“Cooganu0026#39;s Bluff ranks as one of my favorite Eastwood films. Partly because of the time period u0026amp; location which the story takes place. Itu0026#39;s an excellent period piece. Late 1960u0026#39;s New York city in all itu0026#39;s Glory. I live in NYC and itu0026#39;s was nice to see the Pan Am Building in the backdrop. Itu0026#39;s now the Met Life building. The Pan Am building was also the location of the final scene where the helicopter takes off. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe other reason I like this movie is that Eastwood is essentially playing Dirty Harry before Dirty Harry. Coogan is just like Harry Calahan without the 44. magnum. The story is solid but itu0026#39;s the locales and the situations that Coogan finds himself in that sell the movie. Who cares of itu0026#39;s dated? Of course itu0026#39;s dated but thatu0026#39;s part of the experience. Actually most movies made more than 20 years ago (or less) are dated. If you look at it in the context of the time it was made then youu0026#39;ll enjoy it. Ignore the negative reviews and check it out.”
