Umberto Lenzi is undoubtedly the king of Italian crime movies, but unfortunately; Syndicate Sadists is not the best examples of his work in this genre. Lenzi's crime flicks tend to be a cut above the rest because he makes films based on stories with a point, and they don't lack direction; but this film feels a bit too wayward to fully fit with the rest of his stuff. The film takes obvious influence from Sergio Leone's landmark western 'A Fistful of Dollars' (which in turn, took influence from Akira Kurosawa's landmark samurai flick Yojimbo), in that it features two warring families and a strong character at the centre. The crime that Lenzi focuses on is kidnapping, and we centre on a character called 'Rambo'. Rambo is dragged into the war between the two families after his brother is killed because of it. Rambo uses his brains and brawn to pit the two families against one another, in the hope of gaining revenge for his brother's death, rescuing a young boy that they've kidnapped, and ultimately letting the two sides destroy one another.
The film's biggest asset is undoubtedly Tomas Milian. Milian was put to great use by Lenzi in almost all of his crime thrillers. The range of characters he has played for Lenzi is immense, and this one is easily one of the coolest. The character is called Rambo, which immediately sprang to mind the popular Sylvester Stallone character - but for once, the Italians actually haven't stolen this name as Syndicate Sadists was released first! As usual, the film is wickedly entertaining, as we get to watch Milian get himself involved in the usual array of car chases, shootouts and brawls. Lenzi has got him riding a motorbike this time round, and every scene featuring it and Milian is a real standout! However, the film often feels like it doesn't really have anywhere to go, and this means that the running time is stretched out more than it should be. Compared to the crime films of other Italian directors, Syndicate Sadists is more than above average; but in relation to Lenzi crime flicks such as Almost Human and The Cynic, The Rat and The Fist - it doesn't stand tall as one of Lenzi's best. Still, if you're looking for ninety minutes of testosterone fuelled mayhem - Syndicate Sadists will suffice!
可惜啊，十周年纪念版竟然全是刀，看的真难受
剧本和皮套真的有在敷衍
感觉要素太多时长太短不好处理，节奏有些突兀 ，情怀还是挺感动的
不刀人会死是吧？不刀人会死是吧？不刀人会死是吧！十年前安库没了，十年后映司没了，有个HE那么难么？！
结局符合小林阿姨会设置的预期，但拍得不好，毛利写的剧本却有些喧宾夺主，明明重点应该聚焦在映司和ankh上，尤其是映司这么做的选择理由才是粉丝会在乎的。
太短了点吧。。。好仓促。。。但真的也是情怀拉满了
三蛋人一起去火烧东映吧
两年前以为结局在时王，结果时王烂了
爱的ooo似乎成为了买玩具的工具
总体上有概念，但细节和承接完全没有，看完是不满足的，刀我可以，但你刀的太草率了吧，一个小时不到就结束。不过，重点重点重点，你结尾的歌曲，不说了，回忆回来了，还是要感谢，起码让我和ooo的故事有了句号。五星，情怀加两星。
10年了啊，十年前我才三四年级，每周一集追出来的感情啊。
神经病啊还不如停在本篇结尾呢
编剧你什么意思？我妈才复活，和我爸见完三面就阴阳两隔了😇三星送给辛苦的秀君和大家。合体皮套还是很美的，只是刚美完两秒就发刀，滚滚滚。
.....？？？？？？？？？？？😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
虽然能在50周年搞了三个大饼之外还能有精力搞出个这个，本来很惊喜的了，但我看完之后我还是想说我看了个寂寞
果然是你映司。 选择了你，对我来说就是赚了！
什么几把玩意，太伤人了这个十周年，出现不如不出现
三星还是看在情怀的份上，剧情也太潦草了吧，基本上什么都没交代清楚

毛利你真的很努力了，写出来的剧本也就这样了，属于是一些先确定好结局然后往一小时里塞，最后不要靠近外传🚬这刀子多是一件美逝
