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.
如果你对故事情节不熟悉，没看过原版。它会以意想不到的方式给你带来惊喜，这将是一部带有疯狂动作元素的犯罪片。
死了也能解锁稍微有点惊悚，出轨闺蜜老公真是烂梗 。。。
几个亮点：几经反转的结局、QueenB演技在线、新认识了阿拉伯帅大叔
这个剧本相当的硬，翻拍好多次了，还是看的津津有味
搞了半天就这么…不过还好女主有脑子看了不会生气..
中规中矩看到开头猜到结尾，三颗星给熟悉的Queen B和熟悉的斯普利特。
前面铺垫有点长，结束得有点太突然。后半段逐渐喜剧。
意外的观影心情舒畅 而且竟然会想起黄国骏先生 挺台北的 摄影可以 陈以文老师和白只一如既往的狗官与鲁蛇嫖客 还记得我完全是为了小犬才来的吗
韩国电影《走到尽头》法国版，虽然故事一样，但是法国黑警形象更符合气质。
又确认了一遍片头发现原来是A 42 Production 这才对嘛 对不起错怪A24了。
画廊女主选角OK 剧情单薄甚至有些单调 但人生有些片断就是这样 无厘头又有些乏味 但又不得不过下去。
一面說著“不想一個人”，一面唸著“leave me alone”，導演終了也沒能解釋清楚背道而馳的中英文片名如何在電影裡成為一體，沒能為角色們勾勒出清晰的心理動機，所有的一切行為都只是行為而已，觀眾無法相信更無法投射情感。范少勛太乖了，還乖得慫慫的，沒有台客的野性和性張力，要代入邱澤、鄭人碩、李鴻其或者劉冠廷才能成立的角色，溫貞菱意外地靈了一把，比《陽光普照》的提名來得合理得多，和納豆的對手戲是全片最好看的，唯一彼此都能接住戲還有火花的，而莫允雯對比之下就是一根木頭。
虽然剧情很俗套，但是看的过程中节奏也挺紧凑的（渣男真恶心，死到临头还说人家喜欢他
很一般啊，后面蛮乌龙的。还以为那个房主or司机会是最后的大boss。。。。
荡妇罪有应得，还连累好朋友……这叙利亚人竟然是个好人……
这个剧本就真的很瞎 正常人不能有这么蠢 Queen B下次能好好选剧本吗
拍这种题材镜头还扭扭捏捏，借位借得像内地躲审查的导演们（连打戏也是假得离谱的借位），就很没有信服力。
新词儿autopsy 除了看看美女帅哥 克罗地亚景色和片尾曲不错 其他挺尴尬的😅
没什么意思，这样的片子我也能拍，可惜这边不让。
女主要感谢房东，虽然房东确实缺乏正义感，不然她可能永远无法知道那一夜发生了什么
