The Enforcer (1976)
6/10
Good but seemed to be missing something
8 April 2009
I liked The Enforcer, I really did. But something about it made it feel kind of dry and pale compared to the previous Dirty Harry movies.

Maybe it was the acting, there weren't a whole lot of first class actors here really. Clint Eastwood definitely stole the show once again as Dirty Harry Callahan. Harry Guardino returns as Lt. Al Bressler once again, only this time, he doesn't seem to have a whole lot to say. Tyne Daly was good as Inspector Kate Moore, Harry's partner of the movie. John Mitchum returns as Frank DiGiorgio, the sarcastic old buddy of Harry's. Bradford Dillman was alright as Captain McKay, Harry's annoying superior of the movie. DeVeren Bookwalter was not all that great as the villain of the movie, Bobby Maxwell.

The plot elements weren't as good here as other movies. I personally think they built up the villains far too much, but thats my opinion.

A pretty good movie, but not when compared to the first 2 Dirty Harry films.

6/10.
