5.0 / 10 · TMDB

The film focuses on Murri; the token maverick cop. He is called in after a bunch of criminals pull off a successful prison break and spend the night picking off various informers and people they don't like. Murri investigates; hooking up with one of the criminal's nieces along the way. He uses his own methods; which mostly involve breaking all the rules, and thus comes under a lot of scrutiny from his superiors who don't take too kindly to the cop's way of working.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The film constructs a classic poliziottesco framework, relying on the archetype of the rogue cop and a plot fueled by vendetta and chaotic violence. It explores the gritty, morally ambiguous world where the line between lawman and outlaw blurs.

What lingers after the final chase is the image of a cynical, broken system where justice is a personal affair, delivered with brute force and a snarl. — MovieFinder Editorial

Director: Giuseppe Rosati

Best viewed late at night with a drink, embracing the raw, unpolished energy of 70s Italian crime cinema.
