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.
剧本很扎实，前面的铺垫初看有点拖沓，却在后半段起了巨大的作用。信息化时代，地球果然扁平化了，那些发生在其他国度的事情，就像某些投影…
这哪里是一部电影，简直就是一颗火种。被人家操纵还自以为是正义，大众沦为棋子，情绪被政治利用，容易被煽动的人群只顾闷头前行，却从不停下来思考。影片抽丝剥茧还原真相，剧情一波三折，高潮迭起，看的酣畅淋漓。不要总渴望别人恩赐，自己起来做舵手吧！
前面一小时用于铺陈的节奏稍慢，后期的反转还不错，全方位的揭露了社会问题（何止印度，呵呵）还是我们的审核制度好，看不到就是没有……
7.5，近年来印度电影佳作频出，博采众长、表现出惊人的成长，逐渐摆脱“歌舞片”之刻板印象。两小时四十分的时长导致叙事略显拖沓，整体上情绪＞叙事，但胜在承继于歌舞片传统的情绪调动能力，情节数次反转之间情绪渐高。还有令人惊叹的主题承载：体制、媒体、女性主义、阶级、政治等等，更讶异的是各方主题完成度都算不错，并且与剧情融合极佳。
3、种姓，阶级问题
可能为了避免激起观看者强烈的情绪，配乐都是很缓和悠长又哀伤的，没有什么很强律动的配乐。
挺有意思的，讲了很多印度🇮🇳社会问题，反转也蛮精彩的。近来看的最有意思的电影。
真正难的是起树疙瘩，当你把地面挖开，那张复杂的脉络才显露出冰山一角来。你觉得树根在地下可能只有半米见方大小，但无数条树根可能已经延伸到数米远的地下，跟土壤紧紧得结合在一起。
每次看到这种超高评分的片子，总会特意不去看简介和别人的影评，生怕被剧透而减少了观影的乐趣。
你以为的真相不是真相，你以为的正义可能不是正义，所以永远不要愤怒得太早。如果只有前半段，值3星，后半段一连串的反转和引发的思考让它值得5星。
每个妖怪都在提醒着夏目，他人类几十年的寿命在妖怪的一生中多么短暂，它们将来一定会怀念和夏目遇见的这短暂的一瞬间，不知道对立于当下，以人类的尺度还有漫长一生在眼前的夏目而言，是怎么样错乱的心情。

今年的印度高分电影好多。
最后律师啥情况没整明白，警察那段搞清楚了。好烦，拍的如此隐晦。
里面要讲的故事都是好故事，但这部电影没有讲好这些故事。但还是感谢这部电影让我认识了印度，让我再次意识到政治的残忍和民众的无可奈何，民众只能被操纵不是吗，他们只能被给出的部分真相牵着鼻子走。以及，这部电影最后不还是落到了政治斗争上面吗？只有哪边获胜更让民众受益罢了。
像印度菜一样，重口味调料放太多，吃不出到底是什么东西了已经。只贩卖主题和情绪的电影反正我嗨不起来。
虽然学生运动过于急切，法庭辩护离题千里，但是，太讽刺了
也没多复杂的剧情 东绕西绕扯了将近三个小时 实在有点受不了。
是一个很好的剧本，只是节奏不太好。透过不正义手段去追求所谓“正义的结果”，并试图以此将过程合理化，是一件危险的事情。
确实敢拍 我们所有能看到的消息都是想让我们看到的
