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!
如果说《决斗的人》讲的是宿敌之恨化解于历史大义的故事，那么这部电影就毫无保留地戳破了这种“大义”，斯科特的中世纪也摒弃了《角斗士》里的返古浪漫主义，留下的只有泥泞、寒冷、一帮自私的男人和一个坚毅的女人。
很久没看过这么震撼的电影了，震撼不在于故事多么得不可思议，而是它真实得可怕，这也许能算是“借古讽今”吧？第三章是绝对的高潮，导演的目的达到了，决斗戏漫长血腥到让人如坐针毡，让人完全地共情了女主角。玛格丽特在剧中有多美丽，两个男人就有多丑陋。唯一的问题：他们怎么一个个能闭着眼管Adam Driver这张丑脸口口声声handsome？P.S.让我们来猜猜给低分的一般是什么性别？
不是罗生门式各个角度的诠释，而是同一个真相不同利益相关者各自的权衡。
情节有点不连贯，节奏有点慢，背景音乐完全跟不上内心戏。但怎么说，完结了。
Judie 尽显大女主风采，每一个特写都那么美；Matt，Ben 和 Adam 的演出精彩纷呈；看完此片，只想祝雷老爷子电影艺术生命无限延续~ Long live Ridley!!!
以罗生门的视角来讲中世纪战争中一场关于女性财产而生死决斗的故事，阵容强大，决斗精彩，但总觉得有些杀鸡焉用牛刀
浪客剑心真人版系列最好的一部。影片开始一连串的厮杀先声夺人，亮明了刽子手拔刀斋的冷酷无情，喷溅的血成雾状，配合拔刀斋快速的劈砍，在视觉上造成很强的冲击感。带着怨念的刀疤，一场腥风血雨的邂逅，雪代巴是刽子手的刀鞘，她带着仇恨却救赎了绯村，将他杀人的刀封印起来让他活着像个人。佐藤健演绎的绯村拔刀斋纯真温润的让人心碎，有村架纯的雪代巴出奇的好，转型很成功
お疲れ様でした。十年間ありがとう。
这让最后的决斗看起来无比残酷，但也十分可笑。
好 真的好 虽然是个罗生门式叙事但并没不玩高深不玩暗示不玩隐喻 是那种浅显的与民同乐的好 同时还也有精彩故事有现实意义 大本和马达参与编剧又是一层乐趣 真·娱乐大片
似乎“不接种就不给绿码”的玄疑故事，此片以“尊严-名誉-虚荣”交织“knife-wife-life”，女的要“爱拼才会赢”，男的是“爱赢才会拼”，男的决斗赢了，最后只有往耶路撒冷拼去了……如此看来，还是《道士下山》里暗含的“接种”比较委曲（不是“委屈”）。
中世纪的奇情、粗野和虚伪，表现的恰到好处，真相关乎荣誉，从来与正义难容。
“God be with you, My Lady.” Tale as old as storytelling. Sighs endure where delusions prevail.
我说前两个男性视角怎么看得让人焦躁，那不就是两个同事在年终kpi考核述职的时候，拼命粉饰自己，抹黑别人？
最终，她发现真相对她毫无意义。好在，丈夫在拼杀关头还算争气。
确实展现了父权视角下的自以为是，但无感知的人仍不在乎
連續兩週的週一都能在大銀幕上看到我家戀愛少女，也太令人太開心了吧！雖然這次劇情一開始我有點懵，Chapter2的時候將信將疑，直到Chapter3瑪格麗特視角的時候os「だろね呵呵。 」一句話點評「最史詩級的小三片&我以為去看了歷史劇沒想到是個女權片」。 2021.10.18 in.ユナイテッド豊洲
罗生门视角揭露人物的心灵运作：从莽夫的视角看到委屈，从弄臣的视角看到征服，从女性的视角看到禁锢和失声。近乎同机位来比较记忆的偏差，男性自我美化的过程暴露无遗，保守示好曲解为媚眼如丝，狼狈丢鞋曲解为欲拒还迎，而男性的一切行为都恪守了荣誉。为什么拼死上诉这一段，回应了metoo质疑者的问题。听耐观影说历史上女性发起上诉没有记载，但我不反对一切历史都是当代史。
丈夫，妻子，强奸者与敌人……怎么说呢，可以看，也很欣慰最后耶稣支持了他们。电影妙在一个事被以不同人的角度反复讲（罗生门？），引发人的思考。但故事本身较简单，偏爱剧情的我未免觉得有些乏味。
