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!。從片名【變身國王２：高剛外傳】可知，原本邪惡女祭司 Yzma 的那位傻大個助手 Kronk 將有大表現了，其實這角色當初意外成為全片最喜愛的角色，配音者 Patrick Warburton 還因本片被讚為該年度最佳喜劇表演，如今居然以配角之姿推出後續作品，真是傻人有傻福！本片的故事敘述 Kronk 當初幫助 Kuzco 國王復位，也讓自己脫離 Yzma 的暴虐統治，如今 Kronk 在王國中不但成為當地餐廳的主廚，而且還是童軍團的領隊，甚至在他生命中還出現心儀的女生 Birdwell，日子過得十分得意。不料有一天，他聽到父親即將來訪，這讓他分寸大亂，原來 Kronk 跟父親 Papi 之間關係不太投緣，Kronk 一直希望得到父親的認同，但 Papi 卻對兒子百般挑剔。如今聽到父親即將來訪，Kronk 心中忐忑不安，決定使出渾身解數贏得父親的歡心。他...。贝热尼丝·贝乔([过往])、苏珊娜·克莱蒙([妈咪])主演的新片[游戏](Le Jeu，暂译)已于上月开拍。弗雷德·卡瓦耶([小气鬼])执导，电影改编自意大利影片[完美陌生人]。讲述几对情侣朋友在晚餐时玩了一个游戏，要求把手机放桌上，并分享彼此的短信、来电和邮件。而该游戏最后成了一场噩梦。其他主演还包括斯特凡·德巴、樊尚·埃尔巴兹、格莱高利·嘉德波瓦、罗什迪·泽姆等人。。
