Gary Arnold Washington Post 12/21/2015
A talky, static, derivative picture that seems to run on forever. Frank Capra Jr., the producer of Billy Jack Goes to Washington, may be considered out of the running for this year's Honor Thy Father Award. Go to Full Review

would be a perfect title for a parody if Laughlin weren’t so serious in the endeavor Go to Full Review

Peter G Feb 13 Not much action in this one but by far tom's best acting in these films. Billy becomes a senator and gets screwed by other senetors. See more 08/15/2022 The extreme political views of the writer and star get in the way of what could be an interesting premise. The first movie "Born Losers" -- oddly -- ends up being the least worst of the series. See more 08/09/2017 A very different kind of Billy Jack movie, it's basically a remake of Mr Smith Goes To Washington. As a remake, not the hottest. As a later Billy Jack movie, it's more focused than most entries and has a satisfying conclusion. See more 03/03/2015 Tom Laughlin hires Frank Capra's son direct his version of Mr Smith Goes To Washington. Fourth and most tolerable of the series, it probably would have been a nit if it got wide release. It's derivative, but at least it's focused. See more 03/31/2013 Billy Jack fights the big bad nuclear plants this time around, and his audience breathes a sigh a relief that this is Laughlin's final sequel. See more 01/27/2013 I think this was last in the series. See more Read all reviews
