W.T. - Final Chapter

"The entire Walking Tall series is a tragic saga of a man almost larger than life, too honest for his own good which eventually lead to his demise.Bo Svenson gives an authoritive and commanding performance of the doomed lawman. Forrest Tucker adds credibility as Buford's father.The movies take you through his triumphs, tragedies, letdowns and then his renewed pursuit of re-election of a county so corrupt, the crooks ruled the county and eventually the department.It is a triumphantly tragic story, and as a former Deputy Sheriff, I recommend the Final Chapter and The entire Walking Tall Series to anyone that can handle reality and the corruption that plagues small county USA."

A real ledgend in his time

"Buford Pusser went through a lot being sheriff overcomming tragaties like his wife's and friend's murders. He saves a verry young boy being beaten by his own father Pusser give the father a lesson in justice. Sadly tragicly killed in a car acident, Bufor Pusser was a true server of justice and a real legend to his county. The whole cast was real great.This is a must see for those who love action films or those who seen "WALKING TALL" parts 1&2, then this is for you to add to complete the saga. Really great action!"

End of the Road

"The second Walking Tall ends with a notice that Sheriff Buford was killed in an auto accident. This third one picks up earlier in the story though. He is still adamant about getting the people who killed his wife and the Mob is still bent on getting the sheriff but Buford has a problem. He has lost his job as sheriff.

The job loss comes about for several reasons. In some cases, Buford is scene as having gone too far outside the legal boundaries. This happens even when his solutions make life easier for everyone, including the perpetrators. The people of his county also seem a bit jaded by continued success. Where they once cheered him, now they are not ready to support him.

The loss of his job means that Buford has to go after justice as a private citizen and he is well on his way to the poorhouse in pursuing his aims. The new sheriff is suspicious of him and is fearful that Buford might become a problem for him. It begins to look like he might have to move away with his business unfinished when he gets a lucky break.

A Hollywood producer learns of his story and wants to make a movie about him. That brings in money and a chance for achieving his goals. The mob leader with a taste for vengeance finally gets his chance and we learn the story of the end of the former Sheriff of McNairy County.

This one is better than the second but not as good as the first.
