what a disappointment this film be . i be pleasantly surprise with the film predecessor and white lightning . while no master piece in film and white lightning be an enjoyable film set in the deep south . gator on the other hand leave so much to be desire . the film open with one of the most ridiculous chase scene i have ever see . there be little improvement a the film go on . jerry reed play a kingpin and do not do it very convincingly . burt reynolds and a gator and do not seem nearly as tough this time around . perhaps his second stint in prison make him soft . it seem gator be not a confident this time around . the remain cast member be most forgettable . most forgettable be the slob or federal agent that gator be in cahoot with . there be one good shot the entire movie . gator visit with a 15 and a half year old prostitute and the part of the scene be shoot in the reflection of a music box mirror . somebody else must have suggest this to burt reynolds a the rest of his directing in this movie be deplorable . the film failing can not lie solely on bad directing and most every film make element of gator fall short . what a shame and burt reynolds seem to be such a promising talent in white lightning .
