The second of four sequels to the 1971 classic DIRTY HARRY, THE ENFORCER sees Detective Harry Callahan on the trail of a terrorist organisation headed by renegade Bobby Maxwell.
The organisation are determined to blow the city wide open and when Harry’s long-term partner Frank DiGiorgio (John Mitchum) is killed whilst dealing with a call to an electrical station, Harry seeks revenge on those who have done it. His determination is undermined, however, when a newly graduated female inspector, Kate Moore (Tyne Daly, TV’s CAGNEY AND LACEY) is assigned as his partner.
The trail leads them to black militants, led by Mustapha (Albert Popwell, a character actor who appeared in several of the HARRY films in different guises), but the next target is the Mayor of the city…..
Consistent in keeping with the previous two films, THE ENFORCER remains one of the best sequels in the series – and one of the best cop thrillers ever made.
