A solidly entertaining crime film that doesn't have a lot of flare outside of the Jazzy soundtrack.

Mainly of interest for two things: it's an early italocrime which has more in common with film noir than poliziotteschi films of the 70's. It also has Franco Nero in an early role as the partner of Webber's hitman. My favorite part was the N.Y set beginning which follows Webber as he prepares his hit from a rooftop. Sadly the film then drops the aspect completely and concentrates on figuring out the identity of the antagonist. The film looks quite nice and has a Jazzy soundtrack.
