Three Top Rate Italian Crime Films

(5 out of 5 stars)
"A great collection featuring two excellent John Saxon films - The Cynic, The Rat and The Fist and Violent Naples (also starring Barry Sullivan). Rome Armed To The Teeth with Arthur Kennedy is the third film on disc 2. The star of all three is blonde leading man Maurizio Merli, who does a fine job all round. The supporting cast all turn in top performances and the U.S. performers all have their own voices, which is always a plus. All three films are excellent prints - wide screen and uncut.
Disc one features two full screen Jack Palance films - Mister Scarface and The Cop in Blue Jeans. These prints are just average, watchable if you are not fussy and Jack Palance has his own voice in both.
For my money disc two is the standout all-round. The price is also very good."
