There are few reasons to watch this well made action, thriller, heist, fun flick: 1) Awesome car chase in the streets of Prauge (Another reason to watch)that makes all those CGI look alike cry. 2) The restaurant scene which will make you want to eat those tasty looking dishes, while Omar Sheriff and Belmondo are having a witty dialog. 3) Belmondo over the top stunts, you have to see to believe. This guy was nuts alright. 4) Excellent as always, Ennio Morricone soundtrack. 5) The funny Ending.

If you are looking for a good 70's action fun, with some nice exotic places, with great car chase and good cast, go a head try it!

I would like to use this comment to encourage movie lovers that are still not familiar with Mario Bava work, to step in and give him a try. Blood and black lace is a proof that Bava is a mastermind in the art of cinema, getting influences from Orson Wells, Fritz Lang and other great directors which shape the cinema we see today. Blood and black lace is known as one of the first giallos ever made, and responsible for the big Giallo productions in Italy afterwords. In blood and black lace Bava increased his abilities of photographing woman closeups to a level of amazing beauty, his mastership in portraits is so clear in that movie. The story is not the best part of Blood.. but bava know how to tell this story in an imaginative way with many twists that will make you stay in your sit, and I am not getting into the murder set pieces which are so disturbing and violent even for today standards. So all you cinema lovers out there, if you want to get excited from something fresh and unique check Bava work, because bava was one of the best directors in the cinema history and time will surly tell.

There are 2 respected movies in the euro police movies that always shine above all the other great ones, the first one is in Fernando De Leo "La Mala Ordina", Part of his Milan trilogy films, with his extreme and fast paced chase that never let go and just keeps on going till the last brutal finish. The second one is blazing magnum's, which can be a very good lesson to all the action directors out there planing to do a one good chase sequence. There are 2 chases here, one in the beginning which is short but very efficient , and the second at the end, which you must see to believe, it got everything in it and more. I do urge you, the fans of this type of cinema to grab Blazing Magnumes if only for the chases that prove that you can do a bad acting movie with a simple thriller script, that still got some hard hitting sequences that shine overall. I can't finish without mentioning that the music is also a masterpiece in itself and it is always there at the right moment. If only Dark Sky/NoShame/Blue Underground or any other respected label will do us a favor and release a collector edition DVD, that would be fantastic!
