Well-observed. And yet....this is quite the understatement. Possibly one of the weirdest and most bizarrely-random events I can think of in any major-studio Eastwood film. Ultra-wacky that there's an exhaust pipe deliberately routed to dump the exhaust directly up through the floorboards into the back seat of the car, and let's not overlook the raccoon in the cage in the front seat. Made even more bizarre for the fact that the right rear wheel rips clean off the hub when the car rolls over, shattering the rear suspension and destroying the axle hubs in the process, and the entire right wheel/tire goes flying into the weeds. Notwithstanding, moments later, however, our dynamic duo is right back in the car, heading down the road in it...That's a serious piece of Hollywood magic, right there.

The first time I watched that scene, with the insane car antics, the crash, and the animals, I was......completely stupefied. The car rollover alone was a major WTF moment. How utterly unique and unforgettable. It all remains one of the most memorable moments in the film for me to this day. While I was ordering this title on 4k uhd a couple weeks back, I was thinking about that scene, chuckling to myself, as I checked out and paid. The infamous Fury Flip-over in 4k UHD....Priceless.
