Dirty Harry

When a madman dubbed 'Scorpio' terrorizes San Francisco, hard-nosed cop, Harry Callahan – famous for his take-no-prisoners approach to law enforcement – is tasked with hunting down the psychopath. The story itself is plainly bad and grotesque, but it's also remarkably good, thanks in part to a character created by Clint Eastwood, a policeman who decides to take the law by his hand disregarding any kind of right or procedure.
