It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

Crime caper with a buddy act thrown in. It's an Italian production and so the foreign cast members are dubbed, though Roger Moore speaks fluent Italian as and when required. Moore plays an English-Sicilian lawyer, nephew of a Sicilian crime family head who now operates out of San Francisco. Moore teams up with Friscan wiseguy Stacey Keach as they track down some drug smugglers who've cross the line, coming into conflict with a wider criminal underworld. There are impressive car chase sequences and shoot-outs, but the double act never really goes up the gears despite good screen chemistry. Moore comes over a bit stilted while Keach is the funnier of the two. Although scripted by the Academy Award winning screenwriter of The French Connection the film suffers from poor editing and some shoddy camerawork at times. The film might have some interest value for viewers who have a curiosity for a story that is hard to fathom.

I just finished watching it. I wonder what it is about. Roger Moore and Stacy Keach are good at what they are doing. They seem to hit their marks and say their lines, probably. I don't think there is a female lead or co star or featured player in this. There are two car chase scenes. About ten cars and at least one semi truck are damaged.The characters speak Italian at times. Almost forgot, there is a fish in the movie. I think this movie needs a cat.This is the only movie I have ever watched that mentions powdered milk. I do like powdered milk. Some people get shot and at least one kid grows up to be Roger Moore, I think.

Disjointed gangster film that specializes in pointless "destruction of property" scenes. Roger Moore is badly miscast; he clearly looks uncomfortable to be in an Italian crime movie, and he shows none of his usual flair. Don't go out of your way to see this one. (*1/2)

Aside from the novelty of seeing Roger Moore (as a half-Sicilian!) and Stacy Keach, there really isn't much of interest here. It's mostly people talking - all dubbed. Even Moore and Keach are dubbed! (Using their own voices, which leads to a weird effect) There are a few not-bad chase sequences, but there's a sloppiness to them, as there is to the entire production; this movie really screams, "Italians made this." Bobbing cameras, slightly blurred photography, uses of a zoom lens is more than enough evidence for that. Only for people into Italian cinema of this genre.
