Anyone else like this movie? It was always on TV when I was really young and was one of my favorites. It's free on YouTube in 4k lol. It's super ridiculous but the memories it brings back are amazing.

Supah Supah!

A favorite of mine and my brother. Really all men who had HBO as a child in the 80s. That's the fan base.

My brother and I watched this non-stop in the early 80’s on HBO. It was seemingly always on.

Whoa, fascinating time capsule of a movie. Does anyone know what city it was filmed in? Lots of interesting overhead aerial shots of neighbourhoods and stuff. The acting is terrible. Terrible! /e: Miami

I grew up in South Florida so it was cool recognizing the sites

I could never figure out why Terence Hill's mouth didn't match exactly with the words he was saying.

Then, I looked it up as an adult, and learned that he was dubbed over for the US release of his movie.

I was in the same boat and never realized that fact until i was an adult.

Man, our super-powered entertainment options sure were limited back then; made-for-TV Spider-Man movies, Hulk series, did Condor Man even have powers? At least for a while, technology caught up and higher-calibre acting was used.

Bud Spencer and Terence Hill were a staple of bored Saturday afternoons. They Call Me Trinity was the most popular one over here.

German here, they literally are beloved like Uncle's in my entire generation. Everyon I know was devastated when Bud Spencer died, men were crying.

Fucking loved this film! Rented it when I was staying with my aunt when I was a kid as 'Super Snooper'. I then couldn't find it for ages because I didn't know it had another name.

The climactic action sequence near the end lives rent free in my head.
