Review of The Dead Pool (1988) by Luke E — 10 Jul 2012
The fifth and final film in the Dirty Harry Series, sees Harry up against a schandal who may be targeting himself. Its the weakest entry in the franchise but enough to satify its fan's hunger. Its got really good drama with the characters, good action, mediocre plot, but a pretty average direction.
some future movie stars like Liam Neeson and Jim Carrey were featured in this film, very early and memerable roles. The other Con is that the film is pretty short and not as explosive as the others, but Its pretty engaging and exciting at times.
Its a shame to see the franchise end this way, then again it was doomed to at some point. Its a pretty watchable action film especially for the franchise. However Eastwood definatly had his Oscar moments into the Nineties and Noughties.
