Synopsis
Magnum Force (1973) is a crime thriller with Clint Eastwood you can watch online on iFILM. Inspector Harry Callahan is back on the streets of San Francisco, and bodies are dropping again — except this time the killers carry a badge.
Mobsters who beat the courts are being executed one by one, cleanly and professionally. Harry traces the pattern to a squad of young traffic cops who have decided to be judge and executioner themselves. Eastwood plays Callahan with the same squint and the same .44 Magnum, but the film puts an awkward question to him: with his own methods, how different is he from these vigilantes? Hal Holbrook is his lieutenant, Briggs; David Soul and Tim Matheson lead the suspiciously flawless rookies.
Ted Post directed this second entry in the franchise, with a script by a young John Milius. This is where Harry's line "A man's got to know his limitations" was born. A lean, morally slippery cop picture for anyone who likes their seventies action with a cold edge. Stream Magnum Force online on iFILM.
