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!
或许，一个有意识的数字角色也能高呼：无产者们，联合起来！
怎么有人因为一闪而过的中餐馆场景而感到辱华？那个游戏大佬的印度味儿还有火车铁轨边的印度家庭呢？辱印了？故事是有漏洞，好笑也是真好笑，对guy的成长也写得很清楚，羡慕这种能力。
终于终于今年在电影院看了一部好看的电影！很开心！尤其可以买爆米花进去就更开心了！
疫情下愁云惨淡的世界，太需要如此美好治愈的电影了！
查宁·塔图姆自己玩起自己当年做过舞男的梗，彻底给我笑飞
在模仿港片但是又找不到精髓的感觉。演员似乎知道这是部爽片，漫不经心的演技有点让人不入戏。给三星是为了孙锡久。无感情的反人类的大反派演得挺好的。
Ｄ/ 没想到还过得去。剧作内核里的所谓“解放”逻辑是和《黑寡妇》一样想当然的，但是实现的过程相比之下丰富很多。也正是因此两个世界之间确实产生了些许美妙的联结。但总体而言还是太过于常规的“glitch-修复”套路，并非glitch艺术。以及，这种降智资本家形象越来越多也真的是只能让关于自由的想象越来越匮乏。
整体剧情偏感情化，游戏性和玩梗程度不算高，世界观属于小打小闹，所以结尾又回归到现实的小情愫，更多是逗比耍贱。既然被迪士尼收购了，ip宇宙太多了，拿来用的太少，可惜了。
《楚门的世界》+《明日边缘》+《头号玩家》+《勇敢者游戏》，太多好莱坞的残影，太多陈词滥调的主题和情节，却足以在疫情时代的电影院撞出情感的暖流。它完成的仍是对观众而非游戏玩家的指涉：电影院是自由城，冲破海滩的银幕就能抵达极乐净土；尽管每天/每部都在单调的循环之中，但商业片们确是陪伴影迷多年的老友。塔伊加·维迪提饰演的反派越是刻板，越成为好莱坞的某种自嘲；NPC的自我意识也不光是对人工智能的展望，更是对诸多经典银幕形象的生命力的礼赞。于是，老套暂时变作了老派，容我在美队盾牌出现的时刻献上惊呼。
B / 中途Guy质疑人生意义的时候已经无限接近一种对存在意义的哲思，但只是这毕竟不应该是继续往下探讨的批判性电影，终归回归到娱乐性言情剧。最后一台服务器仍然不会被试验性地摧毁，来映证人生皆为此时此刻的结论。
It's weird that I found a popcorn movie so deep on so many levels, like 1) the notion that you follow a daily routine but are free to break through it, 2) we may be programmed in this way or that way but that doesn't mean our life is in any way less real, 3) how love completes you as a human being, and 4) how satisfying it is to create something...
本片对于虚拟世界的问题无兴趣或者理解，专搞烂俗桥段，对这个概念感兴趣想去看的还是劝退了。推荐1999年的 The Thirteenth Floor，对虚拟/现实这个概念的诚意要高太多。它本身又是1973年德国电影World on a Wire 的翻拍，硬核的可看一下
极限缝合怪，瞎胡闹版「头号玩家」+「乐高大电影」+「楚门的世界」+「异次元骇客」，主角就是个不说脏字的死侍。
有人说这就是《楚门的世界》➕《头号玩家》，但我觉得主角Guy就是一个不折不扣的AI版的“摩西”，带领众人“数字罢工”。剧情紧凑，节奏恰到好处。快结束的那一段真的太好玩了，把美国队长、绿巨人、星球大战玩了个遍。
Don’t have a good day. Have a great day! 看到Boston真是泪流满面
比较优秀的爆米花电影＋一点点很有道理的道理，用来放松一下完全够了
所以GTA的尽头是模拟人生，洛圣都海上空气墙后面就是柳溪小镇和索拉尼群岛。
无限想象，纯真可爱，剧情虽老套，但特效过足瘾——话说往往是简简单单的快乐最能打动人心啊。/ PS.朱迪·科默胖了。。。也好看！
如果AI说出 我只是写给你的一封情书 那不就抹灭了他自身的存在了吗？不就代表承认自己是工具了么？我不太理解 就算创造我的人 和我 拥有同样的想法 不代表我们是一个人 有点复杂 有点解释不清楚 总之我觉得烂尾了 但也不可能有更好的结尾了
游戏版《楚门的世界》。观影过程很愉快。查宁塔图姆和克里斯埃文斯打酱油。电影的中心思想：脱离被洗脑的生活，培养独立思考的能力。
