185 ... Dirty Harry

185 ... Dirty Harry

Great cop film that's stood the test of time, Clint Eastwood is brilliant as Dirty Harry.

"I know what you're thinking, punk. You're thinking "did he fire six shots or only five?" Now to tell you the truth I forgot myself in all this excitement. But being this is a .44 Magnum, the most powerful handgun in the world and will blow you head clean off, you've gotta ask yourself a question: "Do I feel lucky?" Well, do ya, punk?"

AFO (A Film Odyssey) rating 8

So good I've watched them all..

Magnum Force ... This first sequel to Dirty Harry is different but just as good as the original in my opinion - "A man's got to know his limitations".  8

Had I seen it?  No!

This film has aged a lot, and it struggled to hold my attention all the way through.

There are some parts of the film that seem familiar, probably because they were original and have been reused in more modern horrors, which is a compliment to this film.

I've probably been spoiled by too many modern horrors?
