      Cole Smithey ColeSmithey.com Yeah Babeee. Rated: 4/5 Feb 13, 2008 Full Review Dennis Schwartz Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews A crass, simple-minded and dumb film. Rated: C May 8, 2007 Full Review Kevin Carr 7M Pictures Jack kicks plenty of butt, and the film has some neat little twists and turns to keep things interesting - and an ending the really has some guts.

      Audience Member Loved this movie when I Was 11. Still love it, I'm 65. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/20/23 Full Review Audience Member The Born Losers is so amazing! Billy Jack fights against a horrible motorcycle gang and eventually wins!! :) Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/20/23 Full Review delysid d slow movie story about badass bikers. the ending sucked Rated 3 out of 5 stars 10/09/17 Full Review Audience Member Pretty cool little lone wolf avenger flick. Tom Laughlin is charming as the brave, defiant bad ass who stands up to a group of thugs to protect girls being raped. The ending has more balls than usual for these types of movies. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Audience Member A cult drive-in classic Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Audience Member Before Tom Laughlin hit is big with "Billy Jack" that same character had already made an appearance in this film, "The Born Losers." Though Laughlin lacks his trademark straight brim hat, he's still a wandering stranger who's happy to help others seek violent justice. This film lack the irony of "Billy Jack" where he helps a commune of pacifists with bloody violence, which added to that films entertainment value, but it does a good job of making a nasty biker gang quite despicable, which makes Billy Jack's brutal justice all the more satisfying. Jane Russell plays the mother of one of the biker gang's victims and you also get the underrated exploitation actor/director Jack Starrett as Deputy Fred. "Sense and Sensibility" this film is not, but if you are if you're a fan of grindhouse cinema, this one is essential viewing.
