Genres & Description

Drama Thriller

4.6 / 10

After a Senator suddenly dies after completing (and sealing) an investigation into the nuclear power industry, the remaining Senator and the state Governor must decide on a person who will play along with their shady deals and not cause any problems. They decide on Billy Jack, currently sitting in prison after being sent to jail at the end of his previous film, as they don't expect him to be capable of much, and they think he will attract young voters to the party. Billy is pardoned, released, and nominated, after which he begins his duties. He soon notices that things aren't right, and starts trying to find out just what is going on.

It seems like the film follows the 1938 Mr Smith Goes to Washington themes. I understand that Frank Capra Jr. was on site during the film's production as an adviser. The powers that be hould have allowed this movie to see mass release back in the day. - @Friday, January 12, 2018 2:29 AM

Yes, that states governor would grant a full pardon and then appoint a convicted felon to elected office. Only in the rose colored glasses utopia of a liberal. I'm surprised the script didn't have him beating up all of congress and getting his way. - @Sunday, March 13, 2016 3:57 PM

The problem is that in reality he wouldn't have got three words out before they had him out of there, most likely never to be seen again. That's why it's so important to use the medium of movies to stir up the hearts of the people. R.I.P. Billy Jack. - @Monday, April 6, 2015 1:37 PM

I remember watching these movies when I was kid. Even though I was too young understand everything what the movies were about and too young to know issues like these were real. I admired Billy Jack's intergrity and passion to do right for poeple. Unfortuntely, we don't have any one like this in Washington or anyone in the world like this character. And no other actor could ever play Billy Jack like Tom Laughlin did. - @Thursday, December 27, 2012 7:30 AM

We need an army of Billy Jack's today just to peel off the first layer of corruption. Actually our only hope is for the snake of greed to eat it's own tail leading to a full dollar collapse and the eventual Constitutional rebuilding of America. - @Friday, December 7, 2012 11:17 PM

The people will have no voice until the Electoral College is abolished and term limits for the House and the Senate are in effect. Until then elections are bought and the Congress will be run by special interests. - @Sunday, August 19, 2012 6:36 PM
