So boring.

'Coogan’s Bluff' is a terrible film. Not even Clint Eastwood can elevate it. I'm not necessarily quick to call a film sexist, but this is pretty overtly so; especially at the beginning with women at the end of the 'jokes' - whether it be sexual assault, domestic violence or even rape.

Even after all that, you're left with a seriously dull plot. Nothing of note happens for the opening chunk of the film, then when something finally does it fails to build upon it. That's the case for the whole 93 minutes, the only scene I'll remember will be the admittedly good chase scene.

Eastwood is fine in the lead role, if a little cringey. His 'duck out of water' schtick gets tiresome, as do the running jokes. I can't think of any of the other performers who stand out... at a push, Lee J. Cobb perhaps?

Not recommended.

Very slow first half. It's like the writers believed Clint flirting around with women for 40 minutes would be enough entertainment. Second half didn't get any more interesting sadlet. Just added light drama. Their are too many characters just not worth investing in. I'm generally a Clint fan but I'll never watch this again
