Review of The Dead Pool (1988) by Johnny S — 08 Jul 2014
Dirty Harry Callahan is back for a fifth series of the Dirty Harry movie.
Harry Callahan (Clint Eastwood) investigates a series of celebrity murders. The one common thread is that all the victims had their names included on a betting pool list, and Harry's name is on the list too. The story's pretty straightforward. The characters, particularly Harry, are the real interest. There is a plenty of action and a particularly interesting bit is a recreation of the famous car chase scene from the action classic Bullitt, except that here the chase involves a radio-controlled corvette model car loaded with dynamite.
