1977意大利惊悚片《Il cinico, l'infame, il violento》由Umberto Lenzi导演，Maurizio Merli主演，影片讲述的是：
The Cynic The Rat and The Fist clearly takes influence regarding its central theme from the Sergio Leone masterpiece The Good The Bad and The Ugly and here we follow the fortunes of three strong male characters as their lives intertwine in the name of crime Director Umberto Lenzi plied his trade in a number of Italys most popular genres and his resume includes the likes of zombies cannibals and Giallo but the only field hes a master in is the Dirty Harry inspired subgenre Polizia This is only my third Lenzi crime flick but I wouldnt be surprised to find that its one of the best he ever made as the masterpiece Almost Human only just edges it out Umberto Lenzi packs his film with all the things youd expect from the crime genre with things such as shootouts car chases and sadism featuring strongly The actual plot is a little convoluted and follows Italian mob boss The Chinaman as he hooks up with New York crime lord Frank Di Maggio The cop looking to take the pair of them down is Leonardo Tanzi a man not afraid to break the law in order to bring in his man
Exactly which of the title monikers apply to which of the three characters is never really explained although personally I wager that Tomas Milians Chinaman is The Cynic John Saxons mob boss is The Rat and Maurizio Merli violent copper is the aptly named The Fist One of the films strongest elements is undoubtedly the cast list as the central trio of characters are brought to life by three of cult cinemas best actors Tomas Milian certainly knows his way around a sadistic part while the underrated and sadly here underused John Saxons resume speaks for itself Maurizio Merli is perhaps the least accredited member of the cast but lead roles in this and Lenzis Violent Naples certainly shows that the man can play the gritty copper The plot flows very well and Lenzis direction continually impresses It can be a little hard to follow at times but theres always enough shooting and murders to keep genre fans happy The ending is a major strongpoint too as Lenzi spends the entire film building up to a showdown and when it hits it doesnt disappoint Overall this is a first class example of the Italian crime thriller and comes highly recommended
