Magnum Force - I'm Afraid You've Misjudged Me 

Nice reference! :)

Or his dog!

Or hos mole...

my mule gets the crazy idea that you're laughing at him.....................

I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughing. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him

Very good point. Never realised this. 👍

But now police are doing this, and completely ignoring the rules and laws in order to just be total assholes and criminals.

Harry followed the law and rules for the most part. He just didn't like the politically correcting of everything by bureaucrats. He made a few mistakes in a couple of the movies, but he still worked within the system and within the law as he stated was his intention. He could still do more good within it.

Even more prescient today

Harry never executed anybody outright, not even Scorpio.

only if he gives us Dirty Harry: Magnum Impact In The Old Folks Home.

So we will just continue to keep whining about the law then. What country has a perfect law?

@@rayromano6249 The thing is that in reality its about much more than just the law. Different countries need different laws so its never perfect. But to solve the deeper problems that leat to violent criminality is mostly outside the field of the criminal law.

Disagree, the only problem is if the vigilantes go out of control and start killing the wrongly accused and even exploiting the innocent, then raining in them in would be difficult and cleaning up would create a huge mess.

@@rayromano6249 We don't need more/better laws. We need more moral people.

Not very. And it’s still almost impossible to sentence a cop, bar doing something so monumentously stupid even their union foresakes them

It seems like in just a few weeks we went from "hard to convict a cop" to "crucify every cop". Gotta judge on a case by case basis. Media has people convinced its a race issue but bad cops affect everyone, not just black people. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-H1toK3ODe9U.html

"Do you have any idea how hard it is to prosecute a cop." This movie has a cop going agains cops who kill people. The unrealistic part would be Harry keeping his job.

The courts work fine, when we can keep your radical left activist "judges" from abusing them.

Silver lady was my favourite of his

Also Kip Niven ( Officer Red Astrachan) who died this year in May

Vegas.. what a great show that was !

The cops were telling the truth too

And RIP David Soul.

KoolCat ! no doubt

Good point. Leather and sunglasses. At night. And the way they speak. Just caught myself; I wrote 'they'. I don't know if it was they or he. Dressed alike and with sunglasses, they all look the same. Which, I imagine, was the goal.

Also his attitude and philosophy is similar to Ra's Al Ghul from Batman Begins

KoolCat ! I just NOW noticed the comparison! Good eye.

KoolCat ! because it's close to the same year more or less their police uniforms didn't change that much during that era in time Magnum Force and Terminater we're not to far apart in the making son.

Yeah, that sound had an eerie feel all its own.

I noticed too. Well-done, kudos to the foley artist. Well-placed, kudos to the director.

That wasn’t the leather jackets is was those tacos they had for lunch

We need another John Milius in Hollywood.

Jay Wilson I loved it! Filled with bad ass black leathers, motorbikes, guns, and great dialogue. I agree with those bad ass black leather cladded cops. Yea.

Didn't he also direct Conan the barbarian? That's also an absolute classic

Shot so well and great sound too. The vigilante cops lines sound even colder the way the sound is recorded.

Love the sound of those old Moto Guzzi Eldorado police bikes.

Thank you... At least someone has an intelligent mind on RU-vid.

Paul Glazier is COOL in this Movie

John Clark david soul.

ReonMagnum I could not agree more. Dirty Harry got tagged with the 'fascist' label by some, and Magnum Force addresses this. I was 8 years old when the first film was released, and 10 when Magnum Force was released. It was just entertainment to me then. Anything more just went over my head. Looking back, I can appreciate these films even more because of the context. Good films, though, with or without the context.

"Facists"?? well Antifa most certainly fits the bill the way it is behaving,,,,,,,

I wonder how Starsky felt about that statement..??

Well, a dozen killers killed means 11 less killers

*Fucking based

@@ML-sc3pt You have a court judgement?

@@coldwynn the courts are corrupt. Antifa and blm thugs burned down our cities last year and prosecutors didn't press charges at all even when people died. Meanwhile basic trespassing charges at the capital have resulted in solitary confinement to this day as well as torture which judges have ignored. As far as I'm concerned the judges are equally criminals for not upholding their oaths

Especially the way the court system is run. They'd insure justice where the DA's and Judge's failed.

He said he just got threatened by the Keystone Kops. lol

True professional .

I would have failed that test!

HD riding quality

I can identify

And David Soul

+Alex Kerr He was even creepier in the made for tv movie In The Line of Duty: The F.B.I. Murders. Especially in the shootout scene. David Soul can play a bad guy very well.

+teufeldritch that was a great film

@teufeldritch, I remember that movie. He and dad from 'Family Ties' were MESMERIZING, cold, and ruthless. That movie is/was so dark and violent, it's a wonder it made it to TV in 1986.

Arthur Bishop Yeah I really liked that one. It was one of those NBC “In the Line of Duty” true life films which I always liked. Btw, Michael Gross (the dad in Family Ties) was not only in the “FBI Murders” but he also played a straight laced & clean shaven FBI agent in another Line of Duty flick (which is just as good) called “Midnight Murders”. Definitely worth checking out.

Alex Kerr Michael Platt fbi murders movie based on real bank robbers David Soul played out the character

In India, the closest we had to these biker cops were the "Encounter Specialists"(policemen who believed that legal system was weak in convicting underworld gangsters). Especially in Mumbai Police

Yeah that was a TV movie called In the line of duty the FBI murders, Soul co starred alongside Michael Gross they were both great in that movie

A Man's got to know his limitations...right Briggs 🤣🤣❤💯

Also in Salems Lot.

@@jldog134That was a great episode and also a cool series of movies on NBC back in the 80’s and 90’s. My favorite was the one with Rod Steiger playing a North Dakota farmer who refuses to pay his taxes and then becomes a fugitive after he kills a US Marshall. Michael Gross played the FBI agent who has to track him down and was really quite good in that role.

Truth be known - after David Soul turned to go up the exit ramp - he actually crashed his motorcycle.

@@bradwilliams7683 THIS PERFORMANCE IS WHY DAVID SOUL BECAME HUTCH ON STARSKY & HUTCH 2YRS LATER

Brilliant comment!!

Kriss Delaney Nah, people have been saying this for every single decade, and in fact for several centuries. Older people - as in the Greatest Generation - considered the 1960's and 70's totally degenerate and disgusting. Nothing was sacred anymore they said. People who had been young in the 1890's considered those the "golden era" where new innovation made life easier and people believed wars would never happen again while the 1920's were just shocking and tasteless with their vulgar styles etc. A Greek playwright working for the Roman emperor Augustus openly told him at a party:"People say that things aren't as they used to be. You know what, they never were." I do however agree that Lalo Schifrin's music is fabulous. We do live in a sad era in which some bombastic hack like Hans Zimmer is considered a "great composer" of movie scores. Everything sounds the same and nothing stands out.

@@jamesshunt5123 Just happens to be true this time. We live in an age of mediocrity.

@@jamesshunt5123 brilliant observation but i beg to differ on one note; those born from the 90s on up agree in greater numbers than ever that the 80s 70s and 60s was the much better era for music and story write for tv and movies.

@@Ladiesandgentlemen121 Nobody wants to pay for writers any more, in just about every medium. Instead, we get scripted "reality" shows... As for movie composers, Basil Poledouris (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basil_Poledouris) and Danny Elfman (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Danny_Elfman) are pretty damn good...

Justin M Shows you what real cops can be like. Not every single one of them are good. There are always a few rotten ones in that group PRETENDING to be good cops. It is just a matter of time if the good bad ass black leather cladded cops can spot the evil black leather cladded cops among them.

Willie Gordon No, you don't.

McBubbleslvl900 yeah you're right

+McBubbleslvl900 You only have that opinion because you are looking at it from the point of view of being diplomatic and reasonable. People like Willie and myself have mentally crossed over a line that separates reasonable from what we think is real justice. As i always say to people laws don't always agree with what is just in a given situation. Remember laws are arbitrary rules created by humans. Justice and morality are not absolutes.

The system was set up under the belief that its better to let a bad guy go free then to imprisonan innocent one. That protects the majority of us who could lose our freedom or lives if the copsget it wrong but it also means that bad guys who know the system, can manipulate it to escape justice.

Well Callahan worked in a city full of liberals and homosexuals and was considered a maverickin the 70's but he was tolerated because he got results dealing with the worst of the worst.These days if you had a cop leaving a pile of bodies and millions of dollars in property damagein his wake, he would be riding a desk and likely run off the Force because the city governmentwouldn't stand for it.

In India, the closest we had to those 3 cops were the encounter specialists (policemen who specialized in killing gangsters in encounters-meaning they engaged gangsters in gunfights and killed them)

Briggs said they were too inexperienced.

Agreed..just SUBLIME

Actually he wanted Harry to join him. He is truly sad Harry rejected them.

hey all wanted Harry to join....but he had morals and a soul

Pin this shit.

He could make the wrong seem right

hahaha right!

Harry would've blown him away on the spot! "Killing McCoy I can take....maybe even offing a civilian here or there....but I have to draw a line SOMEWHERE!"

+Curtis Ostriker Good comment.

+Curtis Ostriker Good comment.

+Curtis Ostriker Yes!!....you're right....very good comment....

+Curtis Ostriker + Lalo Schifrin music, makes for a very atmospheric scene

Well said.The line is very narrow

Too many people rooted for the villains.

+kobzster06 They were dangerous. Big egos.

+Kelly14UK the only thing wrong with them was they ended up killing another cop, and attempted to kill harry, other than that, what they did was justified, those criminals got away with literally murder, all because of the liberal courts, and pantywaist judges.

True, but where does it all end?Kane16802

Kelly14UK as long as humans are around, never, it's just that simple.

That's why we have laws. To stem it. Shame the whole thing is abused by those who rule anyway.Kane16802

"Celestial blackness!" I like the way you phrased that.

Gee I just thought it was cool.

That's David Soul

That's not excuse for killing other people just for vengeance. You're cops, not killers.

😂

Harry goaded Scorpio into trying to kill him, and it was still an even chance because there was a 50/50 shot that maybe Harry's gun was out of bullets after all and Scorpio might have been faster. It wasn't just an execution in cold blood, which is what marks the difference between Harry and that trio of murderers wearing badges.

+nequito718 So true....he was terrific in Salem's Lot.

nequito718 he's good at being a bad guy if you're into drama FBI murders is a good movie for you he's really bad in this movie based on a real story

nequito718 salems lot, classic horror

And a good singer too...

nequito718 he was relatively unknown when cast in Magnum Force but this movie got him noticed for the part of Ken Hutchinson in the tv show Starsky and Hutch. It got also Kip Niven and Robert Ulrich more known to audiences as this was Ulrich’ s first film role. Tim Matheson was already known on tv shows before Magnum Force including the voice of Johnny Quest in 1960s and became popular with his leading role in Animal House as Eric “Otter” Stratton.

Eastwood is an actor, not a martial artist or expert in firearms.

Yeah but he's got a .44, and he can't remember if he fired 6 shots or 5

I was gonna post that lol

Most cops (minions) are content forcing people to follow the decrees of politicians. Most cops are crooked by default since they are part of the theft (taxation) and kidnaping (arrest) of those who resist the decrees of politicians. Those "dirty" cops are different. They are acting like homicidal politicians who do the dirty work themselves instead if hiring goons (cops) to do the dirty work for them. Governments murder more people than any whack job acting alone or with friends ever have. And we let them.

@@johnvanegmond1812 Alright ya hippie. It was a joke.

Yeah, I was never impressed with any of his other work, but he was good here.

I'd say he was awesome in Salem's Lot to

I don't know about immediate, but he was in Starsky and Hutch for several years.

@@Caseytify I said it like that because David did get a prime time TV series just after the movie magnum force and he did carry a python...starsky and hutch

Aaron Spelling saw David Soul in this and was so impressed he wanted him for Starsky and Hutch right away.

None of Clint's movies will be remade -- he's too unique.

It would be interesting to see his son in a remake though.

Can't leave out Robert Ulrich (Vegas, Spencer for Hire, and SWAT) to name a few. Or Tim Matheson (most notably Animal House).

sadly gone now

@@ruleofthespirit I didn't know. Yes, very sad

@@howardcroft3748 4 January this year in London.

@ruleofthespirit There is a documentary here called "He's Starsky, I'm Hutch." You might enjoy it.

Martin Eriksson exactly my first thought. Harry stays alive by being observant, especially with the cute Asian girl, “Sunny” aka Adele Yoshioka. 😉😁

I remember David Soul say that he didn't know how to ride a motorcycle and crashed after he exited after this shot.

I think he knew but since his balls outweigh theirs he ignored them until they spoke up.

@Mark Richardson you seem to be a real joy to be around.

Nice point! I love it!!

Hence why they put a bomb in his mailbox.

@@brendanforester4601 Howerton really doesn't know a thing about Eastwoods Dirty Harry character *you can tell*

The Enforcer is ok but not nearly as good as this one.

I think Harry understands them too. He's not shedding tears for dead criminals. He just understands that sooner or later, vigilantism leads to mob justice, which harms innocent people.

Ar, ar, ar

Definitely That's What Separates Men From The Boys back in the Day 😁😁

I used to drive a '76 Sedan Deville. It was a total boat, but you'd be surprised where you could park it if you had to.

I thought he basically told them "No thanks."

They didn't understand his answer. "you've misjudged me" meant "not only am I not for your cause, but this is going to end quite a bit differently than you believe it will." But they were too arrogant to figure that part out.

Well. Here we are.

Its not hard to imagine why any police forces in the world would allow urban military tactics when you have gangs using ar15s and active. In my country we see more and more rifles in the hands of our cops, because of the type of crimes (aka terrorists). Dont expect them to use flowers, theyre not hired to simply die.

Have you watched it yet? If so, did you like it? Great, perceptive comment.

@@jeremyseaton4898 I haven't but now that you reminded me i will make time for it

Harry wants to kill all the scum and trash too, but he sees the mayhem that can result if these guys have their way and every cop on the force started acting like vigilantes. They don't seem concerned about that prospect at all.

That was Kip Kiven in the scene in the garage next to David Soul he was the fourth motorcycle cop. Tim Matheson’s character Sweet was killed during the shootout scene during the arrest of Palancio.

Robert urhich before "Spencer For Hire" but it was "Vegas" first.

Jason WAlker this was Robert Ulrich’s feature film debut and Magnum Force was made before he was on tv.

I just see Robert Urich from “Spencer for hire” when seeing this. 😂 I’m showing my age.
