Buddy Manucci is an NYPD investigator who runs a task force that targets criminals whose offenses will result in minimum sentences of seven years if convicted. Manucci's best informant, Vito Lucia, has double-crossed him by using his secret list of loan sharks to kidnap these men and hold them for ransom. When this plan results in the death of one of Manucci's men, he and his task force go to war with the city's criminal population, bending the law along the way to track down Lucia.

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.
