A while back, I had the luck that all the Dirty Harry movies were broadcast in one of my Dutch channels as I was really eager to check this franchise starring Good Old Clint Eastwood. To be honest, there was no good reasons why this last installment should have been any good (As a matter of fact, it was the least successful of the five Dirty Harry films at the box-office) but I thought it was ac... read more

" The Dead Pool is a 1988 American neo-noir vigilante action thriller film directed by Buddy Van Horn, written by Steve Sharon, and starring Clint Eastwood as Inspector "Dirty" Harry Callahan. It is the fifth and final film in the Dirty Harry film series and is set in San Francisco, California. Even though he detests publicity, for once, the tough-as-nails San Francisco Police Department officer, Inspector Dirty Harry, has hit the headlines for a good cause, after putting behind bars an infamo"

"18.5. Blu-ray Uusintakatselu. Viimeinen osa onnistui jo täyttämään roskapotentiaalin. Ei kyllä ihan odotetulla tavalla. Harrykin tappaa omaksi ilokseen, eikä esimiehiä enää kiinnosta. Kunniamaininnankin piti saada. Kuivan ja väsyneen jatko-osan yhdistäminen roskaiseen hassutteluslasheriin on sellaista aivopierua koko matkan, ettei katselusta voi olla nauttimatta. Pienen häpeän kanssa tosin. Nähtävästi niitä elokuvia, jonka huonous tekee siitä paremman. Liam Neesonilla on poni"

"20.1.2019 Seeing Jim Carrey in this kind of movie may seem weird and it is. He is convicing though for the short time period he appears in the film. He plays an actor who is killed during the first minutes of the film. Eastwood as Harry Callahan once again ends up in unrealistically many dangerous situations when he tries to solve the mystery behind a creepy secret contest called Dead Pool."
