Very well done vicious revenge exploitation film, one of the most violent movies I have watched. There are some scenes and dialogues which are disturbingly harsh. However, camera work (at some moments influenced, together with music score, by Westers from that decade) and Carlos Mossy's direction are great. While all actors did well, Átila Iorio, Ivan de Almeida and Celso Faria (a former Spaghetti Western actor known in Italy as Tony Andrews) have particularly great performances. Celso Faria's character Nestor may be placed among the most hateful and disgusting villains in the history of cinema. The path of the leading character Roberto, played by Mossy himself, from a human rights defender (beginning the story with an excellent speech!) to a cold thraumatized man who takes justice with his own hands could lead to a dangerous outcome: the support of the widespread idea that "a nice bandit is a bad bandit". However, differently, for instance, from 2007 blockbuster Elite Squad, the present 70's production is cautious: it includes scenes that open spectators' eyes, such as the dialogue in the lynching scene, after the amazingly shot and edited chase footage.
