4.0 out of 5 stars Substitute 3: Winner Takes All!!!!!!!, November 24, 2004

This review is from: The Substitute/The Substitute 3: Winner Takes All (DVD)

Treat is back in action, and this time he's after a bunch of steroid injected jocks who are supplied by the mafia. He doesn't have to take on this job, but Williams' character just seems to be an all around do-gooder this time around. He's also on a college campus this time instead of a high school. It's nice to see him away from the gang banger environment and taking on the rich jocks and mafiosos. His war buddie's dying request is that Treat gives his medal to his daughter. Naturally this guy's daughter happens to be a teacher who gets beat up by these jocks, thus giving Williams another opportunity to play teacher. He brings another crew with him along the way, including a black samurai, a rough chick and a heavy guy in a Hawaiian shirt. More of the same classroom fun as Williams beats, shoots, kills and maims the student body. One amusing scene has him lecturing the class on the Vietman war as he's engaged in a fistfight with a huge football player. Another classic has him slitting a guy's throat with a pair of eyeglasses. Ah, yes, Treat Williams is becoming the Charles Bronson of the new millenium. Will he get to the bottom of this barrel of steroid clams? Will he jump in the sack with that cute teacher? Will his students survive his English literature class? Watch Substitute 3 to find out.

Possibly a true dipiction of some schools in the world. Good movie that lets you root for the good guys from the beginning. Holds your attention throughout.Violence when necessary to the story line.

This review is from: The Substitute/The Substitute 3: Winner Takes All (DVD)

In SUBSTITUTE 3, Treat Williams returns as a mercenary on a mission. This time out, he's off to college, posing as a professor to find out who beat up his late friend's daughter. Soon enough, a group of steroid-enhanced football players begin the usual disrespect for Williams' character. Uh-oh! It appears that the mafia is somehow involved, leading to further gunfire, karate, and the enlistment of the heavenly Claudia Christian (TV's BABYLON 5, THE HIDDEN) as a fellow mercenary! The finale is not to be missed!...
