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.
非常工整！结构上，节奏上，角色上，表演上！这是我桑的最后一部剧情电影了，要珍惜啊！！
两个🌟送给女主以及任何同鲑鱼厂有关的戏。这种剧本，戏剧冲突层层绕，本质是melodrama，人物是散的，甚至是工具化的，全靠situation推进，很美剧的写法，很假。sandra bullock爆发砸东西那场更是假…
后悔提前看了公众号的剧透 不然应该蛮精彩的
接这个电影，桑德拉布洛克就是奔着表演奖去的。里面那个黑人警察说得挺好，你要活在当下，不能活在20年前。里面有问题的人，都是活在过去的缘故。但是，又哪能这么容易走出来啊。
以三年A班的形式开展，以误杀瞒天记的形式进行，用印度女性题材一贯的主题强奸为真相。虽然题材不算新颖，但表现也不差，主要是强奸的男人都该死。
能改变印度这种丧尽天良的风气
虽然有着差不多的结构和叙事
虽然但是 就真的完全想到了《三年A班》啊 艺术创作真的太好用别人的创意了 😭
如果將妹妹改為女兒，感受上會更加虐心，但故事設定的基礎本身就缺乏合理性，所以是妹妹還是女兒就無所謂了。
似曾相识的赎罪剧情，换成大女主来演。关于社会对有前科者的包容度的探讨，此外也没什么了。桑德拉布洛克的演技值得一项提名。
前面一直看得很难受，反转也挺难受，可至少还有点希望。桑德拉布洛克啊也老了。摸鱼看完。
中间剧情实在有些幼稚，但主题鲜明，还是值得一看
题材很棒，通过电影表达强烈主题，尽管PM部分有点不切实际，但不影响值得一看，女主演技出色，这类呼吁保障女性权益的社会题材影片可以更多些。
裹脚布剧情。强行等等等。。。不值得高分。下次看评分要多点人才行。。
【7.2/10】能猜到背后有隐情，老师不会真的伤害孩子，前面悬念即便做再好也不会很惊悚。印度女性生活在水深火热之中，所以从真相上来说并不新鲜，但在其环境下社会意义还是很大。本片制作应该挺大，搞得印度人好像都是在都市，人们生活得都挺光鲜，警察好像也挺高端，国家挺文明还有个厉害的女总理。电影最大的bug在一切都太理想化了，事情几乎都按着她一个菜鸟罪犯的掌控在发展，要么运气不错没出太大纰漏，男女两人反抗都被女主一人干倒了，男警官知道女主动机后，立马真心忏悔自我检讨，我们太想出名了忽略了伤害，总理也很圣人不顾危险同意来现场和罪犯面谈。最后反转我倒是没想到，但是不是也有点硬呢，那么一个坏人，从开始就表现得就是一个怂男人。
3星，这类社会题材，印度电影跟韩国电影一样，只能拍出来，现实很难解决实际问题，只能自我安慰。
好故事，但却不是一部好电影。但是片子的诚意在这儿。
全片下来最震撼的是片尾字幕。希望这部片子能推动印度司法进程。希望不会再有受害者被迫衍生泛犯罪。片子给的很直，没刻意营造悬疑，这点是好的，但细节上的人员不专业很不好，表演力度不够，整体需要提升。
能铺垫80分钟还不知道到底要干嘛的谜面就像是先看了一集明星大侦探，还好女总理的一句“Emotions can be assets”和对性别刻板印象的反击总算让人觉得来了点劲。而那个关于强奸的谜底则在母亲的一句反问中完全揭晓，后面的紧张甚至和总理面谈的高潮也变成了可预见的补充。对印度社会问题和女性困境的直击，以及对女警察、女总理、女主播和母亲等女性角色的着力没能挽回叙事节奏的失衡。
近两年印影愈发优秀了，里面的女性角色充满光辉
