Rating: 3/5 -- Not Dirty Harry's best, but entertaining enough
Kalamazoo Gazette

Rating: 3/5 -- The fifth and least of the Dirty Harry movies is still watchable, but lacks the edge of Harry's earlier adventures.

It probably wasn't wise for the filmmakers to end Dirty Harry's reign with Eastwood uttering a post-killing line more suited for Stallone or Schwarzenegger, but from an entertainment standpoint, The Dead Pool doesn't leave one **** outta luck. Full Review

Rating: 4/5 -- Dirty Harry exits with a flourish in the most entertaining entry of the series. Watch for Jim Carrey and Liam Neeson in early roles.

Included in the New York Times 10 Best Films of 1987
New York Times

Rating: 3.5/4 -- The best thing about The Dead Pool is the best thing about almost all of Clint Eastwood's movies: The film is smart, quick, and made with real wit. It's never just a crude action movie, bludgeoning us with violence. Full Review

...A well-crafted miniature....It could hardly be more apt as a parting gesture from a lively, very smart old artist...
