I really don't think I can think of much very positive to write about this film. I suppose the poster is OK and Lili Carati as the lead's girlfriend is fine and takes her rape rather well. Maurizio Merli is not one of my favourite actors, I don't know whether he got fed up with the Franco Nero comparisons or got off on them, but he barely gets up the enthusiasm to bother to throw a punch in the right direction here. Some of the Madrid shots were nice, especially good to see the old station because when I was there they had just done the place up as some recreational/botanical garden place. It looked great but looked even better here with the old trains. There is a burst of action some two thirds of the way through but for the most part this is people chatting about what's got to be done and whose going to do it, or not.
