B-MOVIE CRITIQUE

Dirty Larry

 

PEABODY

First off, this flick could be - no, is! - the lamest excuse for a parody of a Clint Eastwood movie ever. I mean there are no puns or over-exagerations of Dirty Harry-isms, no satirical cop stuff, nothing! Could have been a winner! Wasn't!!

LEWELLYN

I think you are basically right on the money, but I do give credit to the special effects group for being able to have Larry's right hand appear twice the size of his left hand. I mean, how did they do that?

PEABODY

How?! How 'bout, WHY?? What was the point of making him look deformed? Just to be a better fit for the canon of a pistol he toted? Not a parody of Clint, I tell you.

LEWELLYN

I thought that part was cool.

PEABODY

The big hand?

LEWELLYN

No, the big fingers on the big hand. When he pulled the trigger on that heater, people could see it coming from the back row!

PEABODY

But when, in the recesses of his dark automobile while on a night-time stake-out, he chose to pick his nose, he could hardly jam that index finger up into his nostril!

LEWELLYN

Yeah, not well thought out.

PEABODY

How about when, on the few circumstances when Larry did confront a bad guy, he tried to smile broadly when he used the words, "punk" or "ass hole"?

LEWELLYN

Yeah, incongruous stuff.

PEABODY

Yes it was.

LEWELLYN

During the final fight scene, Larry seemed to fly through the air when he jumped around. What was that?!

PEABODY

I think that was supposed to be exaggerating the Eastwood mortality of not being able to leap very well.

LEWELLYN

Well, they completely lost me there.

PEABODY

It was ill-timed. Too silly.

LEWELLYN

So, on the whole I think we agree that this, once again, was deemed a bad movie. By us.

PEABODY

I think that's a big affirmative, good buddy.

LEWELLYN

Good buddy??

PEABODY

CB talk. From the 1970's.

LEWELLYN

Oh.

PEABODY

So, until next time, when we will discuss another obscure film I'll say, so long from Junior Peabody ...

LEWELLYN

... And Joe-Bob Lewellyn.
