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!
所有感动的点，都来自音乐剧而不是电影😥还是看音乐剧吧
5年前在百老汇看到原班人马演的DEH
（确实是几乎每个角色都要到学校走廊唱一次……
导演是想做个善人的，比如让Alana有了人情味，比如让Connor真的留下了痕迹，然而成果不对味。就算演技唱功都是很好的，但小本的状态的确是老成得不像高中生了。Connor的表现也欠火候，他的长相和气质都太像那种笑起来有点小坏的典型美高popular guy，前两幕戏也没有把他阴沉厌世的感觉爆出来，导致这个人物的死亡撑不起后面的情绪。上半场如果还能说是四平八稳下半场就是直接脱线，把真相暴露这个大矛盾隐下来的直接后果是剧情变平庸，再删去Evan和想象中的Connor交谈的部分，让Evan的心境变化都过分含蓄了，这让后一个半小时被迫显得冗长且后劲不足。最可惜的是在影视化DEH无比精巧的舞台设计的一百种方式中，导演偏偏选择了蒙太奇这最省事的一种……也罢，至少它肯定没有《身在高地》失败。

一大早跑去电影院看的 很接近生活 那些琐碎的事 但是这个道理又讲的不深不浅 如果结尾能处理成他的谎言被识破 然后身心重创自杀 其他人的各种反应 冲击力会更大
大热音乐剧改编，探讨青少年问题，细腻、感人，音乐好听~
先说，我真的很爱舞台版，但是电影版真的很烂，节奏不对，刻板印象的社恐表现？真的很迷惑，想给两星的，多了一星还是因为我真的爱舞台版和新加的一首歌，虽然也很稀碎，那四首歌为啥删阿！感觉全片的人物就只剩下埃文了，是没错埃文是主角，但不意味着全片都围绕着主角转
前半段全程眼泪没停过 被读懂的渴望永远在骚动 看完又觉得悲哀而讽刺了 nobody’s waving back at me 同情心和共情是短暂的东西 自顾不暇的忙碌世界里没有人有力气多匀任何一点关注给你 逐渐被遗忘过后 依然只有自己可以拯救自己 I’m a creep I’m a weirdo but I’m trying my best to be myself
看之前已经降低了预期值

给个四分吧，主要是歌都太熟了，基本也猜到故事情节了，我觉得这确实是一部可能音乐剧效果会大于电影的作品（虽然没有看过音乐剧），是觉得剧情上还是分镜上，电影做的其实都非常的粗糙，zoe和evan唱歌那一段我真的，这首歌毁了反正，太尴尬了，还剪辑各种旋转木马。现场就真的唱歌就好了，我觉得这样渲染感情不会太过。anyway，冲着这里面这些歌我还是要打四分
导演和剪辑都给我去死啊，把我最喜欢的剧改成这样
流眼泪 但并不是感动的 是困的打哈欠挤出来的
本来是很好的主题 结果全程没有一点被感动到 唉
很抓人的题材
我真是不喜欢“the fall of the hero”这种故事结构，虽然这仿佛是最常见的故事结构，但大半部电影的时间就在紧张地等待这一刻的发生，体验感太差，这就是为什么我也不喜欢《寄生虫》。mental health这个主题我还是鼓励一下吧…
总有种莫名很缺钱的感觉，舞台剧的张力少了很多；sincere me那段还挺可爱
为什么这么多人骂啊，剧粉表示有Ben Platt还要什么自行车啊！
剧的优秀之处就在于虽然看完后大家对于各角色都有自己（甚至有些尖锐）的看法，但因为这些冲突矛盾真实&初心确实是好的以及故事完整音乐也很抓耳，所以总来的说不管带给你什么感受它都还是部值得一看的佳作。电影版我对ben演高中生其实没啥意见，倒是Connor我很疑惑，比起被孤立的人我觉得他更像带头霸凌他人的老大好吧，不过这也不重要。电影让我最恶心的一点是把角色自身的特点全都弱化甚至删没了，父母直接变工具人，Jared不那么刻薄嘲讽了（虽然我觉得和表演有关）Zoe很快接受了哥哥的挚友，至于Alana，这什么善良可爱惹人怜的小天使？但全员脸谱化加冲突弱化有让电影更好嘛？？说实话我不理解得过托尼奖还有演技派女星撑腰结果最后出来的结果就这？清醒一点别瞎搞了，还不如出个官摄。
