What was your father Dirty Harry movie?

Al_The_Strange · 02-08-2012, 10:13 AM

I loved "Magnum Force." Something about it seemed really badass.

jawsfan1975 · 02-08-2012, 11:36 AM

Magnum Force is the best, Sudden Impact my least favorite.

Guys, Dirty Harry is the classic

. Magnum Force is the best sequel

, The Dead Pool is the most absurd

, the other two are so boring I couldn't finish either

Belloche · 02-08-2012, 09:59 PM

Dirty Harry slightly edges Magnum Force.

Drewza89 · 02-08-2012, 10:06 PM

For me it was a tough call between The Enforcer and Magnum Force. I ended up choosing The Enforcer because it has the best exchange of dialog:

[Callahan learns he is being transferred to Personnel]
Callahan: Personnel? That's for a**h***s!
Captain: I was in Personnel for ten years.
Callahan: Yeeeeeaah.

Anyways, am I the only one who likes The Dead Pool? It's got some lame moments (the RC car scene), but I thought it was solidly enjoyable. Love the young Jim Carrey cameo.

Dirty Harry (1971) without question.

Dirty Harry and Magnum Force are a close tie in my book, but the Magnum Force title sequence and theme music put MF over the top for me.

arcadeforest · 03-09-2012, 11:39 PM

I would have to go with the original.

2. Sudden Impact
3. Magnum Force
4. The Dead Pool
5. The Enforcer

Went with Dirty Harry but Sudden Impact would be a close second. Not very keen on Dead Pool but love all the others.

Best thing about Dead Pool is Jim Carrey playing Johnny Squares and lip syncing Guns N' Roses' Welcome to the Jungle.

I like The Dead Pool the least. Magnum Force, The Enforcer and Sudden Impact are a toss up for the best in the series (the original is awesome, too).

I think I've only seen Dirty Harry, Magnum Force and The Dead Pool. Need to get around to the other ones at some point soon since they are on HBO Max I believe. But so far, Dirty Harry is my favorite.

Winslow Leach · 12-23-2020, 12:12 AM

The original is a masterpiece. I'm also a big fan of Magnum Force.
