McQ description After turning down the role of Dirty Harry, John Wayne made up for lost time by starring in this pretty-good 1974 police drama. Shot on location in a gritty pre-Microsoft Seattle, McQ finds John Wayne butting heads with fellow cops and local crime elements as he investigates the murder of a fellow cop and friend. Wayne is obviously a bit long-in-tooth to be taking on this kind of role, but the script allows for some decent character development, including Colleen Dewhurst in a brief but memorable role as a washed-up barmaid, and the action sequences by veteran director John Sturges still hold up well. For anyone who cares, a key drug-heist sequence was shot in the hospital that now houses Amazon.com's Seattle headquarters. --Kristian St. Clair |

| ♥♥♥♥♥ | "John Wayne at his best" |
| I enjoyed this immensely! I loved the fact that John Wayne drove a powerful trans am that was black, low to the ground and had an engine that roared. At first it didn't seem like John Wayne, but he captured the role, and made it believable. His character was a maverick of sorts bucking heads with his superiors, (sort of a Dirty Harry type), and had to deal with, not only the punks on the street, but crooked cops, so the story was interesting. You'll get plenty of action, and good drama.
I recommend this film. John |
