After the drudgery of <I>Sudden Impact</I>, the fourth and worst sequel to <I>Dirty Harry</I>, no one could have expected the fifth to have any signs of life. But <I>The Dead Pool</I> is fairly inspired, even playful--check out a "chase" scene between Clint Eastwood's Harry Callahan character and a remote-controlled toy car wielding a bomb--and it ended the long-running series on an unexpectedly positive note. This time, Callahan investigates a series of murders that appears to be on a "death list," while becoming romantically involved with a television reporter (Patricia Clarkson). Jim Carrey has a small but memorable part as a doped-up rock star, and Liam Neeson is on board, too. Directed by Eastwood surrogate Buddy Van Horn (<I>Any Which Way You Can</I>). <I>--Tom Keogh</I>
Viewer Reviews Well organized DVD, with plenty of extras. Learned quite a bit behind the scenes. Effective box, captures the Dirty Harry feel. You can't go wrong unless you are going to Blue Ray.
