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!
相当老套的传记电影。冗长、沉闷、废话太多。主角不是大小威，而是她们的父亲；重点也不是网球运动，而是家庭、种族。
#2022.92#中规中矩，黑人敏感；有这样压迫感的父亲，姐妹俩真听话…没反叛过吗？
威尔·史密斯的表演确实加分，至于颇受争议的教育理念，你看人家孩子都没什么大意见
三星半。每次看体育片都会被燃到然后继续躺平做废柴。
本片的主角不是曾称霸网坛的大小威廉斯姐妹，而是她们的父亲理查德威廉姆斯，正是他从孩子小的时候就开始的策划，充分发挥了孩子们本身就具有的天赋，在克服了包括严重的种族歧视等等的困难后才取得了后来的巨大成功，他可以说是一位充满智慧（或者叫狡猾）的策略大师。
感觉每一个成功的美国黑人爹都是威尔史密斯。
这位操控一切如“国王”般的虎爸告诉你，万事都要沉着冷静，一切都在掌控计划中…面对100万刀要不屑一顾保持头脑清醒才有可能赢得1200万刀。
套路痕迹有点明显 但是good entertainment
那段Richard跟大威说小时候自己碰了白人的手，被他们胖揍一顿，可他一回头，自己的父亲已经跑了，我不是个完美的父亲，但我绝对会在任何时候站在我孩子的身后，去保护他们。就这一段，让前面的控制狂父亲一下子被人理解了。
大小威的伟大无需赘言。 小威几乎就是女网的goat 黑人的超强爆发力确实让两姐妹受益良多。也很难得有个这样有远见的爸爸。
平庸老套，充斥着陈词滥调的学院派传记片，不过史皇的表演值得一座今年的奥斯卡影帝🏆
有些位置以為Will Smith是Idris Elba
这是个父亲专制统治下的黑人鸡娃家庭，父亲自尊心过剩，一心指望女儿们出人头地，过程却控制欲十足，各式“嘴脸”，标榜为了家人，却忘记尊重。人物从头到尾没啥大变化，他也未真正为家庭做过妥协（让女儿参赛、暂缓签商务可不算妥协），最后却获得“国王理查德”的美名。
在某种程度上呼应了《柏林苍穹下》当孩子还是孩子的引语，杰西的形象塑造实在太好了，不仅仅是儿童的纯洁，还有无理、狡黠、奇观、脆弱，是每个与孩子相处的成年人都要理解的形象。电影的黑白也许为了情绪吧，但整体其实有股乐观的力量？孩子们对于严肃话题的看法，积极又正面，好像讽刺着成年的世界，然而电影透出的成年世界的无奈与悲观却又如此深刻，确实是极其矛盾的地方。还有很多地方拍的都像影片要结束了，然而并没有，导演的节奏？
我们最大的敌人其实是我们自己。
以为是一部望女成凤的心急父亲最终发现真正的成功源自热爱的故事。演着演着又感觉像一个以爱之名，但控制欲极强的老爸最终学会放手的爱的故事。可到了结尾还是落脚在了一个圆满的美国梦上，并强调了理查德的计划完美实现。当然故事确实很打动人，尤其爸爸在女儿落败之刻回到看台，呼应了他永不逃避的承诺。只是看完觉得，成千上万的父母想必都制定过“理查德计划”，甚至未尝不一样逼孩子努力，只是最终被讲述的是那万里挑一的幸运儿。
Why are you alone? I mean, who cares? 怎么会有这么迷人的电影
中规中矩的名人传记，角度有些巧妙，避开了正面写大小威的成长史，而是对准了她们那个鸡娃的爹，感慨于欲戴王冠，必承其重，放之四海而皆准，但电影也说了出人头地更重要的一些因素：做人要稳，路子要野！
开头看有点儿像《当幸福来敲门》的意思。好多运动明星大神背后都要有坚持不懈的父母。今年奥斯卡鸡汤略多。
看后细想，Richard确实也算作一个King了，掌控人生美其名曰普就光明大道，自我专制还要诉一声我很辛苦。说电影政治正确其实也不对，这不就把一个黑人角色写的令人生厌吗？（不是
