The dead pool

Threat advisory: High - High risk of entertaining activities

Movie propaganda

Fame isn't Detective Harry Callahan's (Clint Eastwood) style. He dislikes being grouped with a rock star, a film critic and a TV host, all slain celebrities in a macabre betting pool called The dead pool. Another name just got added: his.

This time Harry's new partner is a karate wiz. Mafia goons sworn to snuff Harry now scramble to protect him. And in the most amazing San Francisco chase since Bullitt, Harry puts pedal to the metal to out race a bomb-carrying, radio-controlled toy car.

It's also a showcase for future stars Jim Carrey, playing an ill-fated heavy metal musician and Liam Neeson as a power-tripping director. For hard-hitting action, dive into this cool pool.

Theatrical report

Ah, a precursor to the psycho, serial killing, star stalker films that so fill the screens of today.

If you haven't developed a fondness for Harry's strong, silent delivery by now, you never will, but The dead pool is the best of his films whatever you may feel yourself. You aren't a critic so your opinion is unimportant. Go ahead, make my day.
