Beanbioca As Good As It Gets

Lachlan Coulson This is a gorgeous movie made by a gorgeous spirit.

Ian (Flash Review)This one is a hefty step down the first two Dirty Harry movies, mainly due to drab villains; aside from the blond bimbo. After Harry saves the day while also causing thousands of dollars in damage, he is assigned desk duty. In the meantime, the drab villains concoct a plan to threaten all of San Francisco. Later and back in action, Harry is paired with a female partner who lacks any street experience and the two of them get involved; partner mismatch hijinks ensue. How will Harry manage the threat and his untested partner? Overall, this movie had less of what makes Dirty Harry so great; aside from a couple fun scenes. It borderlined on 70s police sitcom level quality. Let's see if the 4th one recaptures the brash amusement.

slightlymad22 The Enforcer (1976)Plot In A Paragraph: Dirty Harry (Clint) must foil a terrorist organization with the hep of his new rookie female partner (Tyne Daly) With the commercial Success of Magnum Force, it was only a matter of time before we got a third Dirty Harry!! Despite showing a softer side, as he is seen to be grieving over partners deaths, Harry is still the bullheaded hard nosed detective we remember from Magnum Force and Dirty Harry. Tyne Daly does well in the first strong woman role in the franchise. Harry Guardino and John Mitchum return, Albert Popwell turns up playing a different character for a third time in the franchise. It's weird, for some reason I always thought Clint directed this one. James Fargo does a good job of directing duties, the action scenes are well done and it's one of Clint's tightest movies. This is a bit lighter than the other two movies, and runs considerably shorter too. Jerry Fielding replaces Lalo Shifrin in scoring the movie. Once again, as usual, Clint is clearly doing his own stunts, and I believe it's the first time a Clint character uses the F word!! The Enforcer went on to become Clint's biggest commercial hit at that point, grossing $46 million at the domestic box office to end 1976 the ninth highest grossing movie of the year.

Red-Barracuda The Enforcer is the third entry in the 'Dirty Harry' series. This time Harry Callaghan is assigned a female partner to assist him in bringing down a group of hippy terrorists. As such, it operates on one level as an odd couple movie where Eastwood's character has to overcome his inbuilt sexism which tapped into the very topical women's lib movement of the 70's; while on the other hand it also covered subjects like terrorism, damaged Vietnam vets and the Black Panthers. So, it's certainly a film that can't be accused of not covering many hot topics of the mid 70's.This entry in the series is for me, not only a step down from the first two instalments, but also a lesser film than the under-rated fourth film, Sudden Impact (1983). The main issue is that it has a less interesting story with particularly mediocre villains. On paper, these counter-cultural terrorists have a lot of potential but in practice they lack charisma and come across as merely another obstacle for Harry to deal with. I also wasn't especially taken with the battle of the sexes sub-plot, which I found to be pretty predictable and hackneyed stuff, although it most probably had more impact back when it was released. None of this is any fault on the part of Clint Eastwood and Tyne Daly - soon-to-be 'Cagney and Lacey' fame – who both put in good performances. It's more the fault of underwhelming writing more than anything.Still, aside from all this, this is still an enjoyable movie. It's fairly action packed, including a particularly good extended rooftop chase scene which ends up crash landing into a porn shoot! Eastwood also, pleasingly gets to dispatch of a few other criminal reprobates along the way in a number of side scuffles which he gets actively involved in to violent effect. The big finale takes place in Alcatraz (well I guess this San Francisco based series had to end up there eventually) and while this sequence does have some genuine drama with Daly's character being killed, it also includes a very poorly staged demise of the chief bad guy where he ludicrously and wittingly sets himself up for an easy death by bazooka, leaving his captured hostage in an actively safe spot! Again, another example of this film feeling like it wasn't thought through very well. In the final analysis, this one is for me a lesser entry from this series, yet despite this it remains an entertaining enough watch.

SnoopyStyle It's the third Dirty Harry movie. Harry Callahan (Clint Eastwood) is as hard as ever. San Francisco is threatened by a terrorist group called, The People's Revolutionary Strike Force led by Bobby Maxwell (DeVeren Bookwalter). He lures 2 gas workers with a hot girl and kills them for their uniform. They killed Callahan's partner during a heist of military weapons. Callahan is forced to partner with Kate Moore (Tyne Daly) who has no street experience but lots of book smarts. She was promoted for political considerations for being female.It's a workable Dirty Harry movie. He's as inappropriate and violent as ever. Tyne Daly is pre-'Cagney & Lacey'. She does a compelling job as an inexperienced but strong-willed newbie. The thing that bothered me is the group of terrorists. They are part silly stereotypes and part artificial concoction. They don't really instill fear except maybe Maxwell. However he's more of a silly stereotype. I simply don't like the villains. The movie feels inferior to the first two movies.
