An improvement on 'The Enforcer', if still short of 'Dirty Harry' and 'Magnum Force'. Clint Eastwood (also dir.) remains the constant high of these films, as the American rattles off a famous catchphrase in this installment. Sondra Locke is very good behind Eastwood, she's arguably the most standout support cast member from the whole series (thus far) to be honest. A deep storyline coupled with all the usual things you get from this set of films and you have with a suitably entertaining flick. Interested to see how it all wraps up with finale 'The Dead Pool'.

Call Dmrosia in the DA's office. Ask him if coffee is psychic!!

By far the weakest "Dirty Harry"

Hardly ranks as a Dirty Harry film... Now there's the obligatory "Harry just happens upon a crime" scene in the diner. And the 80s zoom in on the catchphrase... Less said about that, the better. But the whole film doesn't really eminate Dirty Harry vibes. It's trying to be something more and it's missing the vibe.

Solid but not the best of the franchise. Still a must-see for fans.
