I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.

I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

Admittedly "Poliziotti Violenti" won't ever get listed in any "top 10 greatest Poliziotesschi" rankings (or top 20, for that matter) but nevertheless I'm still awarding it with a generous rating 7/10, simply because it plentifully features all the things that I seek and love about this genre! For starters, the film doesn't star one but two heroic macho protagonists. The stoic-faced Henry Silva and the groovy Antonio Sabato form a surprisingly good duo, especially when they're ravaging the city on borrowed motorcycles or visiting sleazy transvestite clubs! Furthermore is "Poliziotti Violenti" low on complex plot twists and overlong dialogues, but rich on virulent shootouts, ruinous chases and gratuitous violence. Silva stars as a fanatic military major who gets transferred to a desk job after bringing too many sensitive army issues to the surface. One day, he prevents a kidnapping on the street from happening and notices that the hoodlums were using machine guns of which he knows for certain they are only intended for military usage. Since his own supervisors are corrupt as hell, Silva teams up with unorthodox police inspector Sabato in order to find out who's supplying deadly guns to street gangs. "Poliziotti Violenti" contains a few very ingenious scenes, for example how to rob a jewelry store with an ambulance, as well as some perplexing moments like senior citizens beating a purse- snatcher to pulp! In spite of the astounding Silvio Dionisio appearing topless a few times, the number one reason why I'll remember "Poliziotti Violenti" is because of the excessively brutal collateral damage. Italian directors are notorious for butchering random bystanders in their movies, but this one goes quite far. Dozens of innocent people are gunned down in drive-by shootings or even savagely run over by cars. The bad guys even blow up an entire restaurant in an attempt to eliminate our two heroes (but naturally kill everybody in the restaurant except them)

"Poliziotti Violenti" aka. "Crimebusters" (1976) is a decent enough, though in no way outstanding example for the Italian Poliziottesco, which mainly profits from the great Henry Silva in one of the two leading roles. The ultimate bad-ass Silva, doubtlessly one of the greatest 70s cult-cinema actors, particularly in the Poliziotteschi-genre, starred in two of the all-time greatest Italian Crime flicks, Fernando Di Leo's "Il Boss" (1973) and Umberto Lenzi's "Milano Odia: La Polizia Non Può Sparare" ("Almost Human", 1974); "Poliziotti Violenti" sadly cannot compete with the greatness of these aforementioned films, and yet it is an entertaining film that is well worth watching for my fellow fans of Italian cult-cinema. It must be said, of course, that director Michele Massimo Tarantini, who is probably most famous for the Cannibal-flick "Nudo e Selvaggio" ("Cannibal Ferox 2", 1985) isn't as accomplished a filmmaker as the brilliant genre-icons Di Leo and Lenzi; yet he made an action-packed, bad-ass and, which is most important, fast-paced and entertaining film here.Silva plays the tough Army major Altieri, who teams up with the hard-boiled cop Tosi (played by regular leading man Antonio Sabato) in order to crush a gang of arms-dealers and corrupt officials... The storyline is pretty standard stuff, with little originality and few surprises. It is well-executed however. The action-scenes and cinematography are well done, and the score is cool (though, again, nothing special for the high Poliziotteschi standards). The stone-faced Henry Silva is fantastic and super-tough in his role as always. Antonio Sabato also fits very well in the other lead of the tough cop here. Sabato starred in numerous Poliziotteschi including Umberto Lenzi's "Milano Rovente", and he arguably had his finest hour in Lenzi's fantastic Giallo "Sette Orchidee Macchiate Di Rosso" ("Seven Blood-Stained Orchids", 1972); he once again delivers in this one, though it is, of course, Henry Silva who steals the show. Regular Italian genre-beauty Silvia Dionisio ("Nude Si Muore", "Blood For Dracula", "Paura In Citta", "Murder Obsession",...) makes a pretty and likable female lead. The film is full of violent action, though not particularly brutal for genre-standards. Overall, "Poliziotti Violenti" is gritty enough and well worth watching for my fellow Italo-Crime fans, though there is a lot in the field that is far more recommendable (such as all films by Fernando Di Leo, Umberto Lenzi, Damiano Damiani and Enzo Castellari, for starters). What I did find surprising about this film, though, is how often the good guys' negligence basically causes the bad guys to kill innocent bystanders. Overall, "Poliziotti Violenti" is certainly no genre-masterpiece, but it's still an entertaining film for Italian cult-cinema fans.

I cast my mind back to my youth in the late 70's when it comes to this movie. I remember when "The Movie Channel" was the only game in town and this movie was in the monthly rotation. I also recall my brother and I, killing ourselves laughing at the one liners - not even realizing that the actors' voices were dubbed. The fight scenes in it were action packed (reminded me of the OOF! and BAM! of a good Batman episode) and the plot had enough in it to keep a 9 and 12 year old glued to the TV with rapt attention. We watched it so many times busting a gut laughing and quoted the same funny lines from it when it wasn't on....That having been said, it is a bad movie, bad enough not to buy or rent, but if it ever showed up on TV again (probably would have to be the 3am "Insomniac Theatre" or something similar) I would have to tune in for just a moment....just to cast myself back to a simpler time...Most of the comments in this forum are subjective things anyway and my review of this movie is no different - I wouldn't recommend this film to anyone - if it was made today it would receive a scathing review as unimaginative and goofy - but from a 9 year old's perspective, it was the most hilarious and entertaining thing a kid and his brother ever saw in their lives.....you had to be there to understand it...

Henry Silva plays a Army Major who teams up with a tough cop (sabato) to investigate of a series of crimes that used a army issued machine gun. Lots of car chase, and action centers in a standard Italian action film. Silva, who isn't dubbed is good as usual and Sabato is a little more low key than his usual performance. Recommended.
