The new godfathers isn't a great polizia/gangster movie nor is it a terrible one either. if like me you spend your time tracking down every giallo and eurocrime from the 70's and early 80's you will have also seen far far worse and while not blown away its a decent 90 min fix. Set mostly in Naples its no Contraband (Fulchi's not the recent Marky Mark guff) but uses it and its other locations well, always cool to see how places looked in the 70's .The relationship between the Don and custom officer works pretty well the inclusion of the smuggler kids also adds to the character development seldom seen in these types of movies. It has its compulsory car chases and shootouts which are ok, its certainly no where near a Lenzi or Di Leo but if you have already done the best that this genre has to offer then this won't be a waste of your time. As in the title I came across this on Amazon prime with a whole host of other italian gangster, polizias , giallos and post apocalyptic movies, so fair play.
