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. Full Review
Variety

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. Full Review

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. Full Review

Rating: 3.5/4 -- A highly entertaining tribute to Hollywood stuntmen. The best of the Burt Reynolds-Hal Needham collaborations.

Rating: 3/5 -- Guilty pleasure stunt-guy flick. Worth it for the final stunt of the film.

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

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. Full Review

Description by OLDIES.com:

What's stuntman Sonny Hooper's reaction when he learns the record for a fall is 223 feet? "I'll go 224," he says. Burt Reynolds plays Hooper, at work on The Spy Who Laughed at Danger. His wife (Sally Field) hopes it's his last film. The new stunt team member (Jan-Michael Vincent) prods him to try a risky rocket-car leap. Sonny intends to have the last laugh.
