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.
韩国拍这种题材（真实改编）已经轻车熟路了，每次看完都会震撼到。女主演技稍微用力，其他人都挺自然的。
🇰🇷真的属于一边讽刺财阀，一边拿着财阀的💰拍电影。。。但不得不说嘲讽和真实，🇰🇷电影真的可以！
部分交代不完整，但是最后法院门口众人一起喊口号的瞬间，竟然有些热泪盈眶，群众的力量。
本来以为是惊悚片，原来是社会政治片。这种吸入的东西最好里面别加添加剂。
愤怒，悲哀，中规中矩的一部维权电影，但是背后被加湿器喷剂伤害的家庭是最可怜的
前奏有点无趣 直到敏智爸爸反转 后面挺符合韩剧一贯水准 普通百姓压根无法和资本权贵斗争
整部电影就是很平的，我不想说真实事件如何如何，电影就一般般。
没有音乐剧那么感人🥺但是表演会细腻一些？有生之年我能看到官摄吗🥺去现场也行
以前看过这个新闻，说实话有些惊讶，只因为空气无影无形使得人忽略它的重要性，可根本的原因是消费者对政府及产品广告的信任，资本可以拍拍屁股走人，人却没有复生的机会，政府可以当甩手掌柜，那谁来为弱势群体主持公道？
加一星因为情怀！谢谢埃文汉森，看了还是很感动，是时不时就会拿出来听的那种
虽然同作者不如再也写不出素媛这样的神作，但他一直在坚持他的坚持
为故事加一星，节奏真的太差了，导演功力不行，李善彬的演技好捉急。
给三星我真的看着musical 的面子给的，看了现场真的是直击心灵，结果这部片子真的是为了拍而拍，叙事结构就很无语，更别说整个片子的节奏了，我本来拿这部的制作对照的是lalaland，结果算了，根本不是一个档次，只能说你把现场musical 整场录一个4k都好，非要拍一个电影，可惜了这么好的音乐剧，这么好的演员，musical真是好评不断，也拿奖，这电影拍出来我真的无力吐槽。
结局反转，我还以为那个男的哭是因为好不容易升官了紧接着就完蛋了😂
太冗长 还是棒子剧情电影 事故让人痛心 可是电影张力不够
人间最是伤心处，只余新人哭旧坟，所以，请不要忘记那些曾经的悲剧，请记住那些危害过民众的企业，他们不值得被原谅，
社恐患者 碰巧遇到 自杀问题家庭，治愈着自己而也治愈了这个家庭，在孤独的人也配有朋友，最后没有商业般双赢，没有特别煽情的结局，生活还是继续
故事挺完整都 也有反转 也有冲突 就很规矩的片
佩服韩国人敢于挑战政府的勇气，但是叙述起来不是感觉没有很详细，有些交代不清楚的感觉。
三星半，太久没看过这种题材了，棒子国还是很敢。
