Contentar Best movie of this year hands down!

Senteur As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.

AshUnow This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Suman Roberson It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.

adonis98-743-186503 Dirty Harry is on the trail of vigilante cops who are not above going beyond the law to kill the city's undesirables. Magnum Force is old Cinema at perhaps it's best form with lot's of action, terrific perfomances by Clint Eastwood, Hal Holbrook and the rest of the cast as a whole but also an interesting, thrilling and full of suspense storyline. Dirty Harry was an entertaining and spectacular movie and this sequel still keeps that awesome, badass and greatness of that film and brings on a sequel that i could only describe it as the 'Terminator 2: Judgment Day' of the Series which means? Just as freaking good as the first!!

J Besser "Magnum Force" is almost as good as the original "Dirty Harry". The action never lets up yet manages never to exhaust the viewer. It has a nice little mystery yet it's not a whodunnit. It's a macho movie but it doesn't mock the squares like Clint's also great "Thunderbolt and Lightfoot". Add to the mix a topless Suzanne Somers and you get a fantastic piece of entertainment.

slightlymad22 Magnum Force (1973)Plot In A Paragraph: Dirty Harry is on the trail of vigilante cops who are not above going beyond the law to kill the city's undesirables.How do you follow up one of the best movies of the 70's?? By making a solid sequel like this is the answer!! Magnum Force is not only a worthy sequel, it's a really good movie in general. Hal Holbrook is an actor I've always liked seeing and David Soul is fine too, but this is Clint's movie and he dominates every scene from start to finish. Magnum Force was Clint's biggest hit at this point as it grossed $39 million at the domestic box office to become the 6th highest grossing movie of 1973.

moonspinner55 The second "Dirty Harry" film, directed by Ted Post (a friend of star Clint Eastwood's from their days in television), is full of smash-ups, crash-ups, a pimp killing a prostitute with drain cleaner down her throat, a metal girder catching a crime czar right in the face, and a police inspector (Eastwood's partner) dispatched in a shameful manner--by opening a bobby-trapped mailbox! The plot is inverted from 1971's "Dirty Harry"--this time, the kids are all right and the cops are the bad guys. No matter; Eastwood's Harry Callahan dispatches with the legalities and mows down the crooked rookies just as he did with the hippie sniper from the predecessor. The screenwriters (John Milius and Michael Cimino!) don't even attempt to recognize the irony inherent in the scenario--it's just a plot gimmick to them, another way to go with this character. Still, for fans of completely mindless action fare, one could do worse than "Magnum Force". It has built-in audience approval, which is impossible to shake; one goes into the movie knowing exactly what to expect--and enjoying that all expectations are fully met. Post keeps it moving--thumping, thumping--like an erotic dance for would-be assassins. ** from ****
