Live Like A Cop, Die Like A Man. 1976.

Two guys Fred and Tony work for a special branch in Rome and live on the edge of jobs that are dangerous.

This is the first time seeing this and had no idea what I was going into with this, from the start we are thrown into a bag snatching gone wrong and a good motorbike chase then back to the office and flirt with the secretary, nothing like a good chase to get your own motor running. All the way through I kept thinking this is like a Italian version of The professionals but with a feature film.

Mark Porel and Ray Lovestock play the two good guys who shoot first and talk later with Adolfo Celi playing their boss who seems laid back a bit and let them do their job. Ruggero Deodato is able to make a decent action crime thriller and does have his tendencies to keep the innocent must suffer routine in this. Would certainly watch this again.
