      delysid d i love robert duvall movies, this one is criminally underrated at 25%? c'mon folks! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 05/17/20 Full Review Audience Member Not too bad but the racism maybe too strong for some . Duvall is a hard nosed cop who takes on criminal gangs when his partner is killed. Loosely based on Eddie Egan who was of course the basis for Popeye Doyle in The French Connection. This film is a long way from that but if you want to see Duvall ploughing through New York like a bull in a china shop then it passes the time Rated 3 out of 5 stars 11/01/19 Full Review Audience Member Contains one of the stupidest car chases in movie history. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Robert Duvall had a lot of little unheard of 'gems' in the 70s but as a leading man Ive never really considered him a bankable star. That's probably why a lot of his shit has gone into obscurity. Badge 373 is one of those movies that is driven by his great performance that's worth checking out for fans of the actor & not necessarily the general populous. Im sure most film goers will find it boring & offensive to Puerto Ricans. Personally I don't care. The 70s were a much different time & I love films from that era. Suspended from the force Duvall investigates his partners murder which leads him to a $3 million shipment of guns for a revolution. Contains a great bus chase that is almost as good as the one in Walter Hill's 48hrs. If you like dirty gumshoe flix driven by the performance of your leading man then seek this out. If you have the attention span of a star nosed moll don't bother..In fact you probably don't even know who the fuck Robert Duvall is anyways Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Just an average 70s cop flick.If nothing else, Badge 373 is worth watching just to see the high speed chase with Duvall hijacking a bus trying to get away from the Puerto Rican gang thats trying to kill him Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
