntman comedy.

A lot of people and things are variously punched and smashed, and a good time is had by all.
