Cop Game is an intriguing spy story, full of unexpected twists and turns that mislead suspects. As it happened in the classic films of the genre in the past. A well constructed thriller storyline. And the final twist, a surprise. The leading actors are well placed in the roles. The protagonist's jokes are funny and ironic, as was the fashion in the eighties (the film dates back to 1987. Released in 1988). Captivating the music. Too bad for the direction of Bruno Mattei who in this film is sloppy and hasty. It lacks the thriller atmosphere, tension, close-ups and details. Like the lipstick writing on the mirror. In short, the thriller is not his genre. A real missed opportunity, what a pity.

I liked the movie a lot and I hope as a fan of the first film (palermo Milan one way) that there is a third. The first film was more full of emotions, comedy and yellow, but perhaps too much melodrama, perfect and innovative in 1995, but now perhaps a little dated. The second film, "Milan Palermo Return" is technically superior to the shooting, scenic effects and narrative solutions. More detached in their feelings, no melodrama, and this is positive. I also find the closed narrative on two children, is a clever message, and positive as possible. Now I wonder, what will happen when the two children are grown? ... This could be the plot for the third film?. We hope so. Fragasso and Drudi, perfect team for: action, drama, mafia, horror, fantasy, thriller and more, with all the twists and turns of their stories, many psychological and political social, we hope to make a new return soon.

Fragasso and Drudi are not the last survivors of films years 70 d' police action or, is superficial to define them in this way. They invent the cinema every time, and go ahead experiencing various things, without never to remain attacked to the past. They are alive, I love this brace of the Italian cinema, that she remains free d' to express itself, daring, without never to yield to the mediocrity, puts into effect them. Sometimes they are thus ahead in the time, to be happens and appreciated, years after and I do not refer to the Troll2 phenomenon, but to "Skinhead "Teste Rasate", and "Palermo Milan One Way", loved from the public, but massacred from the critic then, the same critic who today of it speaks well. Fragasso and Drudi, are mind and spirit of a single body. The Drudi has a good intuition on history to carry on the screen, "Teste Rasate" , is born from she, like "Palermo Milan" and all the others to follow, history that then Fragasso spouse and realize from those great director who is, turning them with and not only, because he is oneness personality to turn, the spirit and head spouse, its films are not never cold, leaving like company, its unmistakable style. Fragasso Drudi forms an indestructible team. They love hard history with the social one, also in old the Horror, where the fantasy came mixed to the social one, with much irony, always thanks to the volcanics mind of the Drudi. Perhaps the film Virus (1980), is an example, is the first history, where it tells that, the scientists, in order to resolve the problem of the hunger of the third world, create a virus that transforms in cannibals the Africans, making to eat them between they till the extermination total, but then he escapes it to the virus of hand. (l' double irony of the Drudi in this history already obvious in dramatics problem) But speaking about Is TV movie "Blindati" (2000) is gone beyond every limit. Blindati it is pulp, it is fable, she is Gore, it is thriller, it is adventure it is the Mafia, it is the family and the power, the strong and political power of the families tied to the Mafia, ndrangheta,camorra-racket, sacred joined crown, to all the Mafias d' Italy. That they leave from the family of blood and the family that spouse and that follows itself to life in the ndrangheta. Blindati it has the features of the Greek tragedy, of the rest the Drudi has always put in written its and evidenced, the studies classics of Omero, and its love for they. Fragasso loves complex history between heart and violence. Fragasso loves the strong colors, repeats does not know alone to turn well, enough not to know to turn if he is not able to interpret history many complex, if it is not in degrees to direct the actors. Fragasso loves an exaggerated actors performance, lives and masculine. it succeeds to pull outside all from an actor with great energy. Blindati, to 10 years all' escape conserve a Young and only originality. Enough to see the fiction today that they make to cry, all equal and banal ones. Fragasso and Drudi go protect like a species in dead of extinction and not for the ties to the past, but for their intelligence, sensibility and creativity. Fragasso and Drudi, loved or hated without going of means, because they have canceled the means way from their DNA. Blindati it goes today seen and see again, "most current the monster and the killer hide in family." like in Blindati. To see also for the special effects, never seen before (the dive and fall of one of the siblings on the rock, in sea, without that the MDP never detaches) realized with intelligence and wisdom. Fragasso and Drudi are completed in all. The Drudi is a fan of resumption technology (computer graphic) of paranormal, fantasy and demonology, history that then that tells to Fragasso and it makes its. I have had the pleasure to see them to work with on the set and truly they form an only body and mind. They must continue to work thus. Blindati to see also for who it does not love the decided, colored cinema and hard, of sure will not never be bored, finding a beautiful surprise outside the equal ordinary all who by now reigns in TV. Because Blindati, even if it is dealt like a movie, it is a fiction for the TV of two heading all to see, with a cast stellar, from Stefania Sandrelli on all.
