Blood & Diamonds Blu-ray Screenshots (Patreon)

Decidedly average Italian crime thriller from Fernando Di Leo, a  slow-developing story about a mafia henchman who went to prison for five  years who believes his crime boss set him up in the heist. Now free, he  takes his revenge instead of walking away with the millions in diamonds  he's stashed.

Lives by a strange code of  honor, leading to a ridiculous moment when instead of shooting the man  hired to kill him, throws the gun away and fights him fist-to-fist to  the death. The stone-faced protagonist plays it so flat he practically  comes off as a robot.

Claimed 4K  restoration, but it looks filtered to me with spotty detail and rampant  softness in many scenes. Typical trash Italian mastering job licensed  out to 88 Films. Not particularly film-like and has a little ringing.

Nice packaging, however.
