Dirty Harry movies from best to worst

I actually thought "Sudden Impact" was the best film after the original. It has all of the signature themes and ideas of later Eastwood-directed films (the effect of violence, the conflict between choosing to seek redemption or revenge, the importance of adapting personal philosophies to accommodate society as a whole). It's also one of the most brutally realistic and gritty of the films and the to offer a complex, fully realized, and empowered female character. For me, "The Dead Pool" was the weakest with its poor acting, unrealistic action scenes, over-the-top one liners, and some of the most shamelessly in your face stereotypes.
