http://urllio.com/r2bdfAfter his court testimony puts a key mafia figure into San Quentin, Inspector Dirty Harry Callahan finds unwanted fame. Now it seems that every hired killer in town is after him. To make it worse, Homicide wants him to go public: Play nice with the press and work with new partner Al Quan. British horror film director Peter Swan, who is in town to film a video for drug-addicted rock star Johnny Squares, plays a game with his crew known as "The Dead Pool", where they each choose a set of 10 celebrities who they think will die before the game ends. The winner of the game is the one with most number of dead celebrities on their list. And the problems start when the people on Peter's list start to die under mysterious circumstances. Following the death of Johnny Squares, DirtyHarry learns of The Dead Pool. And Dirty Harry discovers that his own name is on the list. All fingers seem to point to Peter, mainly since the celebrities that are dying are the same as those on his list. Dirty Harry also has to contend with TV reporter Samantha Walker, who'd just love to do a big story on him, and her name is also on the list. DirtyHarry races to unmask the killer before Dirty Harry himself winds up on the losing end of this game.
Dirty Harry Callahan must stop a sick secret contest to murder local celebrities, which includes himself as a target.
So sad that Dirty Harry went out with such a weak bang...<br/><br/>Love Clint Eastwood, love Harry Callahan, but this final installment just doesn't come close to meeting the standards of the earlier movies. They all have their weak spots but but this one brings new meaning to the word "weak". A few examples: <br/><br/>1. We know Harry can take on all kinds of bad guys with the six bullets in his Magnum, but, cmon, 2 thugs armed with machine guns? How does lying down at the bottom of a glass-walled exterior elevator protect you from machine gun bullets, by the way?<br/><br/>2. Can someone really drive a vehicle in a high-speed chase thru SF and yet still be able to handle the controls of a remote-control toy car? Back in 1988 did they really have RC cars that could go 60 mph while loaded with an explosive device? What kind of battery powered that thing... plutonium? <br/><br/>3. Would the Mafia chief in the prison really fall for Harry's scam... to the point of hiring bodyguards for Harry? Really??<br/><br/>4. Weakest partner ever for Harry... Kim has done some good work in film and TV but he has very little to do here beyond the one obligatory martial arts fight scene. His becoming yet another wounded partner is becoming old,especially where this time we haven't even had a chance to get to know the guy.<br/><br/>5. Harry's bosses griping and complaining about Harry... again, becoming very old and tired. Especially when the actors have no personality to speak of. Bring back Leslie Nielson!<br/><br/>6. Liam Neeson's character... pure stereotype. Very uninteresting. The villain is a total nullity. Really bad writing here. He's not scary, not interesting and not very believable. Compare him to Andrew Robinson in the first DH movie. Wow... talk about contrasts!<br/><br/>7. The sub-theme about the media exploiting the pain of ordinary people to increase ratings and circulation... gee, I doubt this was ground-breaking even back in 1988. The fact that Clarkson is converted to Harry's point of view after getting machine-gunned... well, at least she catches on quick!<br/><br/>8. The final confrontation where Harry harpoons the bad guy... did anyone else LAUGH when Harry comes out with the harpoon gun in his hands? It's a nice twist to have the villain holding Harry's Magnum but really?! Also anyone else notice the ethical problem here: Harry kills a man he knows to be unarmed (out of bullets) and who is offering no resistance. He never did that in the first DH... that was the whole POINT of "Do you feel lucky, Punk?" Even when he shoots Robinson in the football stadium, his INTENT isn't to kill an unarmed man, it's to coerce information about the poor kidnapped girl out of him. Sure, it's extreme but it isn't an execution. IMO this presents a major degradation in Harry's character, perhaps betraying a failure in the writer's appreciation of Callahan's ethical mind-set. If they wanted the villain dead at the end, which makes some sense, why not just have him pull another knife out of his pocket and charge Harry?<br/><br/>9. Filmed like a one-hour TV episode of a show like Cannon or Hawaii 5-0. Actually I've seen better episodes of ordinary TV dramas than this and I'm sure they cost a LOT less to write and to film.<br/><br/>Ultimately, it isn't so much that one could reasonably expect "Dirty Harry 5" to come close to the quality of the first DH. But one could expect a movie of this significance to be far superior to an ordinary TV drama. Right?<br/><br/>Worth watching once, if for no other reason than to appreciate how great the first DH is.
Once again, Clint Eastwood is the iconic character of Inspector "Dirty" Harry Callahan, protecting San Francisco from the threats that just never seem to go away in its midst. While "The Dead Pool" doesn't really contain anything that hasn't been done before in any of the previous Dirty Harry films, except perhaps one particular scene, it is still a fun ride and a good cop movie.<br/><br/>Also in the cast alongside Eastwood is Patricia Clarkson, Jim Carrey, Liam Neeson, Evan C. Kim, and David Hunt. Eastwood also has a new famous quote for this movie, like he has had in all but one other of the Dirty Harry movies. And I find this one to be my personal second-favorite out of them.<br/><br/>"The Dead Pool" contains some fun chase scenes, shootouts, suspense, and a fairly good plot and character development. Once again, this has been done many times before, and it is still done today in other films. But it just comes to show that even an old idea can be reused, it just has to be done the proper way.
An episodic thriller that certainly has its moments, but eventually peters out into dull formula standbys; Eastwood's Harry seems weary of his own sarcastic witticisms, and the ones here won't make anybody's day.
The policemen are watching horror movie clips on TV. The UK VHS lacks the parts from The Pack (A woman sitting in a car is being attacked by dogs) and It's Alive III (The woman in the taxi gives birth to her demon child).
