Tyne Daly is excellent as Kate Moore the new "Female" partner for our tough-as-hell hero Cop Harry Callahan (Eastwood) as they go up against a hippy terrorist group that have kidnapped the Mayor for a big ransom. That's the basic plot for this fun action Thriller & it's two main stars keep it constantly entertaining. Tyne Daly really is great as the headstrong rookie cop teamed up with Harry. Daly gives such a decent performance & comes accross funny, smart & fearless & is very attractive.
Of course the Cinema legend Eastwood is excellent back as No-nonsense Harry & seems to be having more fun here than the previous more serious films.
Now the opening sequence where a sexy hitchhiker gets two delivery men in their van to give her a lift to a ranch type old house up in the hot & sunny hills of San Francisco where the leader of this terrorist team (Deveran Bookwalter) is waiting to kill them both & does so in a scary cold blooded way is one hell of a fantastic opening moment that feels like a Slasher flick but unfortunately the rest of the movie doesn't match up to the scary suspenseful opening sequence & the villains become pretty cardboard & Cartoonish which is a such a shame after that creepy opening.
The music is excellent as usual & really puts you in that sense of time & place, 1970's.
There's plenty of action packed scenes & a solid cast of actors, one being the underrated Bradford Dillman (Piranha) as Harry's Asshole Captain.
I always love the fact Harry is a real man. A man that isn't afraid to stand up to anyone. If there's corruption then Harry will expose it & he will do what's Right even if it's against his Police Politics.
The Enforcer is filmed beautifully & really captured that sunny but windy San Francisco setting.
This is a fun Action Thriller but with comedy tossed in & isn't afraid to get brutal & bloody but it's a Shame the Terrorist team didn't really make a big impact as the bad guys especially after that suspenseful opening setup but hey the movie is still an enjoyable old school action cop film & Eastwood is great as usual.
