This is a very hard film to review fairly in its currently available format--an English-dubbed videotape from Finland. La Violenza: Quinto Potere (titled The Sicilian Checkmate on the tape) is an extremely talky courtroom drama steeped in Italian politics of the period, and therefore is pretty hard going for an Anglophone audience unfamiliar (as am I) with the topic. Taking pla...

意大利经典警匪片。《出生入死》从集团犯罪的源头——西西里入手，把战后黑社会在西西里乃至整个意大利的演变历史和现状的方方面面进行了更为细致深刻的分析，就像影片本名“La piovra”（章鱼）所隐喻的那样，黑社会就像章鱼一样，已经把它的千万条触角深入渗透到了社会的各个角落，政界、金融界、司法界、工商业、新闻媒体，无论是官员、贵族、资本家还是平民劳动阶层，没有人能够彻底摆脱这种阴影，它已经和支持社会的所有骨架血肉相连，成为一个整体，根本无法斩断、分解或剥离。和《教父》不同，影片中正邪角色的分配势均力敌，但无论是正面人物还是反面人物，都被塑造得有血有肉，谁都有弱点，谁也都有其人性的一面。
《出生入死》原名,主题是正义一方如何与黑手党展开生死较量. 这个剧从1984开始播出.原剧名的意思是"章鱼".象征黑手党的触角伸向四方,难以斩除.又是一个极阴森恐怖的形象...

The Big Racket benefits immensely from a strong leading performance courtesy of Fabio Testi (star of What Have They Done to Solange). Testi's portrayal of the angry police officer is perfectly judged to fit the movie, and I don't think there is an actor who could be better suited to playing the lead in this movie. He heads a strong Italian cast, who all do well in bringing thei...
