- Police Lieutenant Lon McQ investigates the killing of his best friend and uncovers corrupt elements of the police department dealing in confiscated drugs.
- In Seattle, early one morning, two uniformed police officers, and plainclothesman Stan Boyle, are found shot. The two uniformed officers died of their wounds. Boyle's partner, Lt. Lon McQ, is certain local hood Manuel Santiago is behind these killings, especially after a known hit man, employed by Santiago, tries to kill McQ. Defying the orders of his superior, Captain Ed Kosterman, McQ tails Santiago. After confrontations with both Santiago and Kosterman, and despite the sympathy of city councilman Franklin Toms, McQ enlists the help of private detective "Pinky" Farrell, and soon becomes involved in a major narcotics deal - one that blows up in the face of both McQ and Santiago and that leads to the discovery of a stunning secret for McQ.
- "McQ" is John Wayne's attempt to move away from the western genre with which he was most commonly associated (although he had dipped into other genres along the way). Directed by a 63 year old director (John Sturges), and starring a 66 year old movie star, one can't help feeling that the film has a fairly geriatric air about it. "McQ" seems to takes its inspiration from movies like "Bullitt" and "Dirty Harry", which were big hits around that time. In this one, the plot is pretty similar to "Dirty Harry", and the fact that Wayne's main character is named McQ could possibly be an in-joke, intended to liken him to Steve McQueen (McQueen; McQ; get it??), who starred as Bullitt.<br/><br/>Honest, tough Seattle cop Lon McQ (John Wayne) investigates the death of his partner Stan Boyle (William Bryant) and two other police officers. Strangely, McQ's superiors seem reluctant to let him handle the case but handle it he does, in his typical fist-first, diplomacy-later style! McQ suspects that local hood Manny Santiago (Al Lettieri) is responsible for the killings so he ignores orders to leave Santiago alone and starts to tail his quarry. McQ's unorthodox approach so outrages his bosses that he has to hand in his badge, working almost as a vigilante to crack the case. Among those helping him are ex-junkie Myra (Colleen Dewhurst), private eye Pinky Farrow (David Huddleston) and council official Franklin Toms (Clu Gulager). Eventually, McQ discovers that his deceased partner was caught up in some high-level police corruption, selling seized narcotics back to the drug lords on the streets and pocketing sizable amounts of money in the process. That's why McQ's superiors never wanted him on the case in the first place, as they feared their illegal activities might be exposed if a loose-cannon of a cop like McQ ever caught wind of their plot. Angry and betrayed, McQ sets out to bring down the corrupt cops and drug dealers whose greedy operation caused the death of his colleagues.<br/><br/>This is one of Wayne's poorest films, even though it's refreshing to see him in a different sort of movie. For a chance to see him tackling the whole "mean cop" thing in a better film, viewers should seek out "Brannigan" instead. "McQ" has a few moments that are effective, such as an exciting and cleverly edited car chase along a beach, and a claustrophobic action sequence in which McQ is sandwiched in his car between two dump-trucks in a narrow alley way, and almost killed. The calibre of the cast is surprisingly high, too, with such fine supporting actors as Colleen Dewhurst, Al Lettieri, Eddie Albert, Clu Gulager and David Huddleston involved in the mix. Alas, none of them have particularly memorable roles to get their teeth into. In fact, this "unmemorable-ness" extends to the whole film and makes it a turgid, indifferent affair. If you want to see John Wayne in something different from his usual fare, then "McQ" might appeal to you but everyone else will probably come from the film feeling rather disappointed.
- If you don't particularly like John Wayne, then I doubt if this film will change your opinion. But, if you do like his films and want to watch some mindless action, it's not a bad bet at all--though the film is awfully derivative. That's because only a short time before this, the Dirty Harry films debuted and were VERY successful. John Wayne must have been really ticked, as he was first offered the part as Inspector Callahan ("Dirty Harry"). McQ is his attempt to cash in on the genre, though the results were definitely very mixed.<br/><br/>First, let's talk about the bad. The overall tone of the film is pretty dark and depressing. A plot involving stolen drugs and dirty cops was a far cry from the usual John Wayne fare. Plus I was pretty shocked when this newer and "hipper" Wayne gave drugs to Colleen Dewhurst to elicit her assistance AND THEN he slept with her! This just seemed rather gross. Occasionally, the Duke's reasoning abilities seemed a bit "super-human"--such as how did he know what he knew when the film was about to end??!! Also, unlike Dirty Harry and Wayne's next film (BRANNIGAN), there are no great lines from the film such as "you feelin' lucky, punk". Also, the story itself is just okay.<br/><br/>As for the good, there are some wonderful action scenes--ones that a 60-something Wayne couldn't have really done if his life had depended on it! And the final confrontation was really exciting and about what you'd hope for in the film.<br/><br/>By the way, while I only see this as a slightly better than average time-passer, his next film, BRANNIGAN, is a much better film. While not exactly a sequel, he plays a very similar role but the writing, locale and acting is just a whole lot better--and aside from THE SHOOTIST, is probably the best film of the final decade of Wayne's career.
