Luca(Luc Merenda) is a street wise card shark who ends up working for the mafia, but gets into trouble when he falls for the boss's son's girlfriend Marie Luise.
A very enjoyable film indeed by director Sergio Martino who is one of my favorite directors of Italian giallos and action films. All the actors are very good too with nice chemistry betweem Luca and Marie Luise, who is actress Dayle Haddon from Flash gordon.
The only things i didn't like about the film was the soundtrack which sounded a bit comical and goofy at times, and the downbeat ending. but apart from that it is excellent and combines a good story with action and romance. and i rate it 79.5 out of 100.
