A film so fascinatingly liberal it almost seems to exist in a different universe.June 07, 2007
Lame, self indulgent when released in 1971, but even more so now.October 14, 2005
A little heavy-handed with the message, this film still holds onto the brutality of the revenge style established in Born Losers.September 02, 2009
... when peaceful protest is met with guns and brutality, Billy kicks ass as a one-man-army of poetic justice.September 11, 2003
You feel guilty liking this manipulative pulp, but it somehow grabs and holds onto you.March 13, 2006

Billy Jack is the nicest surprise of the year, and my own feeling is that it ranks among the top half-dozen American films so far in 1971.
