    I love the Dirty Harry films: plenty of action, interesting story lines, decent acting. And Clint Eastwood. This film is no exception. It was enjoyable to see Liam Neeson and Jim Carrey in their younger years. Patricia Clarkson is always good. I enjoyed this installment as I have all the others. And Clint Eastwood.
  • What about Jim?

    It's not listed because he now goes by Jim, but a "James Carrey" is listed in the credits as the eccentric drug addict, Johnny Squares in this film.

    Back in the day, Roger Ebert called this final Dirty Harry film the best since the original. I'll take it a step further: I think it's the greatest Harry film of all. And he even gets the girl at the end! An awesome end to one of the greatest film series in history...Please just don't let them start remaking these films! I'll have to smother myself!

    Pretty much what you would expect from the 5th of 5. One gets the feeling somebody, and not necessarily Eastwood, was just filling a contractual obligation. High point is seeing a young Jim (James) Carrey playing the role he made famous- before being famous.
  • Dirty Harry goes out with a bang...actually,with a harpoon!!

    This great last chapter in the career of Inspector Harry Callahan can not be missed! You have got to check out the remote controlled car chase...reminiscent of that great Sunday drive scene in "BULLITT", with Steve McQueen! Look for the great Jim Carrey carreyoking to GUNS N' ROSES' Welcome To The Jungle, as a junkie rock star...side splitting stuff!! Eastwood delivers the goods in his last appearance as the San Francisco cop who took care of the bad guys...HIS WAY!! BANG...with that .44 Magnum Smith & Wesson hand-cannon!! Be sure to add this movie to your collection. I got the DIRTY HARRY 5 film collection on Blu-ray DVDs!! I recommend this movie as well as the others!! Thanks for reading. : )
