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!
关于波洛在一战的前情也让人摸不着头脑
主要角色的选角都有些尴尬，倒是配角更出彩。硬塞种族问题，编剧也是力不从心，但是因为Russell brand，我原谅了这部电影😂😂😂
对于一部从小就印象极其深刻知道结局的如雷贯耳悬疑侦探片，还能有这样略微紧张猜测着的观感很不错了，不过也就是3.5星到头，为肯尼思·布拉纳大叔多打一星拉分（目前6.0）。翻了下记录之前的东方快车，我竟然给了5星，为了他的莎翁特色，这部倒不那么明显了。我不明白的是，盖尔·加朵为什么要接这部戏，完全花瓶啊！以及，波洛真有那么一段一战受伤经历和凯瑟琳？倒是我不了解AC原著了？还有，硬塞进去的黑人太难受了！在IMAX银幕下，尼罗河那段景色及神庙还是很震撼的！我想去埃及旅游我想出国玩儿呀！！with又睡了会儿的肉。英皇影城1号IMAX厅19:00场竟然只有8个人。
在伪纪录片中突然出现配乐是一件很出戏的事情，个人感觉为了烘托气氛可以用背景噪声来代替，如《老无所依》里的火车的经过声和气流声，所以很喜欢the empty wake在这里非常巧妙了运用了外面的警报声和逐步逼近的飓风噪音。个人认为最差的是第三个（貌似还是最多人喜欢的😂），廉价的3d游戏视效实在有些无法忍受了，那位特警大哥子弹都停了你为啥还继续抖呢😂
布莱纳爵士的才华永远赶不上他的自恋程度，锤子哥忍辱负重的和女神做了三次再动手，真是委屈了。
③如果说有最大的不足，应该是通篇的浮夸风格，但是这也是和当时，或者说肯尼思·布拉纳本人认知的「浮华时代」相符的，观众还是应该需要包容更多的呈现形式。
我看过尼罗河上的惨案，也看过东方快车，不止一次不止一个版本，在我知晓所有剧情的情况下，肯导还是通过乱七八糟的叙述，奇葩的人物改编，以及完全前言不搭后语的逻辑，让我看不明白他在拍什么。什么风景美，我宁可去看discovery
完全放弃执导的感觉 后半部分连配乐都省了
虽然一直在剪切但还是感觉节奏太慢了。那应该是叙事的问题了
这部电影的眼神都给神奇女侠和古埃及了，案件实在简单，没有任何惊喜，但比《东方列车》好看点。阿加莎的本格故事经典有余，悬念不足，其实适合拍连续剧。
……咱就是说，这片子如果不带上阿婆的名头，大家能打几分？虽然阿婆每次都喜欢乱点鸳鸯谱，但不是这么点的啊！关键这次还改得棒打鸳鸯，我不能接受！波洛缺的是假期不是老伴儿啊！！！我也不懂为啥要专门解释波洛的胡子，人家就喜欢打理自己的胡子不行吗，非得弄个胡子前传，这样狄仁杰是不是也得解释一下为啥自己那么在意自己的胡子了？另，肯总为啥是actor/actress，他除了波洛还演谁了>_< 没看出来啊……
警惕前任，无论爱还是不爱，前任在眼前，身心有危险。
除了硬塞进来的政治正确外毫无新意的翻拍，故事也讲得啰里啰唆毫无吸引力。
（这一部影片是我抱着极高的期待值去看的，因为这一部影片是改编自阿加莎的同名小说） 但回到正题，我只能说这一部影片仅仅只是及格的。首先说优点影片服化道十分精美，完全符合我对华丽风的追求。影片中出现的蒂芙尼黄水晶项链真的很戳我心。影片会出其不意地制造惊吓点。（我真的有被吓到）但除了这些之外，这一部片其实就是典型的密闭空间杀人案，推理过程真的很烂，完全就靠嘴说的。所以这一部片如果有时间无聊的话可以看看，但不必抱有太大期望。
一个严肃的时代缩影，被改拍得像是儿戏，就像在金字塔上放风筝一样毫无意义
大为震惊，这是自2019年烧女图后，我再一次在大银幕见到女同性恋，久违了。可能是因为实在突发奇想且毫无热度所以侥幸存活，成为内地大银幕第一对有名份的女同。
最喜欢机械改造人的故事 这个导演拍的yd邪教也是最印象深刻味道最正的 总体中规中矩不够惊艳 串联感不强
改编缺乏想象力，走心理流派，侦探人格分裂成为最终凶手多好。
但就冲着导演给波洛塞的感情戏私货和自作主张的胡子设定，这电影就足以承受来自全世界粉丝的辱骂。
基本没有存在的必要，除非是作为埃及旅游宣传片。演技都很尴尬，Gal Gadot快成烂片女王了。
