Apparently, Code of Silence was originally written in the late '70s as the fourth Dirty Harry film.

I'm not sure how many rewrites it went through after that, but I can still kind of imagine Eastwood in the lead role of this film.

I'm George McFly, I'm your density.

The part where Chuck Norris got beaten up and came back to shoot everyone felt like something out of a Clint Eastwood movie.

Eddie talks about as much as Harry. Yeah the ending,( which did go way over the top), did kind of remind me of the Dead Pool some how.🐭
