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!
不管是怎样的大人物，回首人生时，最怀念的永远是一无所有却青春洋溢的日子。仿佛还是浅草的那个小男生，理直气壮地宣告世界「芸人だよ！馬鹿野郎！」
姜还是老的辣，而且还是块很有天赋的老姜！虽然反转和高潮没有太大的惊喜，但是就是很有味道。不像可乐一样刺激，但像咖啡一样让人不眠。
完美之所以是最后必要的步骤，是因为它根本无法实现
干瘪的内核，单薄的人物，平庸的调度，靠着一个完全不可信的桌下炸弹悬念吊了半个多小时，拍得像一次严谨单调的裁缝活，最无聊的室内剧就长这样……
比期待的好很多，铃木保奈美依然是我心目中的女神。影片的理念也是我也是天堂电影院一直在坚持做的事情，不去讨好影迷讨好观众，而是你要去告诉观众什么才是真正好的有趣有意义的电影。
仅有的一些炫技部分值得表扬，如缝合与编织的视觉串联。影片的悬疑性在第一次平行剪辑时破了功；而黑帮父亲的行为部分不但没深入，反而让他发了两次傻，他如此信任裁缝的铺垫完全不够，这个角色基本废了啊；后面怎么拉也拉不回来了。哦故事背景and职业设定 也不错
高潮戏，我也屏住了呼吸，希望不要落下
但愿电影市场能够恢复正常吧。
单一场景，话剧电影，依靠对话和巧合层层递进，剧本扎实，酣畅淋漓。Richie有角度像马修古迪， Francis有角度像迈克尔皮特，片尾出字幕，名字里带有O的停留时间稍微久一点，然而最后三秒出现FOCUS时，O却是模糊的
全部情節都在一間裁縫鋪裏發生，劇情一次又一次的反轉太驚艷了，老裁縫躲在暗處挑起猜疑的火苗，所有人都在他設好的局中起舞，不費一兵一卒的掌控才是真正優秀的計謀，老爺子的演技真的太絕了。。。
嗯 觉得男主的表演有些让人出戏 虽然我也知道北野武因受伤导致面瘫 还会间歇性眨眼 这是对人物的还原 但和女生第一次在舞台遇见的那场戏（那时候北野武还没受伤）表演实在有些奇怪…
古典悬疑话剧，工整严谨，利用套层信息差，让观众结尾小高潮，核心叙事技巧也隐隐有些剧透就四个字：扮猪吃虎
记性好的时候，看过的东西会像走马灯一样在脑海里迅速的过一遍，现在只有一个模糊的，朦胧的印象，有点像消化不良，堆积在那里。我说这些，是因为当我想说什么的时候发现什么也想不起来了。
看得好感动，哭得眼泪哗啦。一开篇北野武唱起《浅草小子》，我眼泪就藏不住啦。铃木保奈美还是那么美，可是年轻时多么放荡不羁，如今也是典型日本女性温良谦恭的模样。
“完美是无法实现的，所以才要追求完美。
偏古典风格的推理悬疑，当然还有犯罪。
果然本気な漫才が熱いなぁ，我记得看过一个报道是出过一次车祸之后半边瘫了才会脸有点歪，一开始觉得有点模仿过度，但是看着看着真的好像北野武。给师傅放高跟鞋那段开始，我鸡皮疙瘩就停不下来了，最后那段浑身都在发麻，真的太好看了。
单一场景，非常话剧感的悬疑片，最后一段弗朗西斯又起来后的反转稍显多余，破坏了全片既紧张又从容的节奏感
美国黑帮风云仅是悬疑反转的残渣，伦敦学究发音为犯罪镀上优雅的金边。背叛的废土上长出迷幻的玻璃球，脏污的钱箱里交换干净的异国梦。用洞穿腰间的子弹浓缩一场盛大的械斗，以裁剪布料的剪刀制胜满城枪火，用录音带的长卷布下贪婪的圈套，让缝纫店的怒焰将无情都市燃成灰烬。为人父母有时便仿若是那套高高悬挂的样衣，但是否合身依然需要自我去剪裁。
在同类追忆型自传作品中算是完成度较高的。以及主角若不是柳乐以及麦小姐，估计质量会塌陷的厉害。
