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!
7.5分。老爷子Mark Rylance当年在《间谍之桥》就给我留下深刻印象，这次唱独角戏也是光芒万丈。电影颇有舞台感，所有冲突都发生在裁缝店室内，真的是考验演员功力。老爷子应该是有心杀贼，但具体能实施到这个程度不在控制范围内。几个最重要的节点都在他控制范围外，譬如马仔和太子的矛盾能激化到互杀，或者马仔最后想蛇吞象干掉拉方丹之类的。最后一场展现真正的技术这里不是太喜欢，这纯粹是为了表现老爷子年轻故事的，如果换一种平静的方式表达我个人觉得会好吧。
好的电影不需要大制作，一间屋子就拍的很够吸引人
一如既往地干！往死里干！马东锡10年终于混出来了！看到的是重拳出击，估计也得上百磅吧？忽然想起之前说泰森和成龙打，谁会赢？泰森的拳头好像有几百磅吧，一头牛都能干死，别说人了。在绝对力量面前什么套路都是白搭！马东锡加油啊
耳光侠成名作再续之越南出任务。马东锡还是演这种纯粹的犯罪动作喜剧更合适，自己演着对路，观众看的过瘾。虽然反派比起第一集的哈尔滨张谦弱了点，但不难看出来整部戏动作效果的升级，连长镜头都用进去了。
好看诶！看完以后感觉自己参与了高级狼人杀，天黑请闭眼，天亮请睁眼。谁是老鼠？
故弄玄虚得很厉害，比如开头那一长段长段的对话和自白，比如结尾还非要露一下手臂纹身装个逼……
全室内戏好精彩，悬念和张力全靠表演和台词，有学到tailor和cutter的区别，un couper的叫法好骚(不是)。几位主角在话剧舞台熠熠生辉，在镜头下也充满魅力呢~
室内舞台剧，反转没有很惊喜，节奏还算紧凑。
小场景极致精巧的细节打磨。尽管有些忽略了人本身行为的不可预知性，但是就像最后一幕二当家起身也不在他的预料之中，但他却依旧凭借自己的能力解决突发状况一样，一部分精心设计+一部分随机应变也是很不错的处理方式。年度top10预选。
单一场景小成本又一力作，老头边说边缝缝补补的细节很精彩，像凶险的蜘蛛一样耐心的布局织网，在这里逻辑显然不再重要，一切看似不可控而精彩，又胜在狡诈的应变和好运连连的主角光环，让老头这一角色人物更生动丰满
节奏和气氛都很好，几个重要的转折过于失信。做成舞台剧去演，讲不准更好看一些。
故事其实不算多新颖，主角刚出场就有一股深夜食堂老板的调调，很容易预判到后面的发展。但单场景的话剧式编排就和电影里的服装一样精致，叙事节奏十分古典，不慌不忙、娓娓道来，在现今实属难得。值得悬疑、惊悚、绅装爱好者一看。
男主的武器不是刀不是枪，一张嘴足以。舞台剧十足，黑帮的血腥和义气在一个房间里展现。

除了主演，其他人的演技是真够差的。剧本是为了反转而反转，人物不太扎实。室内剧难拍，镜头过于干瘪，整片看完感到很对不起自己的时间。
一盘大棋啊。一卷磁带引发的血案，简直是兵不血刃，事实证明即使用兵器也还能打。人才啊，谋士，一看他话含机锋，一来就反间，就不可能是个普普通通的裁缝。一个晚上，一个裁缝店，一个老人，扳倒了两个大黑帮，死了个傻少爷，把鹰犬和大佬搞得团团转，引来个对手，全灭了，保全了个女儿，最后自己几乎全身而退。
这绝对是国内最喜爱的翻拍剧本，层层反转，逻辑缜密，又是小成本制作
这个故事交给盖里奇或者昆汀，可能在三十分钟内就结束了。当我看到二十分钟的时候就已经猜到了全部的故事。但我没有料到的是这个故事会被拍得这么冗长而无聊。
体会到久违了的观片愉悦感。
小场景里的极限调度，剧场电影的典范，小而美的榜样，无需过多深刻的立意，不用太多炫目的打斗，所有的一切藏在一个小小的裁缝店里，一个人，一把剪刀，几个在门前门后进场出场的角色，就能盘活一部无限反转的电影。
