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.
整体是好看的，也是舒适的。如果喜欢水形物语，就很大可能喜欢玉面情魔。影调质感一如既往还是陀螺的那股味儿，只是不知道毫无现代反思的翻拍意义是陀螺的童心未泯，还是自我风格的自我致敬？
复古精致，视觉的饕餮盛宴！骗中骗、蛇蝎美人、西装革履的斯文败类、一场阴谋以及一段危险关系，能看出陀螺对好莱坞黄金时代的缅怀与执念。也许是“不合时宜”的电影，但也是如今这个充斥着快餐文化的时代所需要的电影。带着五味杂陈的心情写下这段感受，但也许再过几分钟我就只在乎《奇异博士2》《蜘蛛侠》们到底能不能上？！
有点浪费时间，剧情复古，服化道合格，演员怎么集体掉线？脱节了。

画面是真的很美。之前在电影院看到预告，就挺疑惑，这么多大咖，这是个什么奇奇怪怪不知所云的预告😂看完了只想说，搞这么大阵仗，就讲了个这😂😂如果不是前面太过于平缓冗长，其实后面还不错👌
我觉得斯坦就是失败版的哪吒，物理上的弑父（神婆的酒鬼老公某种意义上也是他的父亲）并没有斩断其精神上与父权的联系，社会反而加重了他的“恋父情结”，磨毁了他内心的纯真，从他歧视并谋杀没有男子气概的亲生父亲、送毒酒毒死灵魂父亲且没有听他的劝告开始，他注定是重蹈覆辙的下场，结尾形成一种精妙绝伦的轮回。无法不想到《巴里·林登》，男人真的是被男权毒害了还不自知，被人拐了还帮人数钱。库珀虽然红脖化严重然而我依然可以（为了他的裸体吧），布兰切特表演最佳，什么叫气质美人啊.jpg
为导演对氛围的把握加一星，服化道、音乐、年代感一流，演员选角加分、表演不功不过，情节只改了细枝末节。原作是一个可能因酗酒导致精神错乱的作者写的纯意识流小说，是比较通俗的黑色故事，类似骗子害人害己、苦果自尝云云，但里面没有赢家。电影不足之处在于对斯坦的过去省略太多，以至他的人物性格未能建立起来。他不是那种无所畏惧的恶棍，却在某种因素的驱使下恶贯满盈，但他又有着某一类聪明人那种天真——这是他爱上心理医生并最终被她欺骗的原因，不过毁掉他的还是他自己。这种程度的黑暗多一分像戏剧、少一分又不到位，不偏不倚到让人怀疑这是否就是命运真正的模样。话说回来，抛开二位我钟爱的主角不谈，精致的服化道、克制的对白、老派的转场、舞台剧般贴近和膨胀的氛围...这就是我最爱的黑色电影标配，其余通通可以不计较。
8.2/10 这种故事必须是大起大落，必须是悲剧收束。影片的立项就注定了它的悲剧性。但我确实喜欢这种奇幻的故事，喷薄的张力。另马戏团的骗局总是让我想到费里尼，自然是互相造就。
老套冗长，但怪人让我想到最近那个新闻里的女人，在火车站或者破旅馆被拐卖，会在夜深人静时絮絮叨叨“我本非如此”、“我本非如此”。另一句台词也能让我想到最近的新闻，“那个长得像卓别林的小瘪犊子入侵了波兰”。最后，大魔王和鲁妮玛拉居然没有任何对手戏，这绝对构成欺诈。
前面铺垫有点长，只是为了结局的geek。在后期的blanchett的目的和动力，实在是藏的有点深，塑造的太少了。后面实在是为主角揪心为什么这么甘愿当geek，后来想了想这就是命吧，藏在自己心底的噩梦，一直都或多或少影响着你的一生，决定你的命运。
摄影服装和美术视觉方面就像入口就化的牛奶巧克力，你可以相信《水形物语》的导演在这方面的绝对质感。但除此以外真的就像一滩烂泥，又长又臭又稀巴烂。故事完全没有让人看下去的欲望，如果不是几个奥斯卡戛纳影帝影后级的卡司阵容，这片子绝对就崩了。我不喜欢这种明明不复杂但却搞得看似特别深邃和拿捏的劲儿。当然，演员没有提奥斯卡个人奖项也是有道理的。剧情限制了演员的发挥，太拿架子了，看的让人不舒服。

4.5，没看过原作，2.30小时不觉得长，意犹未尽。
怎么说呢，陀螺拍非幻想类题材的电影的成功率与他能否克制住自己的恶趣味正相关。如果马戏团的部分稍稍克制些，成片会好很多。
我还是愿意花一个半小时去看一个人搬起石头砸自己的脚，而不是两个半……有一种把I'm 硬拉长成my name is的感觉
陀螺这回好像想事无巨细，面面俱到的把故事呈现出来，可结果就是长的离谱，反而放大了故事的缺点。但服化道还是一如既往的精致，另外鲁妮玛拉很美（*/∇＼*）。
我怎么感觉这要是在中国，这老板真是无敌的好老板，这些员工才全是刁民，呵呵
7.0/10 美术还是很不错的。非常私人的作者电影，本质上充斥的是怀旧情绪，缅怀了一去不复返的往昔。最后主角的阶级跌落形成一个完整的闭环，但已经与noir没太大关系了，而与nostalgic有关，从A故事上看他是被动的选择回归，但从B故事上看他必然回到马戏团这个场所，只有这样才能找回归属感，因为那是他无法逃离的“家”，这可能也是德托罗为什么执意要把第一幕写的这么长，最终回到原点即是以最病态的方式怀念旧时光。 #补标#
越发想看原版 库珀我不想提 他不红是有道理的 你们凯特大魔王那段戏我看了两遍 惊叹于她与黑色电影里蛇蝎美人的完美融合 太迷人热烈了
“墨西哥三杰”里，我最无感的就是陀螺。新电影看完，更无感了。和原版没差，他“翻拍”了一遍，没有创新。
