Superstar and Academy Award-winner Clint Eastwood ("Unforgiven," "Million Dollar Baby") returns with his pals Orville, Sondra and Clyde the Orangutan in this blockbuster sequel to "Every Which Way but Loose." It's Clint at his best, with more fun, more laughs, and more brawling than ever before. One of 1980's top-grossing films!

Philo decides that he has had enough and plans to retire from fighting, but the Mafia comes along and arranges another fight, which he forced to participate in.

Philo Beddoe, the easygoing truck driver and bare-knuckle brawler, and his 165-pound orangutan pal Clyde get into more mischief in this faster and funnier sequel to Every Which Way but Loose. Clint Eastwood is Philo, hoping to 'retire' from fighting. But a new contender lures him back - and mobsters kidnap Philo's girl (Sondra Locke) to ensure he'll turn up for the showdown. Ruth Gordon as Ma, Geoffrey Lewis as Orville and those hapless motorcycle morons called the Black Widows all return in fine form. Songs by Glen Campbell, Jim Stafford and Snuff Garrett make up a tuneful country score, including an Eastwood/Ray Charles duet on Beers to You. As ever, Clyde steals the show, especially in a courtship scene with the lady orangutan of his dreams. Any Which Way You Can, you'll be entertained.
