Summary: Kevin Sorbo is the man!!
Comment: I'm pleased to see Kevin Sorbo is doing well after his show Hercules and Andromeda ended. I really enjoyed this movie. The bad guys wanted to run a small town, but Sorbo has something quite different in mind. There is a torture scene. Further, there is a rape scene. Be warned, this action flick is extreme. It's not a gore film, nonetheless, it is violent. Sorbo plays his role well. In his future movies, I look foward to him changing his appearance, maybe cutting his hair very short or growing a beard to show some Versatility to his acting skills.
The ability to change the types of roles one plays and the image one has are 2 hallmarks of a great actor. Kevin Sorbo has changed his looks from the Hercules days with a shorter hair cut and a leaner physique.
Now, he can look for roles that will challenge him to show pain and emotional vulnerabilities. Otherwise, he may end up making movies that all seem similar.
This version of Walking Tall is original because it doesn't attempt to copy The Rock's version of Walking Tall.
I give Kevin Sorbo's acting combined with the overall new version of the Walking Tall series a 5 star rating-

Summary: Much better than expected, Kevin Sorbo did well, good story.
Comment: I enjoyed the first Walking tall, Starting the rock in a story of one man's quest to turn around his small hometown that had been overun with crime and drugs. This movie is based in Boone texas, and Kevin sorbo plays the son of the long time county sherrif, who county is having a bunch of trouble with recent crimes and "bad accidents" after his 30 years of relative peace on the job. Finally, after an explosion at one of the local gas sations, the sherrif uncovers something that leads him to suspect something big is going on. Unfortunatly for him, he became invovled in something bigger than him, and payed the ultimate price with his life. Well, His son (Kevin Sorbo) comes back to town to help his mom, and Do something about fixing his town. The movie takes off from there. Good action, Sorbo was a great fit for the role. Decent script, although some of the lines and acting can get cheesy, it decent for most action movies. And this does not let anybody down for action. Check it out, good follow up movie in the series, thankfully not billed as a sequel.

Summary: could've been so much better
Comment: I don't understand why they keep making these silly walking tall movies with little or no regard to Sheriff Buford Pusser, the real and only walking tall (HELLO)!!!!! Why can't someone just remake the REAL TRUE STORY of Sheriff Buford Pusser??????

Summary: Good Movie!
Comment: I was a little dissapointed that there wasn't more action, but this was a really good movie with solid acting by everyone and a good script. I loved the bar fight scene!! Kevin Sorbo was great, as always, and AJ Buckley did a good job as the main villian. I can't wait until Walking Tall 3 comes out!

Summary: Walking Tall - Great Movie
Comment: After a few hiccups with actually recieving my copy of Walking Tall The Payback, i really enjoyed this movie and thought that Kevin Sorbo and the supporting cast did a great job.
Kevin Sorbo is great in any role he plays and this one was no exception. He played the role of Nick Prescott so well. I really loved his character.
AJ Buckely was great bad guy, so much so that I wanted to hit him. He showed a little bit of compassion but not much in one part of the movie.
Jennifer Sipes role was only small but a role that you wont' forget in a hurry, she portrayed Krystal really well and the emotion she showed without having to even say a word.
Have watched this movie many times already and will watch it many times more.
Bring on the next movie.

Kevin Sorbo stars as Nick Prescott in this action-packed sequel to the hit film, Walking Tall, as the son of a small town sheriff who returns to home to discover the place in which he grew up is now overrun with crime, drugs and violence. A group of ruthless criminals is purchasing real estate using strong-arm tactics. With the cooperation of corrupt local county policemen, they have been pilfering gas from local gas stations, leaving a trail of destruction behind. When Nick's father, in an effort to stop the criminals, is ruthlessly killed, Nick enlists the help of an FBI agent in an effort to seek out justice and revenge.
