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!

配乐好听，剧情有些无聊。反映了少数人群的一些特点，但又有点似曾相识和不痛不痒。
感觉少年情绪表现得挺好的，我也常常会有被抛弃的感觉，也常常烦躁，偶尔哭泣。
没有想象的那么好
大型mv现场，琉璃质感的眼睛，帅啊，他的演技在这种青春片够用的。片尾还有几张以前我最爱的油管时期的照片。

戳爷这里出的两首歌太好听了，为歌而来。电影就无功无过了，当个小清新糖水还算行，戳爷的颜值我是get不到，但印度小哥长得蛮可以，最后原因竟然是选择学业笑死，亚洲文化正面直刚美国热浪青少年。
清新、轻巧。卸掉美妆的戳爷也太鲜嫩了吧……

很久没看过这样的电影了 爱情友情亲情 轻松 少年感
糖水片+美式小清新青春疼痛，题材立意都蛮好的，就是叙事太平了，像个加长mv。在病友里找男朋友这种操作倒也不必了，终究还是只有姐妹靠得住hhh。
