Review of The Dead Pool (1988) by Michael T — 08 Feb 2012
SUDDEN IMPACT was a "Dirty Harry" movie with just the good parts in it. THE DEAD POOL is a "Dirty Harry" movie with all the good parts left in it and a reasonably thrilling storyline.
For the last time, Eastwood looks convincing in an action roll and, despite the growing popularity of Glocks and SIGs in American law enforcement at the time, Harry packs a massive stainless steel S&W .
44 magnum revolver, the gun god intended this character carry. With Liam Neeson as a movie director, Patricia Clarkson as Harry's adversarial love interest who is a reporter, and Evan C. Kim as Herry's new partner.
