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!
「当初拍摄时间不够，一场修桥拍了三回，这次我们时间多了，再也不用一场戏拍三回了！」
不知道为什么有种在螳臂当车的感觉，志愿军吃冻土豆，转场美军吃火鸡热菜的对比难道很荣耀吗？外国的战争片已经拍出了新高度，为什么我们还在用艰苦而又顽固的战争场面刻画来表达精神？
题材很好，武戏太差，音乐想强行煽情，叙事逻辑勉强
剧作上算不上精巧 并且在空间处理上有些故此失彼
拍的太一般了，我军政治建军的灵魂根本看不到。
完美诠释了什么是最可爱的人！
感谢影协点映，
挺好，前2/3很惊喜，文戏武戏都到位
那些喊口号壮行式的高光台词是一把特别好使的神枪，只不过没装子弹。2.5
(伍百里、伍千里、伍万里哈哈哈哈哈这朴素的起名的艺术，突然让我想起来一个小同学叫常有钱、常有权
即使转战大银幕，团队仍然以《万万没想到》时期那种剪辑风格沾沾自喜，很下头。
我们向世界再一次的证明，中国人才是最会讲故事的玩家~
不主流的题材和大胆的立意，还这么有意思，能过审应该还是讨了《驴得水》那样“借古讽今”的巧……话剧味和结局的风格也很像《驴得水》，还好这次不太BE了。总之子墨真是又敢拍又会拍，完全值得五星支持一个！
笑点什么中规中矩吧，不过听影院里很多人还是一直在笑(难道是我笑点太高？)
我们向世界再一次的证明，中国人才是最会讲故事的玩家~
可能因为知道结局吧，全片最难过的居然是开头所有战士排队上火车准备去前线的片段，奇奇怪怪的点。
特别震惊报告老板团队竟然拍出讽刺悬疑剧！有密室逃脱和民国剧本杀的元素，也致敬了《闪灵》和《这个杀手不太冷》用民国背景反讽当代，非常大胆，有勇气也有创意！喜剧人真的都是宝藏人！
看的那一场基本上都是秦霄贤粉丝 有的在屏摄 有几个姑娘结束后说感蟹支持秦霄贤还发了贴着他头像的小礼物 虽然我没领
小村庄夜战那段简直了，一看就是林超贤导演的手笔。炮兵、狙击手、机关枪手，扔手雷、近身肉搏，安排得环环相扣，节奏太好了。易烊千玺的扮相和特写也很精彩，没想到这么豁得出去。最后美军发现冻僵的志愿军尸体那里，虽然读书的时候看过这个情节，但还是被戳到了。
