Memorable Cult Classic Cop Thriller.

A great detective-type thriller that pleases you in ways most cop films play, or even Clint's movies work. You wish for vengeance on the villain too. Even if it means 'circumventing' the law.
Dirty Harry begins a great manly cop-thriller series full of amazing quotes and some cool characters ( when I say that I refer to Callahan and almost no one else.) Clint steals the show, it's obvious. It's always fun to see him at it with these types of roles.
Dirty Harry is a no-bar inspector who won't play by the rules. His judgement towers over his superiors, and most importantly, the law itself. When a mad rooftop sniper named Scorpio makes numerous threats to innocent people, the force gathers the ransom, playing it like Scorpio orders. but if your Harry Callahan, you wouldn't wanna play the creep's little game.
Some cool fight scenes, interesting characters, and best off, leaves you wanting more. Which is why they made more. I'll probably be posting more Clint Eastwood film reviews up. His movies literally 'kick-ass.' I know I don't have much to say, but like a Clint Eastwood film, it's down to the point. It's slick, edgy, and cleans up with a dirty style. Dirty Harry has my attention. Acting is decent, and character development is very good, leaving you seeking for vengeance, even MORE so than this first film. If you like crime films then this is one that starts it off. Be sure to check the rest of the series.
