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!
就,圣诞节就需要一些烂俗的剧情!就这样就挺好!
一开始被各种当下“刻板”设定引起不适,演员们全程照本宣科罢了,后半段剧情还算不错
中规中矩圣诞合家欢 拥抱家人 发现爱情 Luke究极工具人
2.5吧,不难看,也没多好看……换成了LGBT外壳的合家欢套路片……如果要谈不早谈了(明明男二更好)
完全gay版love hard……不过反正圣诞档电影,要啥自行车
一家子腐男腐女为TXL的终身大事操碎了心,最后朋友变老公
至少这部片选对了送给观众们的男二,有异性恋圣诞爱情片的味儿了😏
很简单很甜蜜的故事
美版我可能不会爱你,戏有点平,家庭氛围好棒
放着憨憨健身教练大帅逼不要最后选择认识九年的姐妹?我不李姐。
俩主角完全没chemistry惹。滑雪帅哥好惨……
爱有时需要别人推一把,九年友谊还是变了爱情
太搞笑了
Netflix年末日常圣诞合家欢电影“我说我们是朋友 大家说我们要当恋人 甚至我的约会对象都说我们该是一对”CP粉狂欢就对了 就是男主侧脸仰头实在有点像司徒建国 让我频频出戏
9年挚友终成眷属,撒花!本片全员优秀,氛围温馨,很棒的圣诞电影!
这实在是;清水一点不要紧但也确实没有chemistry啊
加入圣诞Playlist,好笑好暖。能量过剩的一家子,有时候就是得看看能量旺盛人的生活。
每年一部圣诞同性rom-com,情节什么的都不太重要,主要是看脸。今年这对脸比较有优势,打酱油的Luke出场得时候帅得和圣诞树顶的金色闪粉星星一样闪闪发光。
not bad!很适合写了一天作业之后看看,但作为圣诞电影,和love actually有点欺负人,但看看也还行
老套路的圣诞电影了,但过节就想看点无脑开心的。而且片中帅哥好多,两个主角都很cute.三星还行。
