Review of Dirty Harry (1971) by Brandon V — 15 Aug 2010

This film is one of the pioneer theme called classic action film movies. Feature of this film is, the story shows a shallow, predictable, and the portrayal of good vs. evil in great cliche. But a film like this has great power who is able to remove all the lack thereof. Namely, the incredible detail in terms of depiction of character. This recipe makes the character of John McClane (Die Hard), Axel Foley (Beverly Hills Cop), as well as duet of Martin Riggs and Roger Murtaugh (Lethal Weapon) is always squarely in the hearts of the audience.

Look at how the characters in the movie depicted a very detailed, ranging from attitude, manner of speaking, even the memorable dialogue. And in this movie Harry Callahan described as a dedicated cop, but he's wild and always allowing all methods that justice is done, that's why he Called as Dirty Harry. Come on, make my day!
