Comeuppance Reviews Jack "Soldier" Kelly returns - again - in this third and final entry in the Snake Eater series. This time around, Soldier has to turn in his badge and gun - again - after his rogue ways get him suspended - again. During his forced leave of absence, a woman contacts him about a special job. The parents of Vivian Molison reach out to Soldier to tell them their sad tale. Vivian (Hway) was kidnapped, raped, and used as a sex slave by the evil biker gang the Hell's Furies. She came home, but she's so traumatized she can barely speak. All the Molison parents want is for Soldier to infiltrate the gang and kill them off one by one in a brazen act of revenge. Soldier not-so-reluctantly accepts. He then teams up with sidekick Cowboy (Mustain) and they get to work. Of course, Soldier's girlfriend Hildy (Cook) doesn't approve of his dangerous lifestyle. But Soldier meets his match with the imposing Goose (Bigelow), a tough biker dude with a bladder problem. Will Soldier and Cowboy (they've really reduced heroes down to the main essentials here) escape alive, and thrive, after they strive to destroy the bikers' hive? Find out today! In our humble opinion, this is the best of the Snake Eater series. While some of the wacky humor didn't quite work in the other two outings, here it does. And while that humor didn't always gel with the action elements at work, here it does as well. And at a running time of an even 90 minutes (as opposed to the 109 as advertised which is incorrect) it clocks in right where it should be, in contrast to the sequels which tried your patience at times. Granted, there are some pacing issues here too, but they're reined in. Lamas is charming, as ever, and seems to be having fun. What with some of his clever inventions to off the baddies, he's sort of like a cross between Renegade and MacGyver.Interestingly, there's a scene at a motel where Soldier and Cowboy come under siege from the evil bikers, and they have to bust through the walls of the motel. Such a scene was also seen in that same year's Universal Soldier (1992) - coincidence? Could this be an indication of a future crossover, Universal Soldier Kelly? Time will tell. Actually, time has already told, and the answer appears to be no. In the evil biker department we have Bam Bam Bigelow - oh, excuse us, SCOTT "Bam Bam" Bigelow. Somehow he just doesn't seem like a "Scott". But presumably he added his first name so he could seem more professional. If his movie career had taken off, like for example the way it did for The Rock, would it make sense to see a poster and it simply says "Bam Bam" at the top of it? Regardless, it is fun to watch this cartoonish villain with his silly threats and goofy gruff voice face off against Lamas.Snake Eater III (you gotta love the Roman numerals, it really gives things a touch of class) does indeed give you what you want: an extended barfight, a classic WYC (White Yelling Chief), a rogue cop who has to turn in his badge and gun, and blow-ups and violence by a cop who plays by his own rules. Hence, the Snake Eater series finally comes into its own. Sadly, just as it was warming up, the series ended. Such is life. Apparently this outing was based on a novel, "Rafferty's Rules", but the others in the series weren't (?) but Snake Eater III: His Law is 90's video store action section fun and you'll surely be entertained.For more action insanity, drop by: www.comeuppancereviews.com

Frank Markland Lorenzo Lamas returns in his last go around as Soldier, this time the renegade cop takes on a gang of bikers who have caused trouble for suburban families. This time he's aided by Minor Mustain nicknamed "The Cowboy" This one is easily the weakest of the series, only because there isn't enough of the crazy ridiculousness of parts # 1 and 2. There are some shootouts but these are generally one sided and the bikers provide lame fodder for the vigilante and his Cowboy partner. Although the film starts of blissfully stupid enough, with Lorenzo Lamas pretending to be a robber, while another guy robs some place. (I think it was a store) Of course this then gives way to a moronic story with bikers doing things that only the wimpiest bikers do. Indeed if you want a good biker flick, check out Stone Cold for sheer fun ridiculousness. Snake Eater III:His Law is a sub par effort which is as terrible as what you would come to expect from Lorenzo Lamas.*1/2 out of 4-(Poor)

Joseph P. Ulibas Snake Eater III (1992) was the third in the film series featuring former heart throb Lorenzo Lamas. In this third installment, The Snake Eater is trying to find a missing woman. Along with his sidekick, The Snake Eater stumbles across a mean and nasty biker (pro-wrestler Scott "Bam-Bam" Bigelow). For a novice, Bam-Bam is quite good in his role (he seems to be a ease playing the evil biker). As usual you get to see The Snake Eater in action, busting heads and taking names. The best of the bunch (that's not saying much however). A fun film that the actors don't take very seriously.Recommended for a casual view or two, not a keeper. CB (for wrestling fans) xx

David This one had more and better action then the first 2, and better acting and plot.The bad guys were cool, and I liked the way everything was done in this. There was better characters, not to mention more then in the first. This time, Soldier used a shotgun. Excellent choice for using against a bunch of evil bikers. The special effects seemed ok, and the action sequences were great. this was obviously done on a bigger budget then the first one, and I think they tried harder to make this then they did in the inferior predicessors.I honestly think they should remake the SnakeEater movies.I give SnakeEater III an 8 out of 10
