Justice sauvage 2 - la revanche

I first watched the Walking Tall movies when I was about 8 years old and I thought both Joe Don Baker and Bo Svenson did a great job, they must have anyway because since watching the movies, I have tried to learn as much about the real Sheriff Buford Pusser as I can. All 3 parts of the movie gave me chills and Buford Pusser was a true hero, I only wish he were alive today and that there were more people like him. I would love to thank him for getting rid of all the crime and being so brave. I am very sorry that his family had to go through such horror and pain. My heart goes out to them. So from a 30 year old fan of Sheriff Pusser and of the 3-part Walking Tall movies and the actors that portrayed him, please do not be negative about these movies and actors, they were only trying to let us know what a wonderful man the real Buford Pusser was and what a great family he had. And to all the young people who may have not heard much about Buford, I suggest you watch the Walking Tall movies and learn more about him.

Following the ambush on his life and the assassination of his wife, Pauline Pusser, Buford(Bo Svenson) continue his pursuit of justice. While he is continuing his pursuit, he runs into another bump in the road, his African-American deputy is killed on duty following the people who want to kill Pusser. Obra is always loyal to him, and he has been a good friend to Buford.

Buford does carry the Big Stick. And the law always get the criminals. The man will never be forgotten.

Big changes in the film, but the fun is always there. It can be used for history lessons. Respect them always.

3 out of 5 stars.

The original "Walking Tall" is a true classic but I actually find "Part 2 Walking Tall" (that's the actual title) a more enjoyable experience. The original is a heartbreaking movie to watch. "Part 2" has its fair share of serious moments but the first movie has a lot more. "Part 2" ends up being more fun. The cast is very good with an excellent Bo Svenson leading the way. The movie opens up with a notarized statement swearing that "Part 2" is true. That's good enough for me. Long Live Sheriff Bufford Pusser. Honorable mention: one of the greatest moments of nudity in movie history (Angel Tompkins).

This was the first "Walking Tall" movie I saw, I think in a $2 movie theater along Hollywood Blvd. , so I didn't have any reference to the first installment done by Joe Don Baker. I remember being shocked at the corrupted system of McNairy County and the brutality of the "redneck gangs". I was also amazed at the fact that one man decided he's not going to let it slide, and went out to do something about it. Courageous ? I thought so - to a point where it sent shivers up my spine.

I think this movie is a great story about American courage to stand up and do something about a system that's only serving its own interest. I was pretty blown away about it, and think this is still one of the best movie of the hero/anti-hero genre, which one might laugh but includes recent movies like the "The Punisher", but even more so because it's a true story. The recent remake starring the "Rock" just doesn't do any justice to the real fire in the story of Buford Pusser.

A "classic" that I'm sure will resurface again in the future.

I wasn't sure if i could watch this without Dad. I made it thru surprisingly without it bothering me too much. This is the 1 i remember most watching with Dad. This was the first time i watched it since his death. Always loved Bo, fine figure of a man. Dad & me always liked/loved Jaeckel primarily because of him being in Grizzly which is a 11 star film. Luke Askew is funny on here. Always loved him. When Pusser tears Jaeckel's car apart i remember Dad laughing, loving every minute of it. Good memories. Its not the same without him but i do love these movies. Wish i had watched them more when he was alive. Gonna be a sad day when Bo dies too.
