action
Joe Caputo, an uncompromising New York police officer, was murdered; and in public it is more than a rumor that it was an action by the local mafia chief Malloy. Dan Caputo, the victim's son, comes to town to uncover the background of the death; a first murder attempt on him fails on arrival at the airport, but costs many innocent lives. The police officers Lieutenant Sharp and Captain Jeffrey are suspicious of Caputo, believing it was an accident; they warn against further investigation, as does his longtime friend Susan. However, Dan does not listen to them and has to hide from many captors and actively defend himself against a number of opponents. Finally he finds a supporter in the petty crook Duke; now they both find out that Jeffrey killed his father on behalf of Malloy. Daniel manages to destroy the entire gang and send the evidence of what is found to Sharp. Malloy's place is taken by Duke.

" Harsh thriller that depicts killing as an everyday occurrence; simple and boring. ”, found the lexicon of international films . “There is a clear effort to attract attention through traditional shootings, fighting and rude visits to disreputable areas; and the director stages it with his accustomed casualness. ", so" Vice "in" Il Domano ".
