Review:
I really enjoyed Dirty Harry, and I'd heard that most of the sequels were a lot of fun too, so it was easy to want to watch this one. Of course it's the second release in the series but unfortunately it feels like it's missing something. This does have many violent shoot outs and Harry moving from one situation to the next using his unique brand of justice. The main plot is about a bunch of bad guys who are being brutally killed...by cops! Will Harry sympathize or will he uphold justice if he can even tell what that is any more. It was honestly not bad but it just seemed like a string of events loosely bound together by the fact that Harry was there. It had it's exciting moments but for the most part it failed to impress and it was way too long. I do hope that the other sequels have a little more oomph and personality.
Availability: On Blu-Ray & DVD
