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!
山雀让我惊喜 雷光夏让我惊喜 这配乐简直卡在我心里
韩寒的电影世界里，一直有着父子情，一直有着同好兄弟情，但不知怎么回事，这部作品的重心居然放在了小镇青年的爱情上面。讲着两个年轻人怀揣理想，来到大城市却找不到目标，当好不容易找到了点慰藉，又纷纷被生活教训了一顿。这故事处处都带着伤痛文学的感觉，想当年文风潇洒的韩寒，竟也写出这种郭敬明爱写的东西，是我始料未及的。韩寒笔下那个爱耍小聪明，厌烦于俗世的男主角在这部电影的一半就被大海吞没了，剩下的就是一个普通陌生敏感的郭敬明了。整体的节奏把握也有问题，小镇生活写了大半，城市部分写的很少，更像后面加上去的部分。强烈的割裂感让这部电影比起之前都要差。。。 20220529
如果故事能够不紧不慢娓娓道来就更棒了
有的时候人生就像那个摩托笼子一样，我们看似拼命的踩油门，实际上却是在原地转圈，每个人都想闯出自己的一方天地，但是骑摩托的依旧骑摩托，做服务员的依旧做服务员，看似有很多选择，但是尤其成年后，选择的余地并不多。
这部影片不适合放在春节档 看的人感觉很不好
我竟然能听出来片尾曲是雷光夏的声音。结局是什么？
看的我们哈哈大笑。笑点还是挺多的。只不过这个天空不会给我们想要的答案而已。估计韩寒老师陷进去了新海誠状态。希望快快爬出来
努力之后呢？就和没做一样。
没有想象那么差，抖着小聪明的机灵更无伤大雅，超现实主义的情节安排未必突兀，只是阐述生活中无法圆满的梦和寂寥无奈中的希望，非常韩寒。
拍的什么呢这是，没头没尾的故事讲了又好像啥也没讲，里面的每个角色基本都是谁来演都可以的，甚至连MV都不如
在乎的面子，高兴的愿望，欢愉的期待，明明就在那，就像推开门便唾手可得，却始终不知道怎么打开，直到被迫离去。
希望以后能够有机会在影院重温。以后作者化的电影不再参考评分了，太坑了。
段子好笑，大城市与城中村的心酸，失败与失恋的无奈，都挺好。只是衔接的方式…仍像是在读他写的一座城池像少年啦飞驰这些，韩寒的导演能力根本驾驭不了这种松散的叙事吧。刘浩存念台词真的，棒读？
你那不叫抖包袱，太尬太硬，毫不自然。好好的拍个故事就行了，平凡些不用生离死别的。
太碎，想把赛车，段子，音乐都放进去。什么都要，什么都拼拼凑凑。韩寒仍没有升格成一个电影的创作者。一路看下来，我觉得这个升格应该不会完成了。
另外刘浩存眼睛好大！感觉越来越大了！！
与《奇迹》最后所有人都收获成功恰恰相反，这部电影的结局是相当悲惨的，物是人非，车损人亡，生活仿佛没有了一切希望，一切本该向好的方向发展的事情，全都搞砸了，看完只有无尽的压抑。
觉得春节不想看悲剧的，现在可以去看四海了，希望能给他一个公平的评价。人生本身就不会一帆风顺，人生百态大抵是失败和悲凉的。阿耀和欢颂有段对话，大致是阿耀说自己怕火，欢颂说自己怕水。最后，恰好是阿耀坠落着火，欢颂掉进江里。这种算什么呢？算是对刻板的、充满陈规的生活的一种黑色幽默吧。游泳时，他们是真的自在，后面飞跃和送摩托时也是真的快乐，这种幽默和忧伤的极致浪漫，也算是对平凡生活的解构了
韩寒就是韩寒，独一无二的韩寒，你永远可以相信他拍的关于车的场景。最开始提到柯受良，后面居然真的拍了飞跃的画面，配合音效的画面感比飞跃黄河还震惊。
剧情和女主演技绝配，但刘浩存确实挺好看的。
