'That doesn't happen in "Breaking Training," because iCs only a four-inning game, played for charity before a large crowd in the Houston Astrodome. rVhat are the Bad News Bears, a Little League team of incompetents, doing in the Dome? After finishing second irf their league in the original 1976 movie, the Bears are invited to represent California in a charity game against the very competent and very obnoxious Texas Little League champs.

lThe game is enjoyable because it contains a couple of surprises and well-edited action that should even entertain youngsters who have spent the summer going to see the Cubs or Sox. vBUT BEFORE THE Bears make it to the Astrodome, thjere is 70 minutes of movie that is half high jinks and half heart-tugging emotion. At least that was the intent. But it tries too hard; you always know too early the emotion the film is trying to sell. As in the original movie, the boyish Bears swear a lot.

The foul language was forced in the original and it's just as forced here. lit may be true many kids swear like the Bears, but in both films the actors appear self-conscious when reading foul-mouthed lingo. I'm surprised Paramount Pictures would want to include any rough language in film, simply from the marketing point-of-view that such Ahmad Abdul Rahlm Erin Blunt Joaa Agllar Jalma O.

Run Chlcagoland The brand There's also time out for a little romancin' as Burt picks up runaway bride Sally Field, who is fleeing Gleason's stupid son.

The same kind of audience that howled every time one of the Bad News Bears said a foul word, yuks it up in "Smokey and the Bandit" every time a police car takes a header into a ditch. THE SCRIPT predictably is short on logic. We never see the clock start on Reynolds' run for the suds. Ahd Reynolds is never made aware that Fields was engaged to Gleason's son. But logic doesn't seem to apply to car crash movies.

The energy of a contemporary road race appears to be as inexhaustible as the energy of a horse race in the Old West. What's fun about "Smokey and the Bandit" is to watch the audience peel out of the parking lot after the-film is over. Rating for "Smokey and the Bandit" at neighborhood theaters: 2 stars.

The black kid repeats a "soul" phrase a half-dozen times, and the fat kid is the butt and belly of many sight gags. WALTER MATTHAU is no longer the team's coach, and Tatum O'Neal is not the star pitcher. Substituting for their mano a mano is an overdrawn relationship the team's long-haired, cigaret-smoking left fielder and his long lost father. Son finds father in Houston, where the Bears arrive without a chaperon or coach.

Pop (William Devane) grudgingly serves as both only to have the kid rebel ana chew him out for running out on the family. The scenes of anger are OK; it's the reconciliation that's cornball.
