Behind the scenes, stuntmen compete with one another for the title "best in town." A young upstart challenges aging stuntman Hooper's crown as the king, forcing him to deliver one more dangerous stunt that could either kill him or make him a living legend. Reynolds vehicle has moments of humor, and the action scenes are energetically photographed.

Hooper Reviews:

"...The performances in this story of three generations of Hollywood stuntmen are a delight....[The] direction and stunt staging are wonderfully crafted..." -- Hege., Variety

"...Reynolds has made a movie to please fans of all persuasions, and to please them a great deal....There is genine humor and tenderness in [Reynolds's] romantic episodes with Sally Field..." -- Janet Maslin, New York Times

Customer Hooper Reviews DVD




Average Rating: (4 out of 5 stars) 4 stars

4 stars Super "Hooper"
One of Burt Reynolds best films. Reynolds plays Sonny Hooper, the top stuntman in the film business. That is until a young upstart challenges him for the title, by creating a deadly stunt w/ a rocket car amongst filming a diaster movie. Sally Field stars as Reynolds girlfriend, & Brian Keith is her father and Hooper's mentor. The stunt sequences are worth watching (put it this way, when ever there is a documentary about stuntmen, the stunt footage from this film is usually referred to).

Hooper video
DVD $10.29  Top 500
With the release of Robert Altman's M*A*S*H in 1970, a new form of comedy was born, one that would help to forever change the face of cinema. Altman's audacious film reflected the American counterculture's growing distrust of religion and government in the late 1960s and early 1970s, resulting in one of the biggest box office smashes of its time. Introducing the techniques he would employ throughout his storied career--overlapping dialogue, a constantly moving camera with a heavy amount of zooming, and a bold combination of frank subject matter with cynical humor--Altman immediately vaulted himself to Hollywood's upper ranks. Based on the novel by Richard Hooker, M*A*S*H follows a group of Mobile Army Surgical Hospital officers as they perform surgery and pass the time just miles from the front lines of the Korean conflict. Led by sardonic captains "Hawkeye" Pierce (Donald Sutherland) and "Trapper" John McIntyre (Elliott Gould), the film has the feel of an absurd three-ring circus. Other characters include the uptight nurse "Hot Lips" O'Houlihan (Sally Kellerman), the confused Major Frank Burns (Robert Duvall), the troubled Captain "Painless" Waldowski (John Shuck), and the simpleminded Captain "Duke" Forrest (Tom Skerritt). Altman's decision to present his film as a series of loosely connected vignettes rather than a traditionally unfolding narrative perfectly captures the freewheeling spirit so unique to early-'70s cinema.
