      jonathan b Tomas Milan plays one of the most detestable characters ever portrayed. He's a filthy, backstabbing, violent, sadistic crook who commits heinous act after heinous act and, somehow, can't be caught. Henry Silva is the determined cop on his tail who is slowly discovering that the only way to catch this man is to go above the law. The film throws you into a world of depravity and seediness but leaves you first-pumping the air. It's brutal and unpleasant but also a fast-paced whirlwind of a ride. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member A nice crime police thriller by Umberto Lenzi. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/23/23 Full Review Audience Member Uno dei più famosi poliziotteschi italiani. Milano sullo sfondo e la polizia che si trova le mani legate e che non può fare giustizia in un mondo dove tutti cercano di fregare il prossimo. In questo film però risalta la figura di Giulio Sacchi (Tomas Milian), psicopatico e vero anti eroe della pellicola. Interessante è la prima scena di inseguimento in macchina, molto ben confezionata grazie ad un montaggio serrato (meglio di molti altri film americani e non ad alto budget). Il resto si lascia vedere con una storia intrisa di sangue che farà la felicità di Tarantino e dei suoi ammiratori. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/29/23 Full Review Audience Member This is Tomas Milian's show all the way. Henry Silva is great as usual, but Milian's over-the-top criminal madman steals the entire show. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Audience Member Tomas Milian is nicely sleazy as a small time hood who wants to hit the bi-time by kidnapping the daughter of a rich man and holding her for ransom. Well worth a rental for fans of Euro-crime and the like. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Audience Member Enjoyably sleazy Umberto Lenzi crime thriller.
