JRM

"Classic action with one of the best actors to grace Hollywood. 👍🏻"

"I like Clint Eastwood. He’s a great actor. "

Dean John

"The action scenes are expertly staged, but the manipulative script is a set up: the police force is hamstrung by ineptitude and rules, the villain is a despicable monster, and thus, Harry’s vigilante attitude is totally justified . "

"Clint Eastwood takes the law into his own hands and the most awful villain in any movie ever"

"This movie was so different when it first came out. Many movies copied from this one over the years. A detective that was a loner, cleaning up the streets his way! "

Allen Freeman

"Granted, it's a bit dated (made in 1971) but the acting was decent and the story was good. Might not be at the tip-top of your "Best Movies Ever Made" list but it wasn't a stinker. I'd recommend it for a slow night when you're sitting at home by yourself. And very bored."
