Along the way, he meets the attractive Kyle (Candice Bergen), has to deal with Chucky (Charles Durning in a blond wig and loud tourist shirts), a mob go-fer, and the albino Moke (Dar Robinson). In order to better zap his enemies, Stick gets a job as chauffeur to rich Palm Beach underworld figure Barry (George Segal) -- and the plot coils and twists from there until the bad guys get their due. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, Rovi

Chuck O'Leary, Fantastica Daily

The unfairly maligned Stick is actually a very good underworld thriller with Burt Reynolds at his absolute coolest.

A pretty awful Elmore Leonard adaptation.

Burt Reynolds tries to direct. He fails miserably. Makes a good drinking game.
