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.
可能剧本还行，但导演真是太水了，音乐滥用，表演也差。。。
电影的名字是印度国歌，译为人民的意志。
观影后，我仿佛已经看到一个庞然大物正在缓慢崛起了，当某些群体习惯性的圈地自娱、一叶障目的放眼世界时，只会尽可能的把别人的不足摆在明面上借以衬托自身的优越，自身的恶劣极尽所能的掩藏起来。反观印度已经开始明白书写满文明只能让现实变得更加野蛮这道理。民主制度和反思的力量并不会如极权般的统治那样即刻发挥效力，但是可以胜在悠久绵长。激素只能兴奋一时，后患却是无穷的。不出意外，此消彼长之间最多三十到三十五年，这个可怕的邻居必将取代“某…”成为世界第二大经济体。
【B-】敢拍，会拍，但本质上还是套路化的印度犯罪庭审片。
有两次反转。刚开始看的时候想到了前段时间发生的唐山事件，当然这部电影不止于此。政治，教育，体制，法律，舆论，媒体，涉及的内容更多，以至于演员也多，对于脸盲患者来说有点困难。
观感减分地方真的很多，配乐瞎起，演技也不行。但是我们的电影技法明明比印度成熟那么多，高明的导演也多那么多。唉
电影的主题意义很值得褒奖，虽然有点贪心得想用一个事件把印度的社会问题给尽可能多得给塞进去，女性地位，媒体操纵舆论，制度体系崩塌，政治黑暗，阶级种姓，校园剥削，可能还有我漏掉的，虽然多，但本质上的确是互相勾连的，这种激烈的方式也真的很容易得到共鸣，印度电影在政治选题上的民主自由度和韩影有的一拼，直接且血淋淋。
这是拍给印度人看的吗？不止，这是拍给人看的
能拍敢拍三星起，中间是有点惊喜，但是总之太长了，没必要。
反转反转再反转再反转。
又一部印度神片，太厉害了！不得不说，印度就敢拍这一点，就让国内望尘莫及无数个层次！！！学术造假、性别歧视、媒体操控、公检法的万恶体制……几乎所有的点都说到了，个人认为任何人都应该看一看此片！除了震动、震撼、震惊……之外，我找不到词汇表达我看完之后的情绪；另外，很多时候，我们知道的真相真的就是真相么？真相背后是什么？真相是谁说的算的？其实都不重要，重要的是你相信了什么……连续反转，律师振聋发聩的诘问让人灵魂颤抖！！！
三星半。印度社会，总是以轰动全国而闻名，舆论造势，拨开云雾一个事件盖过另一事件，一个事件揭露另一个事件。社会荒谬，真相究竟是否会胜利
真相的多次反转，将故事的不同片段拼凑成完整的故事，不同的角度看到的是完全不同的故事，从英雄到黑手再到英雄，冒头仍然直指盘踞多年的种姓制度，不仅是好人受到种姓制度的伤害，哪怕是坏人也如此。女性歧视、高校腐败、政治黑暗、无良媒体、高压手段等等社会问题都集中展现出来。电影未必值得这么高的分数，不过却散发出了与种姓制度抗争到底的点点火种，时间的设定如此的近也説明了问题的根深蒂固以及任重道远，也有对未来胜利的期待
题材大胆，多重反转，已经很好看了，秒杀如今的一众国产电影
看到最后，才明白谁和谁是宿敌。印度真的很敢拍啊，这个题材，政党操控舆论，扭曲真实，你所相信的都是被加工的真相，所谓的坚守正义可能只是坚守着速食咖啡一样的即时正义......蛮牛的，国内绝无可能的题材。就是叙事稍有些乱，能理解是为了不断反转的爽感而刻意为之，姑且当作一种风格吧。推荐
这么一来，拍这么一部电影，不光不会被封杀，还有可能专门拨款助力向全世界推广呢。
太冗长了，而且学生会那个女的，还有那四个罪犯莫名就让人痛恨，以至于后面揭开了幕后，还是感觉前面那几个人可恨，观感不好
反转再反转，加上配乐很紧张，确实看的一愣一愣。但是人物符号扁平，督查从好人变坏人再变好，完全为了情节反转服务，律师半路杀出来感觉是另一个电影的主角，大反派政客真的肮脏，对比大学女教授真的圣母。最大的问题是主题混乱，一开始以为是督查伸张正义，中段以为是即时正义与程序正义之争，反转到后来发现整个剧铺垫，是为了引出续集。
最后的15分钟更像是第二部的预告片，又或者有太多需要表达和传递的能量。电影或者一切作品的初心究竟是说什么故事还是怎么说故事？
印度电影在亚洲已经攀上顶流！
