Review of Thunderbolt and Lightfoot (1974) by Gavin P — 30 Jul 2016
An interesting car chase film that actually turns out to be a bank robber comedy caper! It's not haha-funny, but does have it's moments, thanks mostly to a young charismatic Bridges and his straight-guy partner Eastwood, a preacher that's actually a robber-in-hiding.
There's a lot more tits & ass than I was expecting and the tone is kept amusing with Goody (Lewis), but not so much Red (Kennedy). There's no real motivation for robbing a bank and the ending's a little sour.
Overall, a decent 70s action/comedy, but not amazing.
