Editorial Review:
Amazon.com essential video:
Whether or not you can sympathize with its fascistic/vigilante approach to law enforcement, Dirty Harry (directed by star Clint Eastwood's longtime friend and directorial mentor, Don Siegel) is one hell of a cop thriller. The movie makes evocative use of its San Francisco locations as cop Harry Callahan (Eastwood) tracks the elusive "Scorpio killer" who has been terrorizing the city by the Bay. As the psychopath's trail grows hotter, Harry becomes increasingly impatient and intolerant of the frustrating obstacles (departmental red tape, individuals' civil rights) that he feels are keeping him from doing his job. A characteristically taut and tense piece of filmmaking from Siegel (Invasion of the Body Snatchers, The Shootist, Escape from Alcatraz), it also remains a fascinating slice of American pop culture. It was a big hit (followed by four sequels) that obviously reflected--or exploited--the almost obsessive or paranoid fears and frustrations many Americans felt about crime in the streets. At a time when "law and order" was a familiar slogan for political candidates, Harry Callahan may have represented neither, but from his point of view his job was simple: stop criminals. To him that end justified any means he deemed necessary. --Jim Emerson

I recently bought this DVD along with "Bullit" because I wanted to see if my recollections of these two very popular films were accurate. In the case of "Bullit", yes. This movie is actually better than I recall back when I was 17 in 1969. McQueen should have won an Oscar for that performance. "Dirty Harry" is inferior in every way: script, direction, sound, and acting. I had trouble staying with "Dirty Harry" what with all the 70s clichés that kept popping up to spoil it. But "Bullit" was ... Read More

A great story but a barely passible PQ. Lots of dirt on the picture and inconsistant color saturation (from washed out to cartoonish to very good, depending on the scene) I was dissapointed in the video transfer, could have been better.

The cream always rises to the top and the fact that this film is still among many people's favourite detective flicks and from which many scenes and elements have been copied by other flicks over the years shows that this film is a classic to stand the test of time. From the running around the town jumping hoops for a demented villain (see Die Hard 3) to the attempting to rescue a hijacked bus (see Speed) to humorously taking down a high rise jump suicide attempter (see Lethal Weapon)all these ideas ...

Warner Brothers is going to "make the day" of Clint Eastwood fans everywhere on June 3rd when they release all five Dirty Harry films on special edition DVDs with all-new bonus features. With Eastwood in the starring role, Dirty Harry would one of the most influential films of the 1970s. This would usher in an era of gritty crime dramas and would open the door for such films as Shaft and Death Wish. Even John Wayne would put down his cowboy hat and play a Dirty Harry-style cop in McQ. Dirty Harry ... Read More
