Fernando Di Leo's "Milano Calibro 9" is an out-and-out masterpiece of Italian Crime cinema and, in my opinion, one of the most astonishing crime stories ever told. The first film in Di Leo's excellent 'Milieu' trilogy, "Milano Calibro 9" was followed by "La Mala Ordina" (aka. "Manhunt", also 1972) and the brilliant "Il Boss" (1973). The three films are not connected story-wise, but all three are excellent, and highly realistic portrayals of organized crime. As far as I am concerned "Manhunt" is (allthough excellent) slightly inferior to this one and "Il Boss" which both stand out as absolute all-time highlights of crime cinema. "Milano Calibro 9" is the best of them all, a film that is astonishing in all aspects, be it the ingenious plot that, apart from a compelling story and clever twists, includes social criticism, the performances, the gritty atmosphere and suspense or the brilliant score. I can hardly find the right words to express my admiration for this masterpiece which easily ranks among the greatest Gangster flicks ever brought to screen.
Gastone Moschin stars as Ugo Piazza, a tough and elliptical ex-convict who has just been released from prison. Immediately after his release, Ugo is approached by members of the Milan mob lead by the irascible gangster Rocco (Mario Adorf), as they suspect him to be responsible for the disappearance of a large sum of money belonging to their boss, an American (Lionel Stander) who controls the organized crime in Milan...
"Milano Calibro 9" is a film that delivers an astonishingly realistic mood of the underworld like hardly another. The intriguing storyline goes in hand with interesting characters, raw atmosphere, suspense and breathtaking action, social criticism and brutal violence. The film is simply stunning from the beginning to the end, which is even intensified by the brilliant score, a collaboration of the famous composer Luis Enríquez Bacalov and the Italian Progressive Rock band Osanna. Ugo Piazza must be one of the most charismatic gangster characters ever in cinema, and Gastone Moschin was the prefect choice for the role. Moschin delivers a brilliant performance, and the rest of the cast is also great. Mario Adorf is irascible like a rabid dog as the ferocious gangster Rocco, a role that fits him like a glove. The great Lionel Stander fits perfectly in his role of the American Mafia Don.
The two cop characters in the film are played by two of the greatest regulars of Italian genre-cinema, Luigi Pistilli and Frank Wolff (who committed suicide before the film was released). The ravishing Barbara Bouchet is astonishing and incredibly sexy in the role of Ugo Piazza's stripper girlfriend. Bouchet is both a stunning beauty and an excellent actress and this is doubtlessly one of her most memorable roles. This is also a political film and director Di Leo embedded a lot of social criticism about topics like corruption. This film simply has everything one can possibly desire in cinema. Films like "Milano Calibro 9" are the reason why I love cinema. This is an absolute masterpiece in all regards and, without exaggeration, one of the greatest Crime flicks ever made! The ingenious opening scene alone is more memorable than most films get in two hours.
电影开始后5分钟就不能入场了，那就偷溜进去看圆月映花都吧
前面二十多分钟想弃，后面渐入佳境，甚至还有点感动
太真诚太真挚，变化的画幅透露出一些私人的情感。关注到电台女主播这个角色，她就像另一个轨迹的女主，只不过因为性格不同二人有各自的结局，她的悲剧也暗示了全片结尾的基调。整部看下来都觉得非常舒适也不会觉得无聊，从剧情到表演都很自然，好久没碰到这么喜欢的电影了。（一直觉得女主好眼熟原来是女性瘾者的主演hhhh
如果女儿再多描述一点点或许更好。画幅的改变好惊喜。当电影检票员，然后免费溜进电影院看电影好好。女主很有魅力。
与无法触及人心的自我感动式讽刺说教。
拼湊了一堆議題，不乏自我感覺良好；話劇式的表現話趕話到讓人犯睏；一堆平庸的演員，真正能看的演出大概只有張本煜和出場沒幾分鐘的余皚磊。
只是确实执行力不行。剪辑乱且碎，影响质感为0。另外，希望现在的国产片都能对自己有点数，没事不要动不动就超过2小时的时长。要懂得取舍。
“我叫你爸，你打我马，你这样对吗？”
前30分钟很“报告老板”，本以为子墨导演的处女作电影只是这样了，没想到，从半小时后开始，剧情展开逐渐精彩！娱乐圈乱象，影视圈潜规则，还有故意避而不谈的那些隐喻的剧情……简直太精彩！当快看到结尾时，有两句台词给我很深的触动：大概意思是“你知道最可怕的是什么吗？是记忆，记忆就像火苗，只要有一点儿，便有变成燎原之势的可能”；另一句是“我们好不容易知道的真相，难道就这样让它结束了么？”（我觉得很多暗藏的隐喻升华了这部电影的主旨，希望如电影内在想表达的一样，有些记忆可以被人记住）另外，个人觉得，值得二刷，里面几个演员的演技都很棒！
“不寻常且脆弱的，就像你一样。”“每一次我们都只是外来者，是夜旅人。”
陈思成，从唐探1~唐探3，一直延续着厌女的贬低女性的价值观，和镜头。一个母亲给女儿弄面包，是通过陪睡面包店老板的镜头都能拍出来，陈思成想表达啥只有他自己清楚。一群男人戏，女性戏份少却处处展现强大的力量！！没有低俗的玩笑，没有黄色的段子，没有贬低女性的恶俗镜头，依然能讲好故事。看，年龄从来不是限制，年级轻轻，导演很优秀。演员，很给力。这样的电影，该扬名立万
“我们曾经瞥见的，我们的碎片，会由我们的梦来滋养”。雨天给自己的礼物，深夜听着雨声自己看时仿佛回到南方暖光灯下的小小书桌旁，手边放着日记本和热茶。
太喜欢巴黎了，温柔的旧人，破碎的新生，是漫长岁月的落幕美学，我爱过，即永恒。
向往自由的灵魂 有烟吗？想抽一根了 就是，尽管我已经是两个孩子的母亲，尽管我已接近五十，但我还是拥有自我，有重来一次的机会和勇气！仍然热爱生活！仍然充满希望！
在寒冷的冬日夜晚呼出一口哈气时被人紧紧握住双手。也想在美丽清冷的城市里体验人生的碎片。
要求不高，如果中国每个月能上映这样一部类型片，知足了。
太好看了！怀旧80年代的巴黎，电影叙事太让人舒服了，看完下来就有种四平八稳的感觉。依旧是非常的法式浪漫，普通人的浪漫生活。刚开始看男主莫名觉得很眼熟，后来想起来是一个porn演员lol
编剧太高估自己的能力了，剧本会与凶杀案其实融合不到一起去。目前看过把谜面设计为动机而非凶手本身的悬疑作品，只有东野成功了。
只是确实执行力不行。剪辑乱且碎，影响质感为0。另外，希望现在的国产片都能对自己有点数，没事不要动不动就超过2小时的时长。要懂得取舍。
茫茫黑夜行，你我皆过客。很细腻温柔的一部电影，像雨夜搭巴士，迎着斜阳回家，晚风中饮酒，导演很擅长营造这种略带忧伤的诗意，通过一个普通的故事串起这些散落的意向，很美好。
