Dirty Harry is one of those series I really do love. A cop who believes in putting away the bad guys and letting justice prevail. Those were the days. Smooth lawyers could not save you from Harry when he knew you were guilty. A big gun for a big man because the criminals did not understand anything else. The action moves along and the plot is good. So saddle up and ride with Harry on another great adventure.
The movie had great lines in it and had plenty of action!!

What an excellent, well done movie staring Clint Eastwood as Dirty Harry and a young Tyne Daly. Have not seen this one in years and wanted to add it to my Diry Harry collection. No "High Tec" needed here to do the job (smart phones, laptops, ect...ect..). A great plot....I highly recommend this one!!!!!!
Great movie
