Sometimes you just want to spend your evening hanging out with someone cool. So maybe you hang out with the Fonz in 'Happy Days', or just crank some Tom Petty - or perhaps like me tonight, you opt for Clint Eastwood as 'Dirty Harry' Callahan.
I actually enjoyed 'Magnum Force' more than the original 'Dirty Harry'. With this the longest of all the Dirty Harry films, it truly has a bit of everything.
Classic instantly-quotable bad-ass one-liners? Check.
Attractive 1970s women and romance? Check.
Plane hijacking? Check.
Bombs and explosions? Check.
Lots of shooting? Check.
Controversial murder scenes? Check.
Crazy car and motorcycle chases? Check.
Stunning San Fransisco scenery? Check.
Corrupt cops? Check.
Plot twists? Check.
This film felt right at home in 2019, despite being made all the way back in 1973. Definitely ahead of its time. You can't help but smile when Clint Eastwood delivers killer lines throughout this film. It seems rare to encounter films so satisfying as this nowadays.
"Nothing wrong with shooting as long as the right people get shot! "
I won't be pulling over for any shady-looking motorcycle cops anytime soon.
