Best to Worst Dirty Harry Movies
I grew up watching Dirty Harry movies with Clint Eastwood as a child and the movie I grew up the most was Magnum Force (1973) that was always on TV I love that movie to death. Harry Callahan is a legendary cop. They are miles way better action movies from the 70's than Death Wish movies! I am a fan of Dirty Harry movies and I would say they are MILES way better franchise than horrendous Death Wish garbage movies!

- DirectorTed PostStarsClint EastwoodHal HolbrookMitchell RyanInspector "Dirty" Harry Callahan pursues a conspiracy of vigilante cops, who are not above going beyond the law to kill San Francisco's undesirables.10/10 the greatest action sequel of all time I love it to death! My Favorite "Dirty Harry" movie a cinema masterpiece. I grew up watching this movie as a child. Is my favorite action classic masterpiece from the 70's of all time. You have a vigilante cops killing criminals that court let them go and everyone. These cops killed everyone that was on their way women's, un armed people, cops to cover their tracks. I never seen in any movie like this. Clint Eastwood is excellent as Dirty Harry Callahan. Ted Post directed excellent this movie. They don't make movies like this anymore. "A man's GOT to know his limitations. " Great one liners, no CGI or special effects. Real handguns were used, real bullets. Beautiful shots of the filming locations. Everyone from the cast was awesome. I miss movies like this I really miss them. It is the greatest sequel of all time. I always did enjoy this movie more than the first Dirty Harry film. I have all 5 films on Blu-ray disc and this weekend I re watch them. Once again Magnum Force is my number 1 favorite film it always was.
- DirectorClint EastwoodStarsClint EastwoodSondra LockePat HingleWhen a woman exacts deadly revenge on the aggressors who raped her and her sister ten years earlier, Inspector "Dirty" Harry Callahan is assigned to the case.10/10 My Second Favorite "Dirty Harry" film the finest action movie of the 80's of all time!!!!!! Sudden Impact (1983) - Inspector Harry Callahan (Clint Eastwood) meets Death Wish! That sounds amazing which it is. The only Dirty Harry directed by Clint Eastwood himself, whiteout a question among, the finest pictures of the 80's, if is not for the best Magnum Force, one of my favorite Dirty Harry movies in the franchise ever!!! It is one of my personal favorite action movies of all time. The fourth installment of Dirty Harry series is one of the most astonish best and greatest Eastwood's masterpiece! I don't care what anyone say's I love this movie to death. It has the greatest and the most finest action in the 80's from Clint Eastwood. This movie is even miles way better than The Enforcer! This movie is a bad ass! Harry's line "Go ahead, make my day" is one of the most memorable praise since Dirty Harry (1971). A long to discover that Dirty Harry is Batman! Why can't they make bad ass action movies like this one is? I will always watch this action flick from Clint Eastwood. The Death Wish chapter of the Dirty Harry saga and another high point in the action genre containing an amount of masculine bad ass to make anyone grow their chest hair. Also the 475 Magnum montage had me in stitches. Sudden Impact allowed Harry to interact with someone who shares his mindset of justice. Definitely the darkest of the Dirty Harry movies. In my opinion the best in the series. The rapist got raped by a .44 Auto Mag, and then by a unicorn horn. I saw that one coming in the chase scene at the carousel. Clint Eastwood was Batman back when Batman was sipping' martinis and dancing in Studio 54. The film is absolutely filled with great, classic moments (I counted TEN all-star ones during my last viewing), and they're evenly spaced through the movie. Great acting and a plot worthy of the title character. Great cinematography. What else can I say buy it you will not be disappointed. This has to be one of Eastwood's best movie. Okay they are all good, but this one will make your day!
- DirectorDon SiegelClint EastwoodStarsClint EastwoodAndrew RobinsonHarry GuardinoWhen a man calling himself "the Scorpio Killer" menaces San Francisco, tough-as-nails Police Inspector "Dirty" Harry Callahan is assigned to track down the crazed psychopath.10/10 My third personal favorite film of all time in the "Dirty Harry" series. I love Dirty Harry to death it is MILES way better than "Death Wish" movies. I am a huge Dirty Harry fan of all 5 movies. There is no bad Dirty Harry movie. This movie it is a masterpiece 70's classic film. Without this film we wouldn't had so many cop films, Die Hard, Tango & Cash, Demolition Man, Cobra, Hunter TV Series, Red Heat, Lethal Weapon, RoboCop and many more films. Cobra was based and answer to Dirty Harry. Andrew Robinson and Reni Santoni both reunited together in Cobra. There is a guy in which Harry crosses his path who says his name is Alice. Marion Cobra Cobretti mentions Ingrid that he wish his name would be Alice. Cobra is reference to Dirty Harry a new cop who works on a homicides. Dirty Harry is a masterpiece without this film there wouldn't be any sequels. I have this film on Blu-ray and on DVD in my collection. 10/10
- DirectorBuddy Van HornStarsClint EastwoodLiam NeesonPatricia ClarksonInspector "Dirty" Harry Callahan must stop a sick secret contest to murder various San Francisco celebrities, with himself being one of the targets.10/10 MILES way better than Death Wish V: The Face of Death I hate that movie to death! The Dead Pool is my movie. This movie is so underrated and it is so good. The film is mixed with action, crime and horror. I watch it many times as a kid. The horror in this film is when Serial Killer stabs Samantha Walker's (Patricia Clarkson) cameraman and you see all that blood on the floor that is scary. When the Killer was holding Samantha hostage and he stabbed her in her neck by the end of the film that was really scary to me and I also screamed oh god because that scene felt realistic to me and it is just my opinion not anyone else. The car chase with a toy automobile as a bomb was really scary to me, lucky that never happened in real life. Guns N' Roses also performs the song Welcome to the Jungle for this movie. Jim Carrey has a main scene in here and he has a little to do. I love the 80's so this movie become my second favorite in franchise. I love all Dirty Harry films even the last one. No one of those films is bad. Great opening scene in the beginning of the film and a great song I love to listen to it. This is the last movie in the series. In 2006 there suppose to be vide game with Clint Eastwood reprising his role by borrowing his voice but the video game was canceled I don't know why.
- DirectorJames FargoStarsClint EastwoodTyne DalyHarry GuardinoInspector "Dirty" Harry Callahan reluctantly teams up with rookie Inspector Kate Moore to foil a terrorist organization made up of disgruntled Vietnam veterans.7/10 the third entry of the Dirty Harry series is quite well good movie. In my opinion my least favorite Dirty Harry film and the weakest of all Five "Dirty Harry" movies. Kinda feels like a repeat of the first movie almost the same plot by the finale. In the first Dirty Harry we got Scorpio played by Andy Robinson who kidnappes a school of bus children and demends $200,000 for freeing the hostages. In this movie "The People's Revolutionary Strike Force" or more terrorists kidnaps they mayor and they damend 5,000,000 in ransom money and the city decides to pays them again just like in the first movie. There was no music by Lalo Schifrin in this movie the only movie in the franchise. He was replaced by Jerry Fielding and the music score was weak I prefer Lalo Schifrin music. The reason I love the film was because the finale was set in Alcatraz. I love two sexy female girls: The first girl is Jocelyn Jones as Miki Valley a prostitute who is so gorgeous and sexy babe in the opening scene what a hot babe. The second girl is Samantha Doane as Wanda "Raise the bridge" man on man I would dominate this sex simbol girl Bobby's girlfriend. Bobby Maxwell (DeVeren Bookwalter) uses rocket launcher M72A1 LAW and blow a truck while kidnapping the mayor love the explosion in this movie. I love this movie but it is a big step down from Magnum Force, Dirty Harry, Sudden Impact and The Dead Pool but it is a fun film and I Enjoy it and I have fun watching it. It is a good and an excellent movie. Clint Eastwood is using rocket launcher M72A1 LAW blowing up Maxwell (DeVeren Bookwalter) to pieces in the watch tower. The scene was fantastic and it is my personal favorite scene of the film. Tyne Daly as Inspector Kate Moore did a solid job. She later had her own show Cagney and Lacey and she did fine job playing another cop in her own TV show.
