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.
手术是新的性爱，吃塑料是新的反抗，打开自己是老一辈的艺术家。
当世界重回保守主义时代的时候，我们更加需要大卫·柯南伯格的激进与先锋。《未来罪行》更像是柯南伯格对于“肉身机器”的未来书写，身体的欲望逐渐被快感取代，手术变成一场肉身的自慰，身体的舞台化展示成为集体高潮的仪式，改造身体同时也是主宰身体，进而主宰对身体的革命认知。冰冷死寂的肉体，因为那一滴眼泪，而充满了哲学的诗意。
性、暴力、欲望，电影以及艺术无非就那么点事
kinky……你这让我说什么好，还是袁老说的：吃得太饱。1080P 22/06/21
有关主题的浅薄思考：一个疼痛被消灭的世界，好像并不美好的样子。
很少看到一个电影中，人体器官像玩具一样摆来摆去，而这一切就发生在人类失去痛觉同时也失去意义与希望的未来。人类的进化似乎走向了一个迷惘的交叉点，有人抗拒变化，而更多的是拥抱与接受。有意思的是不知是器官的狂野生长推进了人类的演化，还是人类希望进化的信念促进了器官的生长。片子的设定怪异而新颖，特别是夜幕下报废的轮船象征着曾经的文明不复存在甚至出现了倒退，不过这一次拯救我们的不是英雄，而是我们从未意识到却始终联系最亲密的身体。美术和音乐非常NB，i don't like "Titane",but i love this one.
像是一场细腻而丰富的前戏之后，进行了一场味同嚼蜡且转瞬即逝的性生活，并且伴随着诡异的古典音乐。
当没有痛苦的伤害变成表演，手术的过程变成做爱，我们的生活还剩下什么？
(啊 怎么越降越低了 拉一点点分
的活动的一致，只能被看作是并合理地理解
陆陆续续看完了，我这低俗的品味，电影本身应该有些东西，但除了概念化真看不出别的了。
这个脑洞真不是一般人有的，怪异，不适，大受震撼，这种未来概念又能被理解。这部电影可以看作是艺术与死亡最直观解读，艺术的灵感与器官的生长，艺术创作与身体解剖，切除器官与性爱的表达，艺术创作的疼痛，都很直观地表现出来。只不过非常有嘲讽意味的是，这种表演艺术迟早会把所有的器官掏空，直至死亡。身体变成一种表演和消费的奇观，生命的意义只有虚空。
很想知道贺建奎的基因剪辑宝宝们现如今到底怎么样了！？片子让我很困扰的一点是，维果，一个在木兰花“催产床“控制下时不时长出奇怪器官的人，怎么能声称Lang（一具被改造过的躯体）“发明”了一个拥有自然生成的塑料消化系统的孩童是一个疯狂的想法？？？casting太不可🈲，本来就很干很单薄的幽默全被这些so called star拖累
虽然内核还是柯南伯格式的科技带来人的异化，但是依然好看
全程只有murmur，听不懂也没字幕，不知道是不是只有我们这一场是这样的。
内脏暴露狂，额。令人难以理解的审丑艺术。
肉体恐惧上升为肉体崇拜。壳是后期作品（《大都会》《星图》），核是早期作品（《感官游戏》《欲望号快车》《录像带谋杀案》），解刨具像化的 “内在美” ，享受创伤和痛苦带来的快感制造未来的新型性爱和人类。在这个时代还能看到保持自己独有风格的电影实属难得，老爷子再接再厉！
我们装饰自己 我们掩盖自己 我们暴露自己 我们加工自己 我们吃下自己
看不懂但大受震撼系列。原本看到“大卫·柯南伯格·新器官·切割·行为艺术”等字样时兴奋不已，以为将是一场充满动感·重口味的视觉之旅，可观看时昏昏欲睡是怎么回事？镜头简洁克制极少拍越肩关系视听冷静到“无聊”是怎么回事？是刻意反漫威的实验探索吗？不懂·懵逼…直到看到豆友们的影评才知道自己多么肤浅，智商不够不要紧，别看不懂就骂，还是要多加学习才行啊！#说了什么又什么没说的影评啊#
只想说 非常柯南伯格 顺便讽刺了一下当代艺术
