Coogan's Bluff is far from Eastwood's best. It's kind of hoaky and cheesy. Eastwood's character is the same type of character he typically plays; he's a womanizer and he's tough as nails, he likes to fight, and doesn't take orders well. But this particular character makes mistakes. He's a fish out of water in NYC and doesn't do much engraciate himself to the NYC police. The story itself is pretty much by the numbers. Typical stuff happens and no new ground is really traveled here. Pretty predictable. It's alot like that old Tv show McCloud starring Dennis Weaver. If your an Eastwood fan, you're probably going to see this no matter what. But there are better flicks to see - like any of the Dirty Harry flicks. Close this Review
