Audience Member Django and Psycho victim 2 team up for this Italian piece of trash. Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Audience Member Police captain and DA fight career criminal and corruption within the city; a look at the futility of dealing with organized crime when their influence extends everywhere. Good cast led by Franco Nero and Martin Balsalm. A better print than the one offered in The Grindhouse Collection should be sought out. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Audience Member The police release a prisoner from a mental institute knowing that he will try to kill an organized crime figure. When the prisoner fails, the District Attorney tries to put the pieces of what happened together. Pretty good film. Liked the ending but I find the Italian film industry's habit of dubbing voices baffling. Why would you do that to Franco Nero? Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member A powerful masterpiece, highly recommended and thoroughly impressive. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Audience Member This is a pretty watchable little Euro-crime film that I noticed in a collection of Grindhouse stuff that I've had hanging around for awhile now, and finally decided to give it a peep. An early film in this cycle of Mafia related films, this never got as action oriented as the few other films I've seen within the genre, but it's an okay way to pass and afternoon. Worth a rental. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Audience Member A dynamic, cynical performance from Martin Balsam enlivens an otherwise boring picture about Italian politicos trying to take down the mob. Franco Nero costars as an assistant D.A. whose uprightness is annoying while he's onscreen but the character is so forgettable it's hard to begrudge him that. Apart from a nice scene where Balsam nonchalantly guns down a mafioso, there's very little exploitative about "Confessions of a Police Captain," making it an unusual choice for inclusion on the Grindhouse Experience collection. Then again,the same could be said of most entries in that weird little collection. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Read all reviews
