Kirandeep Yoder The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.

Ralf Thomas Siegel In my opinion, the ratings are somewhat unfair, possibly because they compare the film with current productions. The film is from 1976 and therefore should be measured at the standards of that time and here, I find, it still exceeds the average. The two main actors, Roger Moore and, more specifically, Stacey Keach, are the main reason for this. Some complain about the English dubbing. About this I can say nothing, but I can imagine that a bad dubbing can mess something, or all here. Well, the German Dubbing is very good, both protagonists have the well- known sync voices, Roger Moore, for example, from his James Bond films. Both act as buddies and complement each other excellently, just Keach's role brings loose the film excellently and humorously. The music is better than the beats from other Italian films of the 70s. Also the production and the existing budget is higher. I often read 'low budget film' but as mentioned before, compare it to the standard Italian classic flick and not with an James Bond Production. The two auto- action scenes are very well implemented, also the filming sites was well-considered. Surely we have here no top film belonging to the IMDb Top 250, but in my opinion synonymous not the superfluous film, which is only waste of time. It is a solid, versatile action tiller who can be given a chance. In German its called Abrechnung in San Francisco, meaning Last billing in SF, which suits much better than Street People. A weak 7, but a 7.

Comeuppance Reviews When a cross from a Sicilian church is shipped into San Francisco with a million dollars worth of heroin hidden inside, mafia don Salvatore Francesco dispatches his nephew Ulysses (Moore) to find the three thugs responsible. Ulysses then teams up with his race-car driving buddy Charlie (Keach). Charlie checks out all the seedy haunts and dives of San Francisco while Ulysses goes to Sicily for answers. When back together in SF, all hell breaks loose, as a series of double crosses and emotional flashbacks reveal the horrible truth.Maybe it's the presence of its two major stars, but this mafia yarn is pretty restrained. It's not nearly as sleazy/violent as it could have been or should have been. It seems that in the wake of The French Connection (1971) and The Godfather (1972), among others, all the many writers and directors involved in this project (one of which was Ernest Tidyman of Shaft (1971) and French Connection fame) tried to mash it all up and hoped Roger Moore would be the glue that held it all together. Sadly, that plan was as half-baked as the movie itself.Not to say that "Street People" is all that bad. There are some funny stereotypes, an enjoyable 70's atmosphere, nice San Francisco locations, Roger Moore is charming as the half British, half Sicilian cousin, and Stacy Keach looks like he's having fun. Keach gets off some great dialogue, not the least of which is: "I'm gonna spread the word that you're a turkey deluxe!" Keach pretty much steals the show, with his relaxed, fun-loving performance. The highlight of the movie, the "car test-drive" scene, succeeds mainly because of him. There's an impressive car chase towards the end, and some slow-motion emotional flashbacks with Bacalov's score at the climax of the film, and presumably the director(s) were, at the last minute, aiming for a Sergio Leone-like experience. It would have been better if it was all more cohesive.Released by American International Pictures (the original AIP) in the U.S., and released on video here on Vestron, "Street People" may be worth seeing for the chemistry of Moore and Keach, or for people that have seen a lot of 70's drive-in mafia flicks and want to see something else, but for casual viewers, it does leave something to be desired.For more insanity, please visit: comeuppancereviews.com

Woodyanders This strangely colorless film blends elements from several different genres -- Mafia pictures, drug deal features, your basic shoot 'em up actionfest, and a standard car chase romp, all tied together with a mismatched buddy crime-fighting duo -- into a bland mishmash that crucially fails to develop a flavorful distinction which could have allowed all the disparate bits and pieces to jell into a pleasingly coherent and enjoyable whole. Moreover, the unmistakably British Roger Moore is horribly miscast as a partly Italian lawyer who's assigned by a powerful mob capo to nail the three brutal thugs who smuggled a million dollars worth of smack into the country by hiding the dope inside a large wooden cross. Moore, assisted by jocular grand prix professional race car driver Stacy Keach (who gives a solid, lively performance that's much better than the insipid material deserves), pounds the pavement for the dirtbags and uncovers a series of double and triple crosses which lead to a shocking revelation of a grim secret stemming from Moore's shadowy past. Maurizio Lucidi's merely adequate direction remains resolutely workmanlike from start to finish, putting too much emphasis on dull chitchat during the opening and middle of the movie. In addition, the poky, erratic pace and a curious sense of unfortunate restraint prevents this picture from acquiring both the baroque style and trashy vitality it needs to seriously cook. However, things do finally come to life in the reasonably sound and exciting last half hour, with a rousing car chase and a few bloody shoot-outs enlivening the general tedium. Still, the humdrum script that was co-written by noted screenwriter Ernest Tidyman (who also penned "Shaft" and "The French Connection") and future "Grease" director Randal Kleiser, sticks too closely to run-of-the-mill predictable and unsurprising crime thriller conventions, thereby making this mediocre outing a strictly middling and passable time-killer at best.

silverauk This is really a movie which has lost its interest by the time. The actors just seem to drive around like in a mediocre American police-serial. When people are shot, it is by a killer who appears and disappears and is everywhere. When there is a pursuit on the road, by accident three big trucks try to drive Stacey Keach from the road. I prefer Mannix or Kojak. The mafia is typical but described without any details or exactitude. The story has no point and nobody could believe it. Roger Moore is not only a lawyer, he must be also something as an SAS-agent capable of killing any professional killer. Who believes that?
