A good movie

Posted : 9 years, 11 months ago on 2 May 2014 05:02

Even though I have watched many times the Spaghetti Westerns starring Clint Eastwood when I was a kid with my dad, I discovered his Dirty Harry flicks much later on in my life. Eventually, even though I still prefer his Westerns, I still enjoyed his famous cop features as well. The interesting thing with this franchise is that the sequels were actually pretty decent and this one was not an exception. Indeed, it was the only installment directed by Eastwood himself and it was actually a box-office success becoming the highest-grossing of the Dirty Harry film series. Back then, Eastwood was still credible in this kind of characters and was, of course, a total bad-ass (as a matter of fact, the famous catchphrase "Go ahead, make my day" came from this installment). You could argue that the plot was nothing really amazing or original but I thought it was pretty entertaining and I had a good time watching this flick. An interesting point is that the โ€˜villainโ€™ in this case for once was a woman played by Sondra Locke who was Clint Eastwood longtime girlfriend at the time. To conclude, I thought it was a decent sequel and it is definitely worth a look, especially if you like the genre.
