Street Law (1974) ***1/2

Street Law (aka Il Cittadino Si Ribella) (1974) is an above average poliziottesco from director Enzo G. Castellari. Star Franco Nero, who tends to act BIG in most of his roles, goes a little too over the top at times, but he's still very good at portraying a man pushed to his limits, yet largely inept at doling out justice (Paul Kersey he is not) when the police fail to satisfy his thirst for vengeance. Street Law is propelled by two outstanding theme songs by Guido and Maurizio De Angelis (1, 2) and two intense action sequences that bookend this great vigilante film.
