The fourth Dirty Harry film is a complete embarrassment to memories of the stunning Don Siegel movie that started the franchise. Gratuitous and somehow sleazy, this cop flick finds Eastwood's Harry Callahan searching for a female serial killer (Sondra Locke) who happens to be a vengeful rape victim ridding the world of guys who can't take "no" for an answer. The whole silly Callahan myth--the way he'll just stand in the shadows with his big gun until the bad guys realize they're going to die--almost makes one wonder how Eastwood survived this junk to become an A-list director in his winter years. Best known for the line "Go ahead, make my day." --Tom Keogh

Description

Relentless rogue cop "Dirty Harry" Callahan finds himself chasing a ritualistic killer to a rural Northern California town. When Harry is spinning his wheels, it's his new partner Horace Kind that steers him in the right direction. Together, they race to catch the killer in a head-on collision of good vs. evil.

Whatcha doin', ya pig headed sucka?!!!.......2006-08-23

This was one of my favorite movies from the early 80's. I love most Clint Eastwood movies, especially his Dirty Harry movies. This is probably my 3rd favorite, after Dirty Harry, and The Dead Pool.

This movie is also one of Clint's most savage, and dark Dirty Harry movies.

I highly recommend renting or buying this DVD.

'Harry' Meets A 'Savage' Woman.......2006-04-23

The fourth in the "Dirty Harry" series, this film features one of the most despicable, ugliest, unlikable, profane, disgusting females I have ever seen on film: "Ray Perkins," played by Audrie Neenan. She is the modern nasty low-life version of the 1945 "Detour" character, "Ann Savage."

Her foul mouth and gutter attitude turned me off so much I never watched this film again until I acquired a profanity filter which shut her up....and least some of her! Then I could enjoy the rest of the movie.

Everywhere "Harry Callahan" (Clint Eastwood) goes, violence immediately follows.....within minutes! It happens so often it's almost laughable but it makes for a fast-moving, entertaining film with a satisfying ending as all the scumbag villains are eliminated one-by-one.

This is a very sophomoric film that appeals to our base instincts.....and connects, sad to say. Most of us like to see these dirtballs get it in the end, and who does it better than Dirty Harry?

Go Ahead and get rid of Sondra Locke and make OUR day (forever) Clint.......2006-03-28

(Two-and-half-stars out of four on normal
rating scale) [Really, the rating may seem
a bit harsh, as I do like Dirty Harry
(more even than the real man behind him,
Clint Eastwood, who by the time I typed
in this review, 2006, has long since sold
out to big brother, unfortunately)

Storyline is good and "Make my Day" scene
is one of best ever in Eastwood film, but
stupid subplot of Locke's character and sis'
rape story saps plot. Albert Popwell back for
fourth consecutive D.H. picture, this time as
'Horace', Callahan's partner. Cute bulldog,
too. Dirty Harry movies are either too long
or short. A Pity... Pat Hingle is good too,
until he's "offed' by some of the worst punks
ever to cross Dirty Harry Callahan!

Fourth film of the series. It's ok, but lacking the Dirty Harry style.......2006-03-12

Sudden Impact was released in 1983 and Clint Eastwood is a little grayer and slower in this film. Still has the Dirty Harry charm but it's the 80s and doesn't have that 70s touch like Magnum Fore, Enforcer, and Dirty Harry. Sondra Locke co-stars with him in this one and her characater is lacking and scary? Dirty Harry is tracking down some killers who raped her sister years ago. Very boring plot. I gave it four starts because I like Eastwood.

Go ahead. make my day.......2005-06-22

This was not as good as the original Dirty Harry but Clint Eastwood still did good acting to make it enjoyable. You sometimes get lost in the movie though. Buy this if you really like the Dirty Harry series. God bless you and have a great day.

Five--count 'em, five--chances to wallow in the shoot-first, ask-questions-later ethos of San Francisco cop Harry Callahan, who became a signature character for actor Clint Eastwood. The first one, Dirty Harry, is the best, a Don Siegel film in which Harry flouts rules about police brutality to capture a serial killer. In Magnum Force he tracks rogue cops and utters his "Do you feel lucky, punk?" speech. In The Enforcer he gets a female partner (future Cagney and Lacy star Tyne Daly). Sudden Impact featured him tracking a female serial killer and offered a new catch phrase: "Go ahead. Make my day." And The Dead Pool, aside from offering a smart little chase involving a radio-controlled model car, brought him face to face with Liam Neeson. You can't ask for much more firepower in one box than this. --Marshall Fine

Product Description

"Dirty" Harry Callahan was one of the first screen characters to embody contemporary fears about crime--and the uncompromising response to it that much of the audience would liked to have seen. Clint Eastwood's laconic rogue cop became an instant screen icon; his catchphrases ("Do you feel lucky?", "Make my day") were and still are endlessly quoted, and he even inspired a futuristic comic-strip counterpart in the person of Judge Dredd. Made at the time when the real "Zodiac" serial killer was terrorising San Francisco, the original Dirty Harry struck a frighteningly realistic note in 1971: aside from Eastwood, director Don Siegel's taught, pacey direction, Lalo Schifrin's nervy jazz score and Andrew Robinson's cackling psycopath "Scorpio" all make a strong impact. Such was the film's success that it gave rise to no less than four sequels, none of which are its equal but all of which get by on the charisma of Eastwood's anti-hero, even when he's increasingly trapped by the character's one-dimensional persona. This five-disc box set contains all the "Harry" movies: Dirty Harry (1971); Magnum Force (1973, with David Soul as a vigilante bike cop); The Enforcer (1976, with Tyne "Lacey" Daly as Harry's new and reluctant partner); Sudden Impact (1983, the weakest of the lot costarring Eastwood's then-partner Sondra Locke) and The Dead Pool (1988, a surprisingly upbeat end to the series).
