Very enjoyable crime film, I did find it confusing at times what exactly was going on. And why was everyone so worried in the car wash before anything happened? Some profanity but besides this a clean film. It's worth a watch, imo.

The actually is not a 73 Pontiac Ventura But is a early 1974 there is a big difference between the two. the care was redesigned in 74. Hopefully someone from IMDb would check it out on google or in a Pontiac Book.I know the film was made in 73 but the car is a 74.

Damn! The chase sound track and the script for the chase scene is ripped off topknot-to-toenail from Steve McQueen's much better pursuit sequence in "Bullit". You've even got the same actor driving the killer's car and a shotgun blast from his confederate takes off the hero's hood in both movies. Nevertheless, my favorite insult is when Roy Schneider is ripping and dipping through the streets of NYC to the classic sounds of McQueen's '68 GT Mustang's growls, his automatic transmission shifter is column mounted and in PARK! Harrumph! "Some people believe it's Bolivian bandits." "Others think it is the Banditos Yan-kees" "If they move, kill 'em!" Boston Strong! Go Sox!

This 70s police movie by the same director as the French Connection is worth a watch...Some clever kidnappers go after gang related targets...crooked bondsmen in this case. They pretend to be under cover cops when they nab their victims---. An undercover cop group is ultimately investigated by the police force who think this group (the seven ups) might be involved in this. The action comes when the seven ups clear up their name.Good standard entertainment and a good car chase...as one reviewer put it no subplots no sex the only female in the entire movie an old gangsters wife who is threatened while the undercover cops seek to prove their innocence and catch the real kidnappers. No PC garbage no gimmicky weapons...just a good solid police action story.Great car chase with Pontiacs including a Ventura II a Nova name tag clone.This movie probably deserves about an 8. I give a 7 to decent entertaining movies nothing exceptionally good or bad... a 6 and below to formula stuff. A 1 to PC garbage pseudo intellectual art films and so forth.RECOMMEND
