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.

就是说，基本定位还是小成本青春疼痛片来着，但不太出戏，镜头语言也算合格，虽然很浅显简陋…主要还是架不住今天的观影体验太奇妙：由于忘记带眼镜，柔光滤镜反而不显得突兀…结束后片尾致谢被掐断，还以为影院要赶我们走了，结果是意料外的主演导演见面会…还很nice合照了。总之，体验很好…
昨天买的预售的票，今天刚刚看完，真的太过瘾了，超过期待好多好多，今年最好看的电影，没有之一，虽然没看过原著，但是剧情真的很过瘾，葛大爷往那一站就是古董，雷大头演技也杠杠的，最让人吃惊的是李现，不太了解他，只知道现男友这个代名词，今天让药不然把我帅疯了，演技也很可，总而言之太哇塞了，哈哈，值得一看(到现在还在激动，沉浸在药不然美色中)😂
希望这种国产无脑商业冒险寻宝爽片能再多一点，缓解一下内卷之国国民的生活之苦。
純粹是為了李現去看的，台詞很棒了 終於不是男花瓶了
演员好，制作好，故事好，为啥看着就是不得劲？整个故事的逻辑我都没看明白，这到最后，真相不还是把佛头送出去了么？这汗奸也没洗清啊？还留了个悬疑尾，这个要打算拍第二部吗？
而主创们对这一问题采取了只陈述不解释的态度，也不知是根本没意识到问题的严重性，还是心有余悸不便明说。
本片的阵容也比较强大，薛景求和文素丽的合作曾经创造了象《薄荷糖》与《绿洲》这样的经典，但在本片中他俩的对手戏并不多。吴达洙复出了。

这几年来少见的比较单纯的爆米花喜剧爽片，加上制作精良就是单纯的好看。配角比部分主角写得好，人物丰满高光之处一瞬间以为葛优是隐藏主角。情感和社会性也有但并非重点，好看在于两方打怪升级寻宝的较量，智商对决，虽然看上去是寻宝故事，但其实是个推理解谜电影，编剧设计谜面花了很大功夫，推理过程毫不敷衍，重心全在这，谜底反转效果也很好，猜到了第一层的人物身份没猜到最后，没看过原著应该很难猜，真相揭晓后有种难以言喻的酸爽。当然也可能是很久没看这种解谜爽片了，导致并不怎么在乎主线之外的情感线。整体调性很像多年以前徐克的狄仁杰系列，这个故事确实适合系列化。
古董局中局，大佛头里头。阴在阳之内，真在假之间。
就非得拍成《鬼吹灯之古董局中局》吗？古董鉴定的部分少之又少，还算什么古董局中局？很失望。
她们一起看了《蓝宇》 就像我高三那天还半夜偷偷看一样 只是那时我是自己一个人
剧情有些还是不那么严谨，但主题和视角挺新颖。校园霸凌，这次聚焦的不是作恶的孩子，而是不以为意更徇私舞弊的父母，更揭示了这种恶屡禁不止，就是家长的庇护和无视造成了孩子的仗势欺人。后面几番反转也很有意思。本来以为攻守同盟的家长团体，突然因为孩子们讨厌其中一个同伴而把他推出来顶缸，刚开始还有所不解，后来真相大白发现原来那个同伴一开始是霸凌的受害者，因为自己的害怕和懦弱出卖了朋友成了新的霸陵团体一员，也是挺让人唏嘘的。全员恶人的权贵家长，即使看似公正的前警察也不例外，分工合作，玩弄受害者与法律于股掌之间，又黑暗又血淋淋的。最后一番律师父亲无意发现，自己以为可怜被欺凌只是误入歧途的孩子才是幕后悲剧真凶，那种一时震撼与恐惧，但平静后仍是毁灭证据掩盖真相，最后一刻恢复平常，挺黑暗也挺现实，反而力度感很强。
跟李现对戏的雷佳音宛如影帝，面部表情生动得令人感动。

被害者很容易就成为加害者，比起孩子，始终是大人更坏
我猜导演拍到结局圆不回来打算放弃了，许一城这还不是把真的送给日本人了，守护了个啥，这要是日本人不送回来这后面咋演
。
坏人太坏，不够立体。这么看起来，纯粹的坏人竟然还没有底层互害的人可恨。
