    Good Fun

    At a college visit to a war buddy's professor daughter, mercenary Treat Williams finds her brutally beaten. He then poses as a teacher to teach a lesson to the football jocks responsible.

    Action scenes are competently staged, and there's some kicky fun in seeing a group of physically imposing but brain-dead football jocks getting a taste of their own brutal medicine. Uses a tired formula in layering out its conflicts, but Williams is so good as the hero that the 'quiet' scenes come off as necessary and integral as the action ones
