Mitchum as a booze runner is fun enough, but his singing of the title song is the plus.

THUNDER ROAD stands as spiritual granddaddy to all those '60s and '70s road movies that take the endless American highway as existential parable....None of them ever made death-tripping this much fun.
Uncut
Mitchum carries the movie on his massive shoulders.

The world of moonshine transporters is keyed to Mitchum's fatalist-hobo wryness

Southern drive-in staple Thunder Road is basically The Robert Mitchum Show.

Ozus' World Movie Reviews
Rating: 3/4 --
Bruce Springsteen borrowed its title and Burt Reynolds appropriated its anti-'revenooer' appeal, but just shy of its 60th anniversary, 'Thunder Road' remains very much the property of its actor-as-auteur leading man, Robert Mitchum.

Product Description:
Mitchum's real-life son plays his kid brother in this battle-and-chase crime drama of a Kentucky moonshiner, the Feds who oppose him, and the mobsters who try to take him over. In an atypical casting move, love interest is supplied in the person of chanteuse Keely Smith.
