Not Quite as Good as Its Predecessors
Much like the previous movie this picture essentially begins immediately after "Sheriff Buford Pusser" (Bo Svenson) has been seriously hurt and his wife killed in a deadly ambush by a criminal element there in Tennessee. However, unlike its predecessor, this film focuses less of Buford seeking vengeance and more on his coming to terms with his changing environment afterward. This is especially apparent when it comes to his being able to make ends meet financially as his way of doing business becomes increasing out-of-favor as time goes by. That being said, this film seemed to rely more on tepid drama than the more robust action found in either of the two previous movies and as a result it seemed to be rather dry for the most part. That's not to say that this was a dull film, necessarily, as it certainly has its moments at times. It isn't, however, quite as good as its predecessors and I have rated it accordingly. Average.
