The Trial of Billy Jack

[FLU-BIRD]

This is just another one of those  idiotic peices of liberal filmatic crap during the 80s and listening to that TOM LUAGHLIN whine after his BILLY JACK GOSE TO WASHINGTON i mean he cant ever get over what a putrid actor he is

Alas, this movie does not hold up well to the test of time and is quite dated in so many ways. But if you were a teenager in 1974, like myself and four of my friends, you would think very differently about it's legacy. It was a powerful statement about a world that we were just beginning to understand. The memory of Kent State, and the spectra of Vietnam were with us back then all the time. Many young people flocked to the local theater to see this movie and spoke about it a great deal. In today's world of 2011, this movie appears to be a campy, self absorbed pile of film trash. I did find the review entertaining and would not recommend this movie to anybody, but in 1974 I would have paid for your ticket.

Ole Tom was a mean looking SOB, but his Kung Fu was laughable by Lee, Van Damm, and Jet standards.  He could barely get that booted foot up there to some rednecks jaw...  But he was Billa by God...
