Billy Jack Goes to Washington (1977) was the last film in the Billy Jack
series. Unlike the other films where the political posturing was kept in check, Tom Laughlin goes full tilt boogie into the subject. In this virtual remake of the classic Mr. Smith Goes to Washington, Billy Jack is
appointed the vacant senatorial seat after receiving a full pardon from the
Governor. Why did they give this man a political platform I'll never know. But they did and he tries to do his best to let the whole nation know that
he's the last and only honest man in Washington D.C.
Why do we watch Billy Jack movies. Most of you will answer because he
kicks butt and takes names. But the latter films focus more on his "acting" and the metaphysical being of one's self. If you watch Billy Jack for these
reasons raise your hand. That's what I thought.
For die-hard Billy Jack fans, others beware!
