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!
看了很多电影的风格在里面，如双旗镇刀客、东邪西毒等，有西部电影的风格！故事剧情一般，动作剪辑有模有样，算是一部整体还不错的个人风格电影。
除了剧情有那么点硬伤
真的是比相当多的院线电影强太多了。
要不压缩一下，节奏紧凑一些。要不再续写一些，人物饱满一些。 拍得没问题，人物形象真的没有记住。有些着急想讲清楚这个故事，又感觉草草收场。
武侠片已经成为历史了，扶不起来啦。不建议看，最多三星。
研究生，还期待武侠中的世界，是不是不应该啊😐😐😐
剧情一般，前2场打斗还不错。
故事性太弱了，逻辑硬伤，主角可以为了一个交情不是很深的人（至少片中没体现）承担罪名，可以轻易把女儿托付给一个让自己流放十年的情敌。这还是一部男性视角下的武侠片，女性在其中的设定是弱者，是需要依附男性存在的人。片子场面调度方面还不错，布光氛围都挺好。总的来说，是部中规中矩的片子。
风格武指还行，剧情及逻辑有点突兀，这十来年好的武侠片很少。
哈哈哈哈哈，日子都快过不下去了，见天的有人来比刀！要比咱收费吧。虽然动作戏的观赏性不如李连杰时代的拍摄手法，但相对于现在各种夸张的电脑特效还是强多了。
值得一看，中规中矩的讲故事，武打细节有质感，也在努力营造肃杀感，只是剧情稍弱，有点《绣春刀》基层版的意思-生存环境更恶劣，人物关系的设置不错，兄弟矛盾、江湖仇杀、权力压榨、刀法对决，一应俱全，只是矛盾张力不够大，没有推到极致，但该有点都有了，总体来说比较用心了，武侠不易，加一星支持。
导演是徐浩峰迷吗 情节问题不少，一些表演也差点，胜在氛围
刀刀溅血，杀人不废话，布景用心有质感，动作利落无慢镜，光凭这几点就完胜热搜上的一堆古装剧。PS：回马枪真是YYDS！
摄影、布景还行，后半段故事，是编剧突然病了吗？陆萍这线合人情吗？陆老婆怎么圣母爆婊了？
大漠苍凉的氛围渲染的不错，讲故事的功力需要继续打磨。
西部片+日本刀剑片片，极简主义的风格化（也可以看出没有多少成本）。台词没有一般网大的那么浮夸（比如某位影评人的那部同类型作品），剧本、动作场面也屡见不鲜，及格吧
小电影，非名家大导出手，感觉已经很不错了，比网上一大堆垃圾强多了！对了，这摄影真不错！
毕竟是网大，拍的东西就是东拼西凑，明显可以看到《东邪西毒》《绣春刀》《水浒传》和徐皓峰的影子，又多处致敬邵氏电影，但画虎不成反类犬，人物表演和服化道不伦不类，主角一脸面瘫，明显是cosplay宋洋，名字竟然叫大卫；反派一副脏辫二混子样，一看就是深受热血高校毒害
剧情一塌糊涂，节奏把握的很差劲，唯一的亮点是鬼刀林和长刀客两人在坟头拼刀的部分，在这里武指有大师风范了，懂得藏巧于拙。其他地方就不行了，两人最后那一段拼刀也很一般，完全就是比狠了。
原来中国也可以有森田芳光，这部戏更接近《黄昏的清兵卫》的内核。
