"By my count, more than a dozen people are murdered on camera, about half by Miss Locke and most of the others by Mr. Eastwood. This gives them something in common as lovers."

The New York Times

"This is the first entry in the series to have been directed by Eastwood himself, and action is put over with great force, if also with some obviousness."

Variety

"To all those cowboy movies we saw in our youth, all those TV Westerns and cop dramas and war movies, Dirty Harry has brought a great simplification: A big man, a big gun, a bad guy and instant justice."
