Leonard Mann is Inspector Murri, a very complex man is many ways and definitely an anti-hero. This man, though passionate about what he believes in, is very clearly flawed. You get mad at him, you root for him, and you identify with him. There is one aspect of his life in which he is extremely forthright and successful… his career as an officer. He’s the captain of a special crime squad made up of highly skilled individuals trained for nearly every eventuality. Two of these men are caught off guard during an unexpected kidnapping by a group of machine-gun wielding extremists and are killed in the midst of the ensuing car chase. This event sends the special squad into action in a huge way. Murri becomes a driven man, constantly risking his life as he pursues the truth; a truth that reaches higher than he could have imagined and counting on assistance from is not something that’s found to be as dependable as it should be. When the blood of the innocent begins to run in the streets Murri changes into an ice-cold, steely, walking incarnation of vengeance! Unstoppable and single of purpose, he will find the truth… no matter what the cost! And you can be sure that in the end the price paid will be great! This masterpiece should be considered required viewing for Italian crime fans. Mann’s performance is absolutely outstanding in a film that is able to be suspenseful, inspiring, intense, surprising, violent, moving, and damn exciting all at the same time. I sincerely hope that some sort of soundtrack release is planned for the future because Paolo Vasile’s musical contributions to this film are nothing short of outstanding. Make-up is credited to Giuseppe Ferranti. A personal favorite of ours!
