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.
088号。带给我超多惊喜的作品，将潮汕文化表达得有滋有味，从外地媳妇回家这个小冲突开始，逐步加磅（准媳妇的婚史是对全中国婆婆的挑战），由此将两代人的差异由潮汕升发到了全国（婆婆男主未婚妻三人挤在小摩托上的画面极具深意），有了更深刻的意义。男主的妈妈是最大公约数的妈妈，固执、勤俭又满怀对孩子的爱，看到片名我懂了，一切都是love啊。
太棒了，作为一个“外省”女婿，很多细节我是有共鸣的，喜欢这样的小片。
你不看我不看，导演啥时候能出圈。素人演员非常亲切可爱，看导演说有些台词是演员用自己的语言发挥的，虽然听不懂潮汕话也能感到自然。机场追了人却只是送了特产笑死人了，套路中的小逆反加分。
"欢迎潮汕话加入2022乡村爱情故事电影大赛"...某种程度上算在深潮汕人特供片吧...各种南山镜头...回家房间那段王家卫差点要叫律师了...机场飞机在车窗倒影也很有技巧..."仿佛看到了中国电影的希望"...
看完好想去潮汕走走逛逛吃吃然后了解一下是怎样的风土人情大家庭会有泽凯这样平和从容的青年，太喜欢这样写实的电影了。
潮汕人觉得很真实，演得也真的很自然。最后妈妈在飞机上眼眶含泪说“你妈是不是很没用”的时候真的我也看哭了。
中规中矩的乡土电影和旅游景点宣传片。就表演和故事，以及摄影，值3星。剩下一星是鼓励性质的。
女性相处片段。算命门口。挤来挤去。
越来越喜欢也越来越想看看这种发掘本土文化的方言电影，可能是语言逻辑和叙事铺垫更加亲切吧。故事情节可能老套，但是当它不着痕迹地融入到市井生活里，并不觉得乏味。
田螺弯弯为仔死。
妈妈演的是最好的。婚姻问题和家庭文化问题混合起来写作的关键，就是矛盾出现了，要知道到底哪个问题才是最重要的问题？两个人在一起的核心到底是啥呢？
很有诚意的电影，每个地方都有每个地方的嫁娶困局。女主很大气
总之，真实的生活，真实的好笑，真实的眼眶发酸
电影又好笑又感动又不落俗套，完全不用担心听不懂潮汕话，因为情感与故事都是共通的。
也可以透过表象的问题，看出一个更深层次的事实。
难以融入，不过愿意了解。
难以融入，不过愿意了解。
母亲是最佳女主角。手机镜头里的母亲，你在想什么啊，笑。
如果全部是群众演员的话，演技确实比专业演员好一点
潮汕人支持系列之又一部。故事本身并没那么吸引，比较容易猜，或许还是看一些些情怀在支撑。妈妈一角挺符合印象中的潮汕女性，不过我觉得应该是比较像在拜拜习俗相对浓的地区的妈妈。有些地方妈妈和男主还是有点不大自然，但语言的使用还是保留得挺好的，特别那些语气粗口，挺到位挺有感觉。3颗星，有一颗是鼓励，希望未来能更突破。
