Hits the ground running and never backs off until an ending that is disappointingly diffuse. (Review of Original Release)Full Review

TV Guide

Ricky Tognazzi's La Scorta topped the Italian box office charts for weeks, thanks to its skill in capturing the country's current political climate in an entertaining action film format. (Review of Original Release)Full Review

But exciting as La Scorta might be, it is at heart a conventional thriller that breaks no new genre ground.Full Review

Ultimately, La Scorta is a tight, competent but rather inconsequential thriller. It's diverting, but thin. (Review of Original Release)Full Review

Hal Hinson
Washington Post

Tognazzi's use of public spaces, streets, and offices is three-dimensional and exciting in a Michael Mannish way, and Ennio Morricone's all-bass-register piano score keeps things nervous. But La Scorta suffers from an anemic plot pulse-you could say the judge's bodyguards did their job too well, because nothing much happens-and the anticlimax is as dull as it is pessimistic.Full Review
