Don Siegel's film in 1971 "Dirty Harry" was partly written as a protest against the then new laws on Miranda, made by the Supreme Court's decision against Arizona in 1966. The film is for the strong San Francisco Super-Cop, Harry Callahan (Clint Eastwood), the trace of the serial killer, knocked out Scorpio (Andrew Robinson) modeled on a killer. Callahan was frustrated because he knew Scorpio was to blame, but used the patronage of "prisoners' rights" to spoil the system and remain free. Kalahan will have to go hostile to bring him to.

Perhaps because of his actuality-probably because of his hard-boiled tone and an unforgettable leading character "Gruff"-"Dirty Harry" was a giant hit, making $ 36 million on a $ 4 million budget. The character was indelible enough to return to more extensions over the yearsEvery time he pushes Callahan into a scenario that will have to go hostile to arrest a dangerous criminal or criminals. It is said that the dirty Harry is more known for the model of the gun he was wearing (0.44 Magnum Smith & Wesson Model 29) than for the crimes he stopped.

The fifth and last film in the series "Dirty Harry" was the "Dead Pool" in 1988, directed by Buddy van Horn, an Eastwood associate in "Any Way You Can" and "Pink Cadillac". "The Dead Pool" could be the stupidest film in the Dirty Harry series, as Callahan was long in the tooth, and the bitterness of the 1970s has long been worn out. The "dead pool" is also striking about the number of stars before the glory of his roles. "The Dead Pool" was only Patricia's second feature film after Brian De Palma's "untouched" Charles Martinett, the most famous of the world as Mario's voiceThere was Kimo as a police rapporteur. Jimim Kerry was playing an unusual rock-Starvala.

Liam Neeson also played a greasy record producer with a poorly advised ponytail. It was the actor's first right action movie.

The story of the "Dead Pool" is fun, and of course it lacks the rhythm of the 1971 Don Siegel original. The film begins when the rock -starvedza -called Nyoni Quarters (Kerry) seems to die of drug overdose. Kalahan researched and revealed that the squares were killed. He will eventually reveal that the "Square" producer, Peter Swan (Liam Neeson), is part of a Macaber betting racket - the dead pool - which bets when celebrities die. Because the squares were killed, it seems that someone in the dead pool was trying to play the system. Neyson is seen wearing leather clothing and playing one of the worst hairstyles of his career.

This was not Neyson's first movie. He was in a film adaptation of "Adjure's Advancement" in 1978 and already had remarkable roles in the epes of the "Excalibur" and "Krull" fantasies. His first leading role came in 1985, when he played the title of character in Colin Greg's "Lamb", a dark Catholic drama about troubled children. He also played a priest in Roland's "Mission" of Offof next year, appeared in the 1987 legal thriller "Suspected", opposite Cher and Dennis Kwaid, and played Randy Spirit in the "High Spirit" of Neil Jordandan the same year. Neyson was already established as a safe presence of the film. "The Dead Pool" was his first appropriate action movie, but because he boasted weapons, as well as an absurd car chase through the streets of San Francisco by a car with a remote control.

The image of Nyson did not have to throw strokes, but he was a little overwhelmed as a very slimy, malicious character. In fact, it was rarely that Nyson played completely villains in his films. He certainly played violent characters a lot, or characters who were morally suspicious, but he was only an antagonist a few times. In addition to the "dead pool", he was a villain in "Batman starts", and, Ah, "Working with Nuts", where he played a wicked raccoon.

It is worth remembering that Nyson was not considered an action hero until "Take" came out in 2008. He was certainly in films with spectacular action scenes before, of course. The fight with the Rob Roy match has been one for centuries, and Neyson starred in the films in the superhero "Darkman" and, as stated, "Batman starts". But most of his roles tend to push him towards romantic waters or tortured characters. He was big and difficult, but rarely took roles that required him to throw a shot or fired a gun. Indeed, his deep, growing voice more often made him take roles in which he was a leader or in a position of authority. Think of the films "Schindler" as well as the films "Chronicles of Narnia".

The image "Action Hero" we now have from Neyson was the development of a late career, all of which springs from Take's success, a film that made over $ 226 million with a $ 25 million budget. It was a highlight of an irresponsible fantasy of a divorced, middle -aged father who gave a moral license to fill all over Europe, killing hundreds of bad to save his kidnapped daughter. The film changed the public perception of Nyson and he began to take more and more hero roles. He was conducting so many action movies in such a small window in time that /film said everyone was considering As a spiritual "taken" extensions. "Unknown", "non-stop" and "gray", for example, are all "taken" of movies as much as I am concerned.

During the last decade of the career of the Nonion, he revealed a healthy blend of prestigious plays, family films and many, very, very, very horrible action films. His next film will be an external slap comedy, Remake of/sequel to the "naked gun", Where did Frank Drebin's son play Leslie Nielsen. After that, he has at least three additional action movies on his plugin. As a young man, Nyson often played spiritual, gentle characters. Now in the early 1970s, Nyson is playing more violent than never.
