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.
8/10前半部分让观众都陷入其中，相比之下后半部分剧情太弱了。如果没有第三部，这一部最好的结局就是在跳下楼顶，再也没飞起来，这才是自由之路。
自己复制自己，自己解构自己，那是资本家好糊弄，还是观众好糊弄，还是导演自己好糊弄？这片子的唯一好处就是，回忆一下好久之前早就忘光了情节的黑客帝国三部曲
作为一个第一部是租VCD看的枪版，后来看了几十遍的中年影迷，这部电影已经是情怀叙旧，爷青回，活久见了，所以打满分，还是会去电影院支持的
但事实证明，
The Matrix Resurrections是场百味陈杂的怀旧，在大多数情况下感受着演员们对重启的困惑以外，还能够看到以往的Matrix三部曲是多么得难以超越，以至于能达到超越不了即是失望的地步。
虽说基本是粉丝向续集，不过沃卓斯基这个恶搞吐槽自嘲的劲头，多少也有点当年特里吉列姆的感觉了。当年有多炫目的视觉先锋，现在就有多暴躁不羁的自戳双目。
你能想象有一天黑客帝国的水准还不如小贱贱的失控玩家吗？不能吧 so yeah, the world is fucked up already.
冗长，最喜欢的居然是吐槽华纳那段，中间穿插着前三部曲的零碎镜头，这不是给粉丝强行弄出来的，也没有别的拍出来的理由了。
本年度最佳爽剧，导演太幽默了，前半部分拿老板华纳兄弟公司开涮，于是理所应当地开启了后半部分来满足观众的需求（老板们认为的主流观众需求）。看完我跟发财说，黑客帝国系列其实就是有被迫害妄想症患者内心世界的绝佳展现，所以片中的精神医生被攻击，正如我们老师们说到与Psychose工作的时候要承受很多攻击。但是相比神经症（痛苦来在于外界世界与自我的冲突）来说，精神病病人才是改变世界规则的人，虽然可能后果有好有坏。
看完Matrix 4了，怎么说呢，前半个小时觉得剧情蛮有趣，喜欢大量自黑；中间一个小时，开始安慰自己，如果不跟前三部比，好像还行；最后开始想什么破玩意，我看的是丧尸电影么，Trinity飞起来怎么跟超人一模一样。。。 唯一的收获是再次看到Reeves不留胡子的样子了。。。
女性觉醒、摆脱家庭、奔向自由，崔尼蒂从之前的辅助变成C位，电影不管是外在的色调、动作设计还是内在的主题都跟原三部曲不太契合，这更像是拉娜沃卓斯基变性后借助黑客帝国这个科幻大IP的个人表达。即便在看过预告之后就充分调低了预期，也没想到能全方位拉垮到这个地步，美剧级的炒冷饭(好像辱美剧了…)
按正常理解，2-3星，很失望；按我的另类理解，5星神作。我的长影评近日贴出。
区区20年，没有什么比沃卓斯基兄弟变沃卓斯基姐妹更科幻的了
🎥故事题材：
全片唯一的亮点来自第121分钟，尼奥一个标志性的帅动作没飞起来。
草莓，摩托车，起飞
被掩盖身份的游戏设计师尼奥在Matrix之后的新作叫做Binary，如同对这部近乎非黑即白的二元式续作的自喻；沦为流民的法国人对新版矩阵的咒骂，更像是沃卓斯基对这个时代喃喃自语陈词滥调的牢骚。当曾经那些成为经典的影像穿插其中时，这部作品在效果上其实是一次通过对前作文本自身进行浅显解构而写就的无聊社论。
2.5。在《矩阵重启》里，基努·里维斯饰演的不是尼奥，不是约翰，也不是强尼银手——更像是基努·里维斯本人参加了一个《黑客帝国》纪念真人秀。ps：如果更喜剧一点我还能当SNL看。
我悟了，这不是黑客帝国 ，这是Neo被困在了一个John Wick叫矩阵里。
不好说烂，第一幕一度让人感到惊讶，可惜越往后就越没劲了，最终不过是套黑客的壳填当下的料再讲一遍超感的核罢了。
