La Banda Del Trucido

It’s a five bottle movie.

Don’t worry, there is probably a B on that bottle.

We told you so.

They really pulled out all the J&B stops for this movie, including the price.

Fans of Italian crime flicks will appreciate this.

Verson Jetorix “AKA The Rascal’s Gang, Dirty Gang, Destruction Force. No matter what you call it, Stelvio Massi’s half-hearted, half-breed cop thriller was not worth the time to watch – in my opinion. Luc Merenda’s commissioner seems tired and uninvolved. On the other hand, Tomas Milian, who wrote his own scenes, could be in a different, annoying movie altogether, and I wish he had been. Its good points are a familiar cast and a plethora of J&B bottles.”

Luc Merenda eyeballs the multi-shot of J&B as soon as he walks in.

J&B classes up the joint.

The bottle every robber dreams of finding.

Two bottles of J&B classes up even this scary clown joint.

Now to relax and watch a Maurizio Merli movie.  (Somehow I can never picture Luc Merenda sitting around watching TV.)

Let’s hope he hasn’t torn the room apart looking for J&B.

Verson Jetorix: “Cop Luc Merenda’s investigation leads him into dangerous political territory. Sergio Martino’s crime film has serious matters on its mind but still manages to entertain.”

Verson Jetorix: “A dark horse in the Italo-crime stakes, this baby came through with flying (in slow motion) colors. Right up there with the best Maurizio Merli or Franco Nero action thrillers.”
