Review of High Crime

High Crime (1973)
8/10
Nero vs. the drug traffickers
13 August 2022
This is a great Franco Nero flick that is almost as good as my favorite Nero and Castellari combo "Street Law." The plot consists of Nero chasing the mob and being caught in-between a mob war as competing factions struggle for power. There are cool scenes like a motorcycle attack, people getting smacked and run over by cars, and gunfights with Peckinpah-esque squib action and slow motion bodies falling. A tad confusing with all the players and Italian names, but all the while very exciting. Nero is great as a steaming angry cop and so is Rey as a sick and possibly dying mob boss. Good characters, intriguing plot, and lots of action make a great film.
