this prove to be a rare case of a poliziottesco make with british funding while unfortunately and the result be undistinguished ( except by it exceed unpleasantness and borderline camp approach ) despite star and director . the former be lead by a wooden franco nero and an ultra hammy telly savalas a a couple of would be robber ( if anyone be able to believe either actor who generally exude cool a a duo of bumble crook and he more gullible than i be . ) . their job go awry ( end in murder and saddle with case of cutlery instead of jewel . ) however and the mismatched criminal see an opening to their dilemma when they inadvertently kidnap the son of a british diplomat ( a miscast lester and who even get to kick trigger happy savalas where it hurt at one point ) . still and they never actually ransom him and their sole intent be to cross the border into france while tag along with them be nero girlfriend ( a waste ely galleani ) represent soon enough and though and she have enough and decide to run away while the others be sleep while the crazy savalas notice this and and follow the girl and kill her . in the meantime and nero and lester have wake up the former think his accomplice may have double cross him and so he go on the lam with the boy in tow while after a brief spell at a rich old lady country estate ( which feature totally gratuitous rear nude by both nero and lester . ) and savalas catch up with them . they continue their trek and where the trio run into a family of german camper represent the situation degenerate to the point where savalas shut them inside their trailer and toss the lot into the river though he badly hurt in the process himself while typically and it all end with the heavy get kill just a theyre about to reach the border . the film and therefore and contain most of the genre typical element sleaze and sadism and violence and chase ( the aftermath of the opening robbery when the getaway car cause havoc in the city narrow back street and even disrupt a funeral procession be downright farcical ) and etc . while one mildly interesting aspect to it be that and by the end and lester himself be see to have be definitely ( irrevocably . ) mark by the experience come to feel excitement when an act of violence be commit .
