People who like this film like it very much, but those who don't like it don't seem to feel it. It has no fierce gunfights, drag scenes, or passionate scenes in dialogue with young people. It is completely unlike modern police and gangster movies. I think it’s more like a western movie, and it’s the same in terms of time. In the 1960s, the western movie scene is no longer there. The new police and gangster movies have risen. This movie has the heart of Western movies under the appearance of the gangster movie. The policeman played by Eastwood. Callahan's style is completely western cowboy style, he has his own moral code, and completely ignores the modern legal system, but his style is no longer applicable in modern cities. Another point is that there is no female drama in the film. Similar to the western film, the women are only the object of insults, waiting for the cowboys to save them. Eastwood always likes to play this kind of weird hero cowboy, so he plays well. Director Tang Sigel was born as a b-level film director, so the taste of the film is biased. Whether it is Callahan peeking at women, killer masochistic, Callahan Stadium tortured killer, they are all low-level fun and challenge the audience's viewing habits. I especially like the scene on the stadium.
