Highway patrolman Smokey (amiable Jack Vacek) decides to make some extra cash on the side working as a repo man. Complications ensue after Smokey and his bumbling partner Ed (likable Ed Abrams) discover that the cars they have been repossessing are actually stolen.
Director/co-writer Vacek keeps the simple, yet still enjoyable story hurtling along at a constant zippy pace, maintains a winningly breezy'n'easy lighthearted tone throughout, and stages the stirring and spirited vehicular carnage with rip-roaring aplomb (a set piece involving two police cars and a pick-up truck in a storm drain rates as the definite rousing highlight). Moreover, Vacek and Abrams display an utterly engaging loose and natural chemistry in the lead roles, Patrice Schubert contributes an appealing turn as the sweet and tolerant Jordan, and Heidi Schubert adds plenty of sass and spark as perky greasy spoon waitress Tami. The funky-throbbing score hits the get-down groovy spot. The bright cinematography by Tony Syslo and Ron Sawade provides an attractive sunny look. An entertaining romp.
