Eastwood’s flinty-eyed stare and snarling lip are still more than satisfactory.

A solid third installment in the DIRTY HARRY series. Tyne Daly excellent as the flustered but competent female partner. Great final showdown with terrorists on Alcatraz.

For Eastwood fans only, third of five in the Dirty Harry series, but hardening of the arteries began to set in with one.

The best part of the Dirty Harry movies is Harry's signature sarcasm.
