Editorial Review:
Put the pedal to the metal and hang on tight, cause that high-ballin' bandit is rollin' tonight! Henry Fonda shines in his role as worn-out trucker Elegant John who has his 18-wheeler repossessed only months before his retirement. He's determined to do everything he can to make one last big haul before he says goodbye.
The Great Smokey Roadblock Reviews:
Why Was This Ever Made 
2009-12-17 - Stupidest movie I have ever seen. I bought it because it was suggested along with being the same genre as Dennis Weaver in "Duel". No comparison. Duel (Collector's Edition) and Smokey and the Bandit - Special Edition are the only great "truck centered" movies made! Why would Henry Fonda stoop so low as to appear in this film, I watched Fail-safe (Special Edition) last week, that is a great image for Henry Fonda, not an old geezer running from law with a trailer load of hookers as his cargo.
Nothing like Convoy,Smokey and the bandit etc.
2009-03-02 - This movie is only good because of the whole story line except the acting specifically Fonda, Cool cameo by Robert Englund(freddy Krueger). And cool Kwhopper Rig.
The Great Smokey Roadblock 
2009-01-11 - As older movies go, it's a little slow going,but still a great movie to watch. Has a great cast of actors in this one
Classic 70's Road Movie
2008-11-14 - Worth the price. Filmed in my hometown so that's why I bought it. Cheesy movie but good entertainment. Classic 70's. Sad that it's one of Henry Ford's last movies. He's kind of out of place in it.
Not really a trucker movie 
2008-09-20 - Overall, I liked the movie, it was different, and you won't see it on tv anymore. It is sometimes neat to see what poplular actors did before they became famous, in this case freddy kruger. It is part of my trucker movie collection, and I like films from the 70's, so it is a keeper. Not the best, but it was'nt bad, either.
