thiago s filme bacana, o roteiro é bacana, gostei de algumas partes do filmes, clint eastwood ainda continua bom com harry, e gostei que teve cenas no filme de nudez, mas não achei legal colocar o vilão como os policiais, colocaram o chefe dele de vilão e tres policiais como os principais vilões e assassinos do filme, mas até que eu recomendo esse filme. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 10/27/24 Full Review CodyZamboni Z My favorite Dirty Harry movie. As we find out that even Dirty Harry has limits on how far he'll go in dishing out justice. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 09/04/24 Full Review Jay H Mildly entertaining, and totally predictable. Harry really isn't "dirty" in this movie, either. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 05/29/24 Full Review Jan V Best Dirty Harry movie by far. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 04/16/24 Full Review Matthew D Clint Eastwood delivers justice to rogue cops with powerful bullets. Director Ted Post's action thriller Magnum Force (1973) keeps Clint Eastwood cool and ready to gun down crooks at a moment's notice. This time, Dirty Harry is feeling conflicted about having to shoot rogue cops taking the law into their own hands, but not for long. Harry rages into full force with fiery shots from his powerful magnum revolver that are electric with each gunshot. The sound design team let the gunshot noises burst loudly, whether it's a revolver or machine gun. Ted Post's direction keeps you engaged as Eastwood investigates and guns down crooks getting away with a crime, even if they are cops this time. The shootouts are so exciting and Magnum Force is nearly as awesome as Dirty Harry. Editor Ferris Webster's sharp cuts keep Magnum Force's pace quick and each action sequence gripping. You are always anticipating Clint firing again. Cinematographer Frank Stanley's smooth camera panning left and right during shootouts is so cool. I love the way he'll get a neat perspective of Harry overlooking bodies or criminals with wild angles. Jack T. Collis' art direction is gritty and raw like John Lamphear's set decoration, stuffing sets with goods in stores and diners. Sass Bedig's explosive special effects and gunshot flares look real and exhilarating. The massive stunt team pulled off fight after fight and shootout after shootout. The pool machine gun massacre is insane. Writers John Milius and Michael Cimino's story is pretty engaging as they continue to think about ethics, justice, and guilt for law officers and murderers. Having Harry's fellow police officers be the violent crooks committing mass murder in the name of vigilante justice is a neat twist on Dirty Harry's rampage. It's fascinating how these movies are all about legal rights versus vigilante justice dealt with a handgun. The action is searing and cool, but you do wonder why Harry should get away with mass murder every time. It makes for an entertaining film for sure. All the firearms details show off Harry's gun knowledge and expertise. Clint Eastwood is fantastic as the cool, clever, and violent Inspector Dirty Harry Callahan. His reserved acting feels mature and subtle, giving Clint a glare of the eyes or a silver-tongued jab at foes with ease. He's as tough as he is funny or trigger happy here. Hal Holbrook is very fun as Harry's foil the good Lieutenant Neil Briggs. David Soul's Officer John Davis, Tim Matheson's Officer Phil Sweet, Kip Niven's Officer Red Astrachan, and Robert Urich's Officer Mike Grimes are great as the supporting cop actors. I loved Christine White's sweet Carol McCoy. I liked her charming scenes with Clint. Composer Lalo Schifrin's killer funky jazz music sets a mad atmosphere for Magnum Force. Lalo's film scores for this series just rule. Makeup artist Joe McKinney makes everyone look rugged and a young Clint even more handsome. Hairstyling from Shirley Dolle gives Eastwood massive 70's hair as usual. I like all of Eastwood's fancy suits to portray Dirty Harry as a man who likes his expensive fashion. In all, Magnum Force is a thrilling 124 minutes of gunshots galore. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/30/23 Full Review Les N Not as good as the original but still great.
