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!

不知道是我的要求变高了，还是大家的要求变低了，真的觉得很多情节是在充时长，设计感很明显，有点拙劣，Justin还是请不要拍影视剧了吧。
来之前看过一些影评都夸，声称女性主义电影，进去直呼上当，头一次见围绕男主角为第一视角的女性主义。非得睡同一个男人才能将几个女人联系起来吗？想不通。
看完心情挺复杂的，一方面是因为电影主题，女性➕人性➕政治，另一方面是又挺不理解的，很多编剧痕迹让人不能沉浸其中。
解决提出问题的人，所有阶级固化的体制下都有肮脏的政治和血淋淋的尸体
那是片尾点题的爱情神话。
神片算不上，但印度电影真在觉醒，被蒙住眼睛捂住嘴巴，总要有人出来呐喊吧。哪怕是微弱的声音，我们还没有被逼到绝境，懂的都懂
现实主义题材是电影的素材宝库，遗憾的是我们的宝库不能轻易打开。所以我们近年来只能看华丽空洞，载道言志的《影》。恒河帮真是个神奇的国度。愚昧与进步，部落“贱民”和暴发户，传统种姓制度与进步开明观念，地狱中的妇女和不休的平权运动，多神多宗教多语言多意识形态糅合成这么一个乱成一锅粥的不好打理的国家。影片想说民意其实是不理智的，你眼睛看到的也不一定是真相。媒体提前定罪，阿sir提前执法。司法独立给弱势群体带来微弱但肯定的希望。每当有脏事儿发生就会有另外一些无关紧要的事来分散民众视线，这一招，我们也会。阿三在进步，鸡国当自强。
怎么说呢，能拍出来就非常不错，能展示这样的过程，能有勇于认错的警察，能够倾听真相的法官，已经胜过无数，期待我们也能

又是国内没法立项，立项也没人投资，投资也没法拍完，拍完也没法过审的电影。国内编剧老是抱怨悬疑剧太难拍，来看看人家怎么先扬后抑，反转再反转的。说说剧情吧，终于有部电影触及印度社会的根源问题：种姓制度。这种与社会脱节落后的种族制度，才是造成印度各种社会恶象的根源。希望这部电影带来的些许影响，真的是可以推动历史的车轮再往前行进少许，而不是像电影内容一样，被权力裹挟着的舆论，变成统治的工具，风口浪尖潮起潮落，都只是掌权者的余兴节目。总的来说，故事是真的好，但是煽情方面还是差了点，可能和叙事结构也有关系，五星没问题，瑕不掩瑜。
没有人能将每一条树根全盘拔起，因为当你捋着它行走的脉络挖掘时，会发现一个悲哀的事实是，自己并不是在跟这个树疙瘩本身较劲，而是在和脚下的整片土地做对了。
徐峥的角色简直是失意中年男人yy的天花板：有钱有房有技能、离婚但是他没犯错、儿子高高帅帅、生活小有情调、什么都会一点、做的一手好菜、能耐心照顾孩子发福但是没脱发、三个女人都喜欢他，一夜情一波接一波，这哪里是讨论中年人的爱情，简直就是爽文模板。跟人滚完床单还一副委屈巴巴的样子，总让人觉得像个完美受害者。

这部剧真的很神奇，尤其是中国发生了唐山事件后，简直是嘲讽至极~
现在看到这种电影的第一反应居然是：好敢拍。真羡慕啊。
现在印度的电影大多都是讲反种姓、人权反面的，并且拍得越来越有意思，这部的剧情反转，更是拍出了新高度。“即溶正义”，法律和正义不总是一样，鞭笞继续吧。
正义，究竟是有多么多么难才能覆盖地球？这部电影的深度，已经穿透了地心，直接穿到了每个看过它的人心中，每一个善良的人心中！层级的差异化把舆论，法律，警察等等都赤裸裸展示在了台面上，赤裸得令人发指。千言万语，情认真去看，这部电影今年奥斯卡拿不到我直播洗头！PS.这印度的正义的律师一个比一个帅，一个比一个牛逼。 或许这部电影揭开了人类社会的本质，永远都是对立的两方——宿敌在战斗，人类社会本身就是一场“体制的屠杀”。
