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.
前两幕也是套路满满，但到第三幕简直开了挂，感觉主创创作也是病猫变雄狮的过程。从经典港片中汲取了很多营养，尤其是那种很底层很现实主义的东西，它的成功或许比彩条屋和追光那些神怪和朋克来的更有意义。李白说过，祝你们成功！
支持一下国产动画，但故事实在太套路，不是我的菜。东亚作品总有这种“莫欺少年穷”的苦逼内核，总是对“今天你对我爱答不理，明天我让你高攀不起”的套路无比执迷。吃苦本身没有任何意义，人在苦难中学到的东西，在快乐中未必就学不到。
3.5星，前面的剧情差点意思，甚至可以抠出一个三室一厅，可以看到很多星爷电影的影子：主角的装扮、小人物、梦想的坚持、咸鱼精神等等，人物的皮肤质感细节表现都挺一般的，仿佛回到了十多年前的水平。但是中远景的风景还是说得过去的，最后二十分钟的决斗很燃，结尾的处理很精炼（不过好像《飞驰人生》、《八佰》都用过），有梦想就有希望。作为大战就在我家对面的荔湾湖公园，颇有感触。 / 2021.12.7 虹桥艺术中心
四星，但打个五星也不为过，广东地区大概会更亲切，景太过真实。这片应该会是十二月的黑马了吧。
只要熬过前半小时的一星抠脚趾，就会迎来后半程的亿星燃宇宙——狮半脸、挂狮头、化狮佛前——神来之笔，缪斯亲临，毋多言，辈可吹。愿你知晓，他没有坠入水中，魂即人，身可摧，魂不倒，他护灵魂屹立高处。愿你知晓，他不止赢得比赛，人即神，婵娟去，白狮归，他引生命飞跃凡尘。一部不折不扣「有味道」的电影，相信我，唢呐一起，没有人会问你为什么跪在影院里。愿你永不向现实低头，知晓挫折与苦难不是发生在你身上，而是为你而发生——为你去战胜它，而发生。
让不漂亮的普通人被注视，应该是它最大的价值之一，而不是遭受非议的原因所在。
一直偏好的水墨写意风，竟然在片头就惊现，对正片既有了期待也有一丝怀疑。当一只写实的猫跳到正片的脚踏车少年视角后，逐步被剧情牵动了，无论是场景还是配乐等细节，都透着浓郁的南粤之风，简单的嬉笑怒骂，泪流得稀里哗啦。即使反派的恶意有些脸谱化，贫困落后的窘境也许要退回几年才不觉浮夸，但终归是超出预期的燃呀！
浸染了周星驰和香港电影的庶民翻身基因，以及日本漫画的热血精魂，但留守的舞狮少年才是让本片独秀于林的核心，在一众科幻和神话题材中脱颖而出。开场伴着《道山靓仔》的少年穿梭于小镇的一段长镜头，结尾雄狮跃起后《莫欺少年穷》的前奏鼓点响起。两首歌首尾呼应堪称凤头豹尾，来自底层的生命力破壳而出。最后重生的雄狮现于佛陀，热血之后竟留下一丝禅意。影片后半段有无数泪点，但最让我破防的，是阿娟在离家去广州打工的公车上，响起椅子合唱团的一段词：“我们的世代，把厌世当一种习惯。或许这个世界，没什么值得期待，但那都与我无关。我是一个飞翔的笨蛋，人生本来该是一场狂欢”。
故事三星，起码是个完整的广东故事。但是我真的好爱这些材质处理和光影啊。希望以后国内动画都以此为标杆。
有略多尬笑
他是阿娟，有好朋友阿猫阿狗，为了想和父母团聚而参加比赛，为了证明自己而不断努力，木棉花开、四季流转，少年听见了心底雄狮的呐喊，也收获了自己的亲情、友情和爱情。年少时就是这样，不在乎结果、怕怂也勇敢，影片很细腻的表达了出来。
哪有什么歧视，好就是真的好。中国动画总被人诟病，但是做好做起来真的太难了……希望鼓励大于挑刺
本来我还能勉强说服自己是画风独特，结果导演采访里直接“比例基本类似于真人，不完全一样，但非常接近。”给我整不会了。那就是设计水平跟其他高质量作品有差呗，还请多多努力。
I am what I am. 如果这些励志片都是假的，那为什么每次看都让人热血沸腾呢!
国漫精进到这个水平了，太棒了！！！五星！音乐也是！
在离家期间看直接看哭，生活是越不过的擎天柱，有人还非得带着信念孤注一掷；有闲暇才能赞扬生活的昂扬斗气，更多的时候是不被人理解的孤苦无依。
又收割了我的一公升眼泪，虽然又燃又搞笑，但是我却在哭。只能说，文脉武脉，各有一支在岭南。
热血港片借狮还魂，视听体验还是挺好的（除了椅子那首歌真的不搭）。梦想和奇迹太耀眼夺目，最后那一跃迸发的能量也确实让人难以抵挡，可光芒之下现实的沉重也不该被无视，B故事里藏着更多真实的隐痛，可惜无法说太多。
很喜欢，即使有严重的周星驰痕迹。说实话中途差点落泪，草根孩子有梦想就永远都不会输~
不太适应人脸建模，前面入戏慢了。想二刷补一下前面漏掉的细节。这部电影不能说是2021年最好电影，因为它太棒了，我以后的人生都会有它的画面。
