This fast-paced thriller from the producer of Bullitt and The French Connection stars Roy Scheider as tough New York City cop Buddy Manucci. Manucci leads 'The Seven-Ups', an elite squad of undercover detectives known for their ruthlessly efficient tactics and their record of putting away criminals for a minimum of seven years. But when the group's integrity is called into question after being linked with a mob-related kidnapping, it is up to Manucci to hunt the real culprits and restore the reputation of his squad.

English A now almost forgotten but really excellent old school police thriller. Roy Scheider was still going from film to film as a a-list star, with a face not yet disfigured by plastic surgery. The story is straightforward and dark, in the tradition of the best parts of Dirty Harry, and there’s also a car chase that equals or even surpasses in intensity the legendary ones in Bullitt or The French Connection. Some scenes are staged so originally (the car wash robbery, the interrogation in the hospital) that I have never seen anything like it in any other film. And that is appreciated. (13/04/2014)
