A condemned man schemes to break free from a maximum-security prison.

Audience Member

Small-timer latches himself onto a high profile crime boss in this lighthearted Italian fare. Tony Lo Bianco and Lee Van Cleeff usually offer more but comedy may not their best medium. Does offer a satisfying conclusion, where Lo Bianco returns to his home as anonymous amongst his nobody cronies. Would have preferred a larger role for Edwige Fernech.

Rated 2 out of 5 stars

A wannabe hanger-on becomes a trusted aid to his idol - an Italian crime boss whose organization crumbles while prison. A more fitting title would have been Mean Frank and Annoying Tony as Tony's personality drags down Lee Van Cleef's presence and what could have been a decent film.
