A gesù non piacciono i film pornografici

Non è "il Padrino". La famiglia non è santa. I rapporti tra mafiosi dello stesso clan non sono di rispetto assoluto. Non c'è rispetto delle tradizioni. Le donne si prendono a sberle senza fastidi.
Non è "il Padrino", è "il Boss".
E' Henry Silva che è spietato come non mai. Che con un lanciagranate fa esplodere una sala cinematografica privata in una delle scene iniziali più ... read more

A disappointment from Di Leo. A bit too talkative and wobbly poliziottesco. But what a striking face this Henry Silva is!

View all The Boss reviews

A bomb attack in a cinema in Palermo kills all the fellows of Attardi's clan a part from Cocchi. He immediately understands that the author of the bomb attack is Daniello from Don Corrasco's clan. Cocchi is determined to revenge. His actions, including the Corrasco's daughter kidnap, in a Palermo in which also the police is corrupted, will soon destroy the old equilibrium giving the way to an escalation of violence that won't save anyone. If Cocchi will survive to the mafia war he will be the new boss for sure.

"24.4. Henry Silvalla on alkuun erinomainen meno päällä, kun hän tekee kiväärikranaattihyökkäyksen pornoteatteriin ja alkaa sen jälkeen ammuskella äänenvaimennetulla pistoolilla. Tämän jälkeen elokuva tylsistyy ja koostuu pääasiassa keskusteluista, joiden dialogilla ei ole mitään oikeaa merkitystä. Tyly loppu ei toimi ihan samalla tavalla kuin trilogian aikaisemmissa osissa - alkaisikohan tässä vaiheessa ohjaajalla olla paukut käytettynä. "
